I'm the youngest one in our group at 27. Long time players. I was 
disappointed because the adventure didn't get its full run of fun. I built 
it up to them as looming closer and had the little tie ins from the 
beginning for a while. I'm running my own tales for now till they start the 
devil's trilogy. I think spooky tales are needed now with some pull into 
their background. Anybody have any tips for the devil's trilogy besides the 
problem with Jackie?
