I aim for multi role personally, for example my current party leader is a warrior/archer/mage/priest.... Annoying to train but he did start out as an archer warrior.

Damned shame, although maybe another designer will do a "fan" sequel sometime in the future. They were really enjoyable scenarios...

Not a bad experiment at all, I might start my own like this. Maybe with a party though, possibly even working a storyline in about them. While have singleton versions going as well.

Okay so I have mentioned in passing a few times, I've spoken with TM and he drove me to improve one of the kep turning points in the scenario. Anyway as it's my first scenario I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help with design ideas and such.

At the moment I have the main town layout sketched but I can't think for the outsideyet except for the three walls of the valley and the blocked entrance.

What do you mean by "win/finish"?

And Twilight Vale will be released before the Scenario Contest deadline in Novemeber. I'm praying for a beta call at the end of September.

You can finish it a lot easier then you can win it. There is two endings available.

Jumping Salmon I think I might just use option two although I was going to have only the musclebound idiot there, I'll now have shade appear and have a go at the musclebound idiot for taking so long. It will repeat the orders then give him a scroll so that it doesn't have to keep reminding him then it will disappear and the party will fall through the door for some light humour.

The attacker is part of the main villain's entourage, he is going to be a musclebound idiot hence the orders scroll. The scenario is a win/finish scenario, hence the hidden room otherwise I'd make it easy to find the interesting ending instead of making them work for it (yes you can thank TM for pointing me in that direction).

Okay so I'm making a Scenario called Avalanche, I've been talking with TM about it but I have a little snag, one part of it I can't think of how to do.

Section is: You find a small hidden study after feeling an unexplained breeze, upon entering your attacked then you can look around in there.

Should your attcker drop a scroll mentioning where to go? If so then here's the idea. "Return to my house then enter the hidden study near the stairs, the door is along the west wall near the stairs. Once in there search the room for a scrap of paper from my journal. If anyone finds that all our planning will be wasted." Anyone think of anything better?

Either way you'll have to find that scrap of paper in that room.

Beta Call in Blades of Avernum

I'm still going to be releasing the scenario as well as uploading the item stats, the reason I'm releasing is that I am expanding the scenario. In a way that makes it similar to a training scenario, although you'll have to work for your levels and your gold. It will also be offering new items and creature types as well and the first release will be tomorrow on both fronts (stats and scenario).

(EDIT) Teaser: Tomb Maker (1 handed sword) - 1-12 points of damage plus 1-12 points per level of Strength and Melee weapon skill, +35 damage to Demons, Undead, giants and attackers. Rarity: Found at the end of training run, Value: understated and being modified.

I'm after beta testers to test new items, I've coded and for custom items and characters to me included in the scenario. All custom characters must use standard graphics or include custom graphics. Everyone who says yes must be willing to recieve a fair few versions before the final release and to be willing to reply with honest opinions on the items included with each release.

EDIT: Recieved one response, more please people. I'm only asking for people to test items and to pick them up from a storage scenario then go out and use them in any other scenario they want.
