EPISODE 77:
Leaving The Nest

How about that yellow highlights in the text? Are they coming from the originals?

I believe it is an editor's copy, but it is the only version I have available. I assume they would have had a finalized version that was distributed at conventions. At this point we are well beyond the adventures that used to be available at the ZGG website.

I find it nice that episode 77 is fundamentally and introductory episode for first level characters, after four years of campaign
I'm pretty sure I will use it in my campaign, next round a group of new players will join.

Glad you think you can find some use for it!
I am sure they wanted to find ways to introduce new players to the campaign without having to go back to the old intro adventures?

I agree. Glad they did it, so we have more ways to introduce new players (and characters) to Blackmoor, without necessarily going through te Comeback Inn.

The Comeback Inn (the estabilishment, not this website) is a great starting point for introducing Blackmoor (in fact it is in Episode 1 of the MMRPG and in DA1), but if you have several waves of players joining a game, you can't run Episode 1 or DA1 every single time, telling them that they are having a very rare experience

Yeah I was just joking thinking you meant those website. :lol:
But you make an excellent point. It's great having several low level options to enter the MMRPG .
