Heh.. I'm afraid I made a mistake on that one, and had the Johnson
overstress the idea of "subtlety" to the players a bit much. Emphasizing
that there wasn't to be a whole lot of collateral damage.

Unfortunately, my players took it to heart and overcomplicated things. They
didn't even want to NARCOJECT the Barghests, for fear they'd leave darts
behind. >8->

(Finally they had a Field spirit hit Confusion on the dogs and their keeper.
The spirit also carried tainted meat out to knock out the beasts. They all
got a big kick out of those pork chops being pushed along by blades of
grass..) >8->

It was at THAT stage of planning that people finally said, "Wait a minute,
how do we get past the doors?"


Blessings,
