The lack of branching in the book is something I can see a reasonable argument for. If you assume that most people will only read the book once, then having major branches isn't that important. You get a longer game for your money if the path is linear. That said, this book really did feel like a gauntlet, where you get shuffled from one encounter to the next with few to no breaks in the action. Didn't we get three fights back-to-back-to-back? EDIT: vvv poo poo, right, let's go kill us a Balrog and rescue a Silmaril! Or maybe one of the Trees, it's kinda hard to tell.

Tiggum posted:‘Dwarf King Ryvin of Bor is in desperate need of our aid, my lords,’ began Rimoah, earnestly. ‘An ancient horror has been awoken in the depths of his subterranean kingdom, and now it threatens to destroy his realm. The Drodarin race may be doomed unless we are able to overcome this creature … and swiftly.’ Well, does this reminds anyone else of a different book? "Moria, Moria! Wonder of the Northern world! Too deep we delved there, and woke the nameless fear." I really hope for this to have been a coincidence, but... Decoy Badger posted:A new Discipline: Bardsmanship - We will flaut all their attacks!

The Fall of Blood Mountain posted:Lone Wolf places the Sun-crystal in the palm of your hand, and then he closes your fingers around is multi-faceted surface. At once you sense that the gentle warmth of this artefact belies a tremendous power that is locked within its core. (Record the Sun-crystal on your Action Chart as a Special Item which you keep in the pocket of your tunic. You must discard another item in its favour if you already possess the maximum number of Special Items permissible.)

The Fall of Blood Mountain posted:Vagel escorts you through the great hall and into an adjoining chamber that is stacked to the ceiling with weapons and martial equipment. The barrel-chested dwarf beams with pride as he encourages you to take whatever you wish from his regimental weapons store. From among the polished racks of arms and armour, the following items catch your discerning eye: We can take a weapon and/or an extra quiver if we want, too.

The Fall of Blood Mountain posted:You draw an Arrow to your Bow and send it arcing across the quarry to strike the lizard-faced creature squarely in the chest. The beast spins around, staggers backwards, and then emits a chilling scream before collapsing to the ground. Upon hearing their leader’s death-cry, the minions turn and run as if gripped by a blind panic. You seize this chance to break cover and race towards the pit shaft at the base of the quarry’s north wall.
