Has this module been released? I'm not seeing it on the download site, so that kind of answers the question, I suppose. So a better one might be: when will it be released?

Thanks.

No the module has not. Despite having a good author the module was panned by just about everyone at Arcaniscon from 2 years ago, mostly because (IMO) the PCs have little to no agency during the four hours of play. I don't want to delve into details but broadly the premise is that 3 assassinations take place during the mod while traveling on a major road. The PCs investigate but can't stop any of them. But for a cut scene, they can't find out who the assassin is either.

I'm not sure what the plans are for this mod, if any. Given that it's been 2 years I suspect it's not going to be released.

I've played it, vaguely remembered it, definitely remember it now. I was more curious for my group's Pre-Origins planning and trying to get everyone caught up, knowing that not everyone went to ArcanisCon. Thanks for the memory jog, though. Cheers!

I'd like to see it released even if it is not a popular module.

Alternatively, maybe start issuing reduced certs for modules that were supposed to be released but will not be (for whatever reason)? Maybe something like half or 3/4 xp and silver of the original cert?
