The last couple of days have been scorching up here in Canada too. I spent most of yesterday wishing I had spent an extra couple hundred dollars for a few more thousand BTU's worth of air conditioning.

Hey do American's measure heating/air conditioning in BTUs?

Absolutely! What else would we measure it in? Calories? :lol:

I doubt most folks here know that BTU stands for "British Thermal Unit," though. They just know that more BTU = better.

I just measure it in how many $50+ garden plants and shrubs I've had die from heat this year....looking at about 3.5 right now (one may pull through) and probably more to come here in Texas as the 100 degree days keep rolling...

I know what you mean. A lot of my plants are suffering too but my palm tree and aloe vera plant are just loving it.

sorry, but i believe you're not completely right... rob kuntz could have written that module even for its company but not only...

...maybe the formaly known "troll lord games" is now the "pied-piper-publishing", but there is another version of dark druids different than those shown in the link you gave me... :wink:

The module in question was first written some 30 years ago, but first published by Troll Lord Games in -- what? 2002? -- for the D20 system.

Rob later developed (with the help of yours truly

) a version of the module with generic stats (compatible with old-school RPGs). This version was released by Rob's company, Pied Piper Publishing, as a PDF product in May of this year. There is also a D20 PDF version available through Pied Piper.

If you want the print version, then you'll have to buy it through TLG. If, on the other hand, you want a version of the module compatible with the most ADVANCED role-playing games, then you should buy it through Pied Piper Publishing.

Hope this helps.

Yes, there are three different versions of Dark Druid:

1) The botch job done by Troll Lord Games;
2) The redone version (second edition) - compatible with most gaming systems;

and

3) The d20 version (expanded) - not TLG.

The second and third versions are available only as a pdf and can be purchased thru the PPP website.
