Aug 31, 2008 23:37:17 The conversion for H1 for both FR and Eberron was released at the same time, yet for H2 only FR was done. What gives?

No idea, but seeing as how I plan on running it in Eberron I should be more upset. However, I've already decided on where I'm going to set it and what changes need to be made. At this point I hope they come out with a conversion to see how close I was.

Sep 01, 2008 2:22:24 I asked for this at the Eberron seminar at GenCon and I was told a conversion was made and should be coming online. No time frame was given however so hold your horse and hope for a quick release. It was also said that H3 would be adapted for Eberron.

Sep 01, 2008 9:29:47 It is probably coming. Remember, as much as we all like Eberron here, the Forgettable Realms campaign guide just came out, so much of the focus this year will be on FR, just as I bet much of the focus for articles in 2009 will be for Eberron.

Sep 01, 2008 10:32:55 On the topic of conversions, I'd really like to see some conversion notes for the Scales of War adventure path. At a glance, I would say that the first adventure could be relocated to eastern Breland (near the Darguun border), whereas the second could be set in the Mror Holds. Without seeing the big picture though, it's difficult to decide.

Oddly enough I'm the first scales of war adventure directly into thunderspire labyrinth.

As for the scales of war adventure, I set it in New Cyre. Though given more time I would've further changed the theme of the catacombs to fit an ancient Dhakaani mountain side fortresses. Further, I've replaced the Red Hand with the Gan'duur hobgoblin clan from Darguun. They wish to bring honor back to the Darguuls by way of reclaiming the lands once held by the Emperors of Dhakaan.

Albeit a foolish concept with the severe lack of backing and forces. What's to say the even a small scale annex might not be possible.

Sep 02, 2008 14:29:58 I doubt we'll see it. I think with the Campaign Guide out, they're assuming most games are going to be there. I started to think up a conversion, but I wanted to finish writing it all up before posting.

I would make the Pyramid of Shadows a prison built by Aernal elves, used for their most dangerous criminals, especially those who became Ascended Councilors, and therefore are extremely powerful. The Pyramid is bound to Mabar like a man-made manifest zone, even though it's physical location is on Aernal. Although, and especially with Karavakos using a ritual to make it happen more often, the Pyramid will occasionally find itself in Mabar manifest zones. Most of the encounters remain the same (creatures bound either by the elves like the dragon, or those who wandered into the Pyramid and were unable to escape like the Ettin), although instead of a Tiefling and Eladrin, Karavakos and Vyrellis are instead both Deathless reduced in power from the loss of Irnia's manifest zone.

Great conversion ideas Mystrich.

BTW: Does Aerenal law grants jailed Deathless the Right of Counsel? (joke, sorry couldn't help myself).
