It's a nice change of pace. Anyway, I just wanted to get some clarification on the quest's mechanism. Here's what it says:As soon as a Hero moves through any door, he must stop immediately and roll two red dice. He will then be teleported to the square with the same number as the dice total. If that square is already occupied, he will land on the Hero or monster in the square. The landed-on Hero or monster will lose 1 Body point, and, if still alive, must roll two red dice to see where he/it is teleported. If the same square number is rolled, roll again. The first teleported Hero remains on the square. Heroes may only pass through one door per turn!
Ok, so after rereading that I think I've answered my question, but I'll ask it anyway. Do you all roll the red dice to get to the doors in each room and then roll again to determine where you're teleported, or do you just roll once and that one roll (of two red dice) gets you to the room's door and determines where you are teleported? According to the rules, it sounds like each character has to roll twice, but that seems like a heck of a lot of rolling. I'd like to do it where only one roll is necessary, even though I don't have a really good reason, except that Dave tends to roll on the board and knock all the carefully placed furniture, doors, monsters and tiles out of place.
I really oughtta get a box top or something to roll in. hmm....what was my point? Oh yeah. What do you guys do? ... ... I suppose if someone is wearing the plate armor, they really need to roll again with two dice when they pass through a door to determine the teleportation... *sigh* I guess I answered my question.Well, this one is a better question.
The Ring of Return. The card says: I need clarification on the last line. Does it mean the ring is used only once per quest and you still get to keep the card, or once and only once and then you lose it? Again, now that I've reread it, it seems more likely that it's once per quest but you still get to keep the artifact. I think I got confused because I've been reading more about the expansion packs and the artifacts in those quests like the Spell Scrolls and Magical Daggers that are lost after use, so I thought it was the same with other artifacts from the main quest, but probably not. I'm probably making this more complicated than it is.When invoked, this magical ring will return all Heroes that the ring wearer can "see" to the starting point of the Quest. It can only be used once.
Really?! Only one time 
He got some unlucky rolls and his barbarian died. He still wasn't eager to search each room for treasure, well, until the end I guess, after one of the heroes made it back to the stairs with the Ollar's gold, and the other heroes were just teleporting around to rooms they'd already been to, trying to get themselves back. As for the dice rolling and the Ring of Return: rolling the dice twice (once for movement, once for teleportation) worked just fine. And the RoR didn't come into play, although Dave did understand that he could use it as a last resort if he ever got trapped in a room with a lot of monsters and just a few body points.
