Could somebody please point me to a forum or a thread, where this meatgrinder module is discussed?

I intend to run it in 3.5, for Lv. 16+, but have some questions regarding the story and "logic" behind Vecna's plans.

Oh, that's German for "The Vecna, The!" No one who speaks German could be an evil god...

Here's a thread on Dragonsfoot. You'll probably find better discussion of any pre-3.x modules over there. http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5447&view=previous&sid=300f8485d2ea32bead246a0a70873de4

Normally, you'd be right, DF is nice for Out of Print talk.

However, since that's a Greyhawk tied module...

The little boys that run the GH forum on dragonsfoot randomly lock any topics which don't fit their narrow fanboy definition of old school greyhawk.

The GH forum here:
http://boards1.wizards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=353
and the ones at Canonfire.com:
http://www.canonfire.com/cfhtml/modules.php?name=Forums
are much better options.

Funny. At first, I thought, "How did he percieve I'm German? Is my English that bad?" - yes, I live near Cologne in Germany.

But then realized, that you reffered to "Die". Vecna is (was in life) male, so the correct article would be "Der". Or you mean "Die Vecnas", which means "The Vecnas", multiple gods of Death. Nice idea for the showdown, having the PCs fight through a bunch of clones of the lich-god...

Oh, I don't claim to be that clever. I was just ripping off a Simpsons joke. ;)
