Put into newer Adventure Template.

Provided an Introduction for the first page of the module that didn’t involve the Introduction in the actual module.

Replaced caravan with vardo.

Changed:
save vs. Dragon’s Breath
To:
save + DEX bonus or penalty vs. Dragon’s Breath

Changed:
save vs. Poison
To:
save vs. Death Ray

Changed
ft
To


Americanized the spelling of some words including: favourite to favorite; goal(er) to jail(er); centre to center; coloured to colored

Moved Teaman’s image to where it is described in the module.
(Still think this is a great image, Teaman.) (Chii, there is also a color version of the image in the thread, possible cover?)

We may also want to note that Fire Mountain was the first module that John Dutton submitted and that Mystery of Drakestein Island is the second. Wulfric's Tomb which was included in AA2 is actually the third module of the series.
Thanks for the kind words, Alman. Did that one a couple years ago, hope I've grown a little as an artist since then.

Made some more edits to this one:
Added non-breaking spaces in stat blocks where needed.

Change an instances of ‘they’ and ‘them’ to ‘the guards’; or ‘the leader’; or ‘the characters’.

Page 1 – Introduction
Added paragraph in Introduction that explains that Fire Mountain is the first module and The Mystery of Drakestein Island is the second. It also mentions that the third adventure, Wulfric’s Tomb is in AA2 and to visit the BFRPG website to get a copy of that too.

There is nothing of value for your family that would be worth your lives!
To:

Page 4, 5, 6, 9 – Lizard Man – Stat Block – Changed movement rate since AC indicates the Lizard Men are in Armor to match Core Rules “20’ Unarmored 30’ Swim 40’ (not in armor)”and added ‘XP 75’ to the stat block. Added ‘each’ if there was more than one Lizard Man.
Changed:

Page 7 – Sycorax – Stat Block – changes to match red dragon info from Core Rules. Going by HD Sycorax is a 6th age category dragon, this increases the claw, bite and tail damage, the rules also mention that age 6 dragons have two styles of breath and an improved damage, the XP are calculated from a 12 HD monster with two special attributes also added the attack bonus to the HD field. Left the Morale since the module mentions that Sycorax will fight to death if challenged.

Page 10 – Typical Caves – Paragraph one

To:
The home caves contain 1d4 common lizard men…

There are some things with the maps mostly that need to be done:
Page 13 – Map for Hidden Staircase.
Stairs from location 12 to 13 should indicate that they go up as they go left toward location 13. There should be another column to the right of the map and/or an indication that 18 and 19 are behind the doors on the right of room 17. The path leading south should be updated 18 to 20.

Page 14 – Map for Entrance Chamber room numbers need to be updated 18 to 20, 22 to 24, 20 to 23, 19 to 22,

Page 15 – Map for Cavern of Sycorax room numbers need to be updated 14 to 18 and 15 to 19

Map of Fire Mountian – Locations 1 – 4 are to the north of the dark line. The dark line is location 5. In the mountain are rooms 6 to 23. Location 21 is the dark line on the south side and location 24 is to the south of that line.

I'll post r14 to the first post and to the Dropbox folder.

And he has a orcish/hobgoblinish warrior that could work for one of the other AA3 adventures, maybe UNBARONABLE CIRCUMSTANCES.

He's good, really good.

Agreed, will def. include that dragon image 8-)
Gonna go ahead and lock this thread, as I'm starting to put AA3 together, starting with this adventure. The AA3 thread will be updated and unlocked once I've finished the initial work.
