So I am nonetheless putzing round with Tunnels & Trolls solitaire adventures. There’s lots of them. At the least 25 full-length solitaire modules have been revealed by Flying Buffalo again within the day, in addition to quite a few mini-solos showing primarily in Sorcerer’s Apprentice journal. They usually proceed to look at locations like drivethru. Most of those adventures are designed for one PC. A only a few help you run a complete social gathering.
One in every of these party-based solitaire adventures is “Outdated Dwarf Mine” by Roy Cram, initially revealed in Pegasus difficulty #7 (Judges Guild, 1982) but additionally obtainable on-line in revised type right here. The revised model says you’ll be able to take a celebration of as much as ten PCs stage 1-3, so I rolled up ten PCs yesterday, purchased gear this morning, and performed the journey this afternoon.
This is my social gathering:
- The Different Fili, dwarf warrior (So-called as a result of I used my quickie dwarf title generator and bought a canonical Tolkien title.)
- Stumpy McNabb, leprechaun wizard (Named utilizing a “what’s your leprechaun title” graphic from final St. Patrick’s Day.)
- Framhere, nondescript human warrior
- Elenmír Starjewel, elf wizard
- Doniram Sithmore, human wizard
- Fleetfoot Jones, human warrior with glorious Dexterity and Velocity stats
- Foscho Brockburrow, hobbit rogue with a four Str
- Brunaine Shadowsure, human rogue with astonishingly good stats
- Yuri Silvertongue, a.ok.a. Yuri the Pathetic, human warrior, his Charisma was good however his Energy, Intelligence, and Constiution have been all abysmal
- Vidfara the Wanderer, a mediocre human rogue
I did fairly properly at first. Different Fili and Frmahere defeated a half dozen goblins that attacked the social gathering in a slim confine. A large spider poisoned Fili however he survived to help the remaining filter the spider nest. Issues began to go downhill when a hobgoblin ambush riddled Fili’s physique with crossbow bolts, leaving him lifeless. Some gems and a pair magic gadgets have been recovered in addition to just a little gold. However then we fought a wizard. The social gathering defeated the wizard’s chief goon, however Elenmír and Vidhara have been killed by the traditional wizard assault spell Take That, You Fiend. Then I made a hotheaded transfer that destroyed the wizard, the social gathering, and the complete rattling dungeon.
One in every of nowadays I will have an actual success in one in every of these rattling solos.
