As the characters flee Slither in “Marauders of the Dune Sea” I changed the last encounter to have them choose where they would make their last stand against the outriders. With some good role-playing and some good skill checks, they evade Slither long enough to find the exact location they wanted to meet the coming enemy. With one of the players doing some extra things, the group is allowed to make their way to canyons rather than meet the outriders on open desert. This translated into me providing the group the pieces of canyon and sand terrain and had them assemble it however they wanted. (more…)

But for the finale of the adventure I couldn’t diminish it with such simplicity, so I decided to create a 3D set where combat would take place. (more…)
