I have run this adventure three times since it's premier at GHC 2018 and found it challenging without being overwhelming, as long as the party works together. It is heavy combat and exploration, with some role play in spots.

There are a couple small modifications that I did for flavor and challenge, like adding a couple wights at the end of the entrance hall to peg the first characters who cross the obstacle. I would also suggest having the zombies come out after the party passes their cubby to keep them from escaping back up the ramp. I also think Petal makes more sense as a centaur because centaurs are mentioned in the story, so I have run it that way. I get what was trying to be done, but anything else seemed out of place.

This was my favorite Border Kingdoms adventure from GHC 2018 out of the 4 that I ran, I highly recommend it.

Not just another bug hunt.

This adventure draws heavily from the movie Aliens in inspiration and tone. That is a good thing. I loved it. The players have a lot of chances for exploration and roleplay depending on how they approach each encounter. The writers give the DM enough leeway to have it play out as a creepy investigation fraught with weird and horrific discoveries or as a simple rescue mission that ends in a bang. Tons of fun and well written. The included digital maps are a nice touch. I highly recommend it.

I played this during the premier and it was tons of fun. The encounters were challenging and refreshing with lots of environmental elements. The NPCs were well fleshed out and the story was top notch.

The mod covers your standard nobleman's party infilitration scheme, but diverges once you get inside. The challenges are unique, fun and give each party member role a chance to shine. The mystery part can be easy to miss, but it's easy enough to guide the players with the gossip chart.

Oh yea, this thing is full of list, charts and little bits of info for the DM to dole out. lots of flavor and role play opportunities.

This mod is hands down the most fun I have ever had in four hours. Some of it was probably the wonderful DM running it for our group at GenCon. Shout out to Reese, where ever you are!

Although not as tightly bound as the previous mod in this series, Ghostly Infestation takes the threads from Spectral Incursion and masterfully weaves them into a mystery for the PCs to solve.

The challenges in this, especially the end fight, can be deadly for a party that is not prepared, you have been warned.

Overall I found this to be the weakess of the trilogy, but it is still a solid mod on it's own.

This is a good intro mod for players, it gets them into the action quickly and gives them good guidence on what to do next. There are ample role play opportunities and a very satisfying, dynamic climax.

I would highly recommned it along with the companion mods in this trilogy.
