[HOE] Unity Spoilers in Lost Colony

["David L. Hoff" <dlhoff1@charter.net>]

Greetings!

I had a very bad thing happen over GenCon weekend. I had purchased The 
Unity when it first came out, but have not had a chance to run it yet. 
One of my core players for my HOE campaign is getting married, and has 
been having to spend almost every weekend handling last minute details. 
The wedding is only a couple weeks from now though, and I had been 
planning on running The Unity starting in September. What has now 
happened is that one of my other players went to GenCon this last 
weekend, and decided he was going to buy Lost Colony so he could run a 
campaign of that and give me "a chance to play something instead of 
running all the time." You can probably guess what happened. He read 
Lost Colony, including the many spoilers in it for The Unity. He called 
me last night to admit to this, and to offer to bow out of the campaign 
since he now "knows too much". I really don't know what to do about 
this. He has been a core player in my HOE campaign ever since I started 
running it, and now, just as I was getting set to wrap up the campaign 
with the Best Adventure Ever, he has ruined it for himself by reading 
the Lost Colony book. AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

I don't know what to do other than to warn other Marshals out there that 
if you have not ran The Unity yet, warn all of your players to not even 
touch a copy of Lost Colony until you have done so.
