Jan 28, 2009 19:41:33 I click on the link to the Dungeon Delve book due out next month:

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/dndacc/9780786951390

And there is no description whatsoever on the book. Usally they put a little info on what kind of book it is.

Jan 28, 2009 19:51:30 As I understand it, Dungeon Delve is a collection of mini adventures (a short series of encounters). Each delve will have a few encounters that should take 3-4 hours to complete. There will be multiple delves per level and delves for every level 1-30. Dungeon #160 had a preview called Summers End, it was a delve for an 18th level party.

Jan 28, 2009 22:52:34 Yeah, I think it's about 120 encounters, or 4 for each level, each level on a map about the area as most of a tile set.

Sounds good to me!

Did you ask for a description?!?!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0786951397/ref=s9_newr_c2_t2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-6&pf_rd_r=0YEKKCG0AQFA7NRTTANQ&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=463383451&pf_rd_i=507846

There's a brief description of this item on Amazon.

It looks pretty good to me, too. I might just pick up one myself. ( a few new and classic monsters would be more incentive for me).

Jan 29, 2009 13:11:18 David Christ told me he did some work on the book and was pimping it hard to us when we were playing LFR. He said a lot of the encounters are pretty interesting and include interesting terrain elements. The example he gave was a battle with a giant where the floor was crumbling away into a river of lava.

Jan 29, 2009 20:00:15 I know I could find the description of the book other places online. My point was that WOTC left out the info on the product on its own page.
