FA1 - Fens of Malack

There's nothing inherently problematic with this area for adventuring so far as the descriptions, story hooks, etc., are concerned, as it's a useful small region GM's can easily slot in to an on-going campaign without too much extra effort. Plus there are the usual Filbarrian flavour photos and images to help set the scene.

However, two of the four maps have features which are confusingly not referred to. One, showing the Bandit Caves, has three areas of what must (from the fourth map's description) be water, possibly moderately deep. Two stretches of this completely block both passages leading to key cave 6, whose description suggests it is lower than the other caves, yet for some reason it is not flooded. Given the water here seems to be wholly irrelevant, these water areas should best be ignored.

The other problematic map is that showing the Giants' Encampment, described as an area depressed into the surrounding rock, rather like a small dungeon area with the ceiling removed. This text description is fine, but on the map, one of the two routes in is labelled "Down", the other "Up", yet BOTH must logically lead DOWN into the depressed area or UP from it! Two giants are here, but eight "X"'s are shown on the map with no explanation as to their meaning, nor any hint as to where the giants are meant to be camped. Again, nothing insurmountable for most GMs, but overall suggesting too much haste in preparing this product, and too little subsequent checking.
