New area

I would like to say I was very pleased with the group and area explored last night.  

I was not around for the conclusion and death of the party. It seems that Aerimor was the heart of the party and they could not go on without him.  =P

As such I can not comment on the hall in question or any events in the final battle.  With that said, up to there was seemingly well balanced for a party averaging in the low twenties or better.  The 'first' area was most definatly inspired by lord of the rings, but in hind sight I think that made it 'cooler' rather than taking away from it.  In fact the whole thing was very lord of the ringish.  The 'climbing' area was fine.  And the third area was very graphically pleasing.  I hate that I needed to go to top down view, but I beleive it was worth it for the beautifully fitting graphics of the area.  In other words it was a worth while trade off.  

All in all, thank you for the work and the new area.  Sounds like you have tweaks to perform in that last area, but now your aware of them.  If you desire to go again when retweaked, I would love to try my hand again. And see if I can see a little more of the place. And if it is done earlier in the day, maybe I will not have to desert you and leave you to folly in my absence. =P

P.S.: Grumpy ole Abiorn. ;)

Yeah, rust monster aside, the place was very visually compelling with lots of footholds and mountains to climb and the challenge of the gobbos was a pretty good pace.  Chongo did a great job with it.

Hey, Aerimor as the heart of the party?  I seem to recall leaving at about the same time... ;)

Seriously though, I have to concur.  Beautiful and deadly.  A tiger of areas, with an epic feel to it.  Good work!
