TD Ticket Update - 1 Week til GENCON!
In 2013 our plans call for us to add an additional adventure to the event. There will be two consecutive adventure modules, and each module will have two variations of either a combat or puzzle orientation. The first module called “Lycans Afoot” tasks the party to travel through a dark forest in search of a tower, while the second module called “Golembane” challenges the party to reach the top of tower.

Yeah no luck is going to save you from 20 points per hit of darkrift damage for hitting the monster in melee. Especially when you slide two pucks and hit both times. And those 50 point breath attacks don't just tickle.

Shirt last year would have been great :) but we did not have it. Yeah I had Trilliant and Sphere :) and 5th Monk so I was all good. 50pt breath fail save = 5 points of damage.

Ya, the shirt would have rocked last year. I nearly gibbed myself sneak attacking the dragon last year.

Curious about the breakdown between Lycans and Golem on Thursday. Is it tilted towards Golem?

Fantastic! Maybe we'll get another 41 new players signed up by the time GENCON rolls around :)

Looks like Jeff really hit the sweet spot for # of runs/ticket cost this year. Lets just hope that running four full dungeons goes well!

Thanks for the updates, I have enjoyed them. :)

It's great that it's a near sellout and that it took all the way to GENCON. There should be a ton of new players this year. Everyone that wanted a ticket should have gotten one, although I suspect some of these last Nightmare tickets went to new players that only got them because they were all that was left.
