When Matt Colville started his video series with explaining the Delian Tomb I knew I had to run it.
But at that stage I didn't have a group I could run it for.
Fast forward to September 2018 and that opportunity arose as part of starting a new campaign with a new (to me) group of players.
I decide to check if anyone had expanded on the storyline and that's where I stumbled upon Seth's version.
I've since run this version more than 12 times as taster sessions for people completely new to D&D and as "session 0.5" type events to get the party warmed up to what is yet to come in a campaign.
Whilst much of that is down to the simplicity of what Matt's adventure is, what Seth has done is given the adventure a better starting point and a more rounded feel overall.
It has now become my go-to adventure when running short taster games for groups and also the main scenario I recommend to new DMs to try out, especially when using a VTT of some kind.
The campaign that I used this for is still running the characters have recently stumbled across another tomb of the Delian Order.
Thanks Seth!
