Episode 11, Part 3: Hall of the Fire Giant King (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Three episodes and eight parts in the making, Russell and Jeramy finally reach the end of the vaunted G series and come face to face with the namesake of a whole different set of modules: D for Drow. And Gary Gygax isn’t going to limp across the G3: Hall of the Fire Giant King finish line: he’s mixing in a healthy dose of tentacles and madness with all the fire, doubling up on the ways to get insta-killed in lava, dropping what appear to be FOUR dragons, and perhaps most importantly, ending with

Read excerpt
The second part of G3: Hall of the Fire Giant King is notable not for fire giants, though there are plenty. It’s notable as the first chance most parties will encounter the problem behind the problem… the mysterious (and brand new to 1978) Drow! Along the way they encounter the prototypical lava-powered smithy with a very tempting magical weapon, a collection of increasingly unpleasant prison and torture rooms, and Russell plays several rounds of everyone’s new favorite game: Do You Trust That N

The flaming finale of the G-series starts off by immediately subverting expectations.

And things don’t get any easier from there. As they roam the obsidian halls, Russell and Jeramy encounter a seemingly never ending supply of fire giants, some more exotic foes come to pay their respects to the fire king, and an inf

Read excerpt
The adventure reaches its finale as Russell and Jeramy push into the ancient mausoleum beneath the monastery and finally confront the evil lurking at the heart of B5: Horror on the Hill. And by confront, we mean potentially adopt it out to two old ladies in lieu of payment for services rendered. But before that can happen, the boys have to survive a killer king, get the lowdown on two berserker roommates, try to recruit a gelatinous cube to join the party, join the kobold lava throw Olympics, an

Read excerpt
It’s into the evil… err… chaotic monastery in part 2 of B5: Horror on the Hill and Jeramy and Russell have a classic old school dungeon crawl on their hands, packed with goblinoids, secret doors, strange cults, and a magical fountain that lets you gamble with your ability scores. As they seek the hobgoblin king, they encounter some valuable allies, including a few very good boys and a stereotypical “dwarf imprisoned to work as a blacksmith” as well as a veritable boatload of gear and treasure.
