Ancient Trails: So It Begins

Not much more than an adventure hook and a couple side encounters that have some flimsy railroading to them.

There's imediatly a test on how well and how detailed players secure cargo. Then an encounter with tons of fluff on why it's not viable to solve nonviolently or bother with following up on. Then the cargo is broken anyways with no explination. I feel this gets me into an awkward spot as a dm where there's no place for me to take this adventure if pcs would look into things like this. There is, but it's in no way looked into here.

Then if you get past there there's another thing that the pcs would probably only find through investigation that would've shaken an earlier part of the mission, and this thing isnt even tangently relateted to the mission so far.

Also another unrelated location in there between a couple things with no explination.

It's good for a few ideas, but for an adventure start it has potential to back the type of dm who would use a boxxed adventure like is presented here into a corner of improv when players dont follow blindly along.

It sucks. The pages will not display in any usable format. Cute bells and whistles give you a choice: zoom in so you can read the text but no how, no way can you display the whole page, for that, you have to zoom out so far that the text is unreadable. THE PRICE IS RIGHT: YOUR MATERIALS ARE WORTHLESS.

It's a PDF. It works fine as a PDF. I have it on my computer and have no problems whatsoever. You may want to check your machine or perhaps invest some time to learn the intricacies of PDFs.

A bit on the generic side for my tastes, but nothing is actually wrong with the adventure itself. You cant beat the price. I would suggest this to anyone trying to get a campaign started and no ideas on how to get it off the ground. The price certainly helps.

Some of the characters and organisations in this scenario are interesting, but it all feels amazingly generic, presenting a series of jobs out of the big list of SF plots that end up with the PCs handed some alien gewgaw that appears to be the hook for later adventures. There's little actively wrong with it, apart from some slips of editing.
