people were upset with the ending of Tyrant's Grasp??? the ending of Tyrant's Grasp is sick and those people are babies

If you’ve heard anything about Book 6:Midwives to Death, it’s probably that a lot of people are very upset about the ending. So let me start by saying that I was one of them until I had a chance to think it through. Now I see this as a quest of heroic proportions with echoes of The Lord of the Rings or the story of the heroic Greek resistance at Thermopylae. Or the Star Wars movie Rogue One. Now I really do wish I had a chance to play or GM this.

oh you can actually put this tip into every AP printed before 2024 🙂

Remove any fight that doesn't seem related to the plot. That's going to be almost 50% of the fights, though, so make sure you use Milestone leveling, not XP.

Things I'm more interested in after reading this: Crimson Throne, Agents of Edgewatch, Hell's Rebels, Seven Dooms Things I'm less interested in: Council of Thieves (i guess it's good setup and 0 payoff) A common theme here is "this AP could be a 9 with some changes but as written it's a 4" 🫢
