Tomb of Horrors type Area

[Eviloth]

I know that the Tomb of Horrors didn't actually take place on this world. But has anyone tried running thru this at all? But I was just curiously looking thru the Vault and noticed this. Could this be implemented or any aspect of it?

I haven't had a chance to play it, but I have wanted to.

What are some aspects you like that you want to see?
Puzzles. Or did it have other stuff.

[Eviloth]

Well I would love to see the puzzles and traps. Obviously the nonstandard ones we are probably not used to seeing.

Sphere's of Annihilation be flung around

JmBro seems to enjoy making that kind of stuff.
Forward this off to him.
Maybe he will have some time to look at it.

[jmbrosendo]

No need, already had a look at it.


Looks very cool and has given me some ideas.

[Eviloth]

Alls I can say is SWEEETNESS!

[FallzQuick]

wouldn't some problems require a certain amount of intelligence to pass? A complicated pattern a stupid orc could not pass that a wizard could? And if an orc player(human) figures it out and lets their stupid orc go threw would it be considered metagaming?

Just a thought. Not really playing your character sheet if your 6 int orc walks threw the maze, via solving the problem, not lifting the 500lb bulder and making his own route...

[Eviloth]

Well hopefully you shouldn't be able to solo that.

Come on guys, don't tell me no one here has ever played through or DM'd this module in PnP (S1 - Tomb of Horrors), back when it came out?
I can still remember the foldout maps, the horrified looks on everyone's face when a silent countdown released the latest surprise trap, the...oh wait, that would be a spoiler, wouldn't it, I'll just stop now...***cough*lich***cough***

I had 10 people roll up 5 pc's each and I killed on average of 4/5 of each of their guys.

I've played the tomb of horrors.

I will kill the next person who tries to run it for me.

Yeah to say the least I have killed more cumulative hit dice of pc's than any other modules I have ran. Plus if you actually run the RETURN to the Tomb of Horrors with the pre/post adventures in 2nd of the city it just adds to the massacre.
