...were scary... and so this makes perfect sense to me.  An adventure set in the Deadlands version of Disney World... cool.  I've only read through this so far, so anyone's thoughts on how to improve this adventure, or any weakness it has that I cannot see by reading it would  be appreciated.  (usually you can only get to know an adventure by actually running it)    It looks okay, and I'm perfectly comfortable with premise, an island amusement park filled with killer robotic clowns.  The novel part was great, I really liked the character of Roth.  I think the story will really help me with setting the scenes.  The story description of the Big Bad Wolf was great.
 
The map is good, except for the markings of A and B. However, I'm thinking of inking in the internals of the Enchanted Woods, to help create the feeling of being lost while inside the Woods. 
 
The Puppet is a fairly deadly challenge, what with the instant kill potential.  But I do like the way it is, with the hanging corpse and the twisting, grasping tentacle-like wires.  The Big Bad Wolf is very tough, I could see a few players going down to it.  Also, I don't know if I want the players to realise that Wolf and the Clowns are automatons.  I guess its okay, but I do like how the Clowns dissolve into a pretty puddle of goo.  Dempsey, itself, is also a tough hombre.  Its going to take a lot of firepower, brains, and luck to take this hombre down.
 
I'm guessing this adventure is for a group of experienced survivors.  What is it like when its run?  Also, this is the third dime novel, what is the second one?  And how many dime novels are there for HOE?
 
Thanks in Advance,
