Love the adventure.

One bit confuses me though...

Can area B-1 only be entered after the avalanche? I got that impression but I have read write-ups where PCs got to the icy chamber without attempting entry via location B and there are two italicised bits of text to read depending on which way the PCs approach from..

Thanks

See my post here
3rd page about 1/2 way down, should clear that up for you.

Sorry, I'm a bit thick. I read the excellent session reports but couldn't find the answer to my question?

It's my fault that it isn't terribly clear.

Find area 1-1 ... there's a passage up to 1-1a, but opposite that there is a passage that is cut by a "cartographic lightning bolt" indicating "there's a lot of distance here, but we're aren't going to map it." (There's got to be a real name for that, right?)

That's the passage that connects to the non-avalanche side of B-1.

Hope that clears it up, and doesn't make things worse.

Note, to confound matters even further, the door mentioned in the description is missing ...

On a technical drawing it is called a "Break Line" or sometimes "Cut Line".

Awesome. Thank you, Meinvt!

I think Harleys post should make it clear, but here is the bit from the thread I was speaking of where I talk about it.

I need a clarification on something in this module. If the party heads up the west side of the keep and does NOT cause the avalanche of cyclopean stones, do they still see or come across the entrance to the B-1 area? I am a little confused as to how it is situated on the map.

Or will they see a different entrance once they enter the courtyard from the western broken down wall?

This confused me initially too..but it didnt matter because my people triggered the avalanche. IF you do not trigger the avalanche you do not find that entrance to the tomb of the fallen at this point. There is another entrance After you clear the tower of the beast and head down the stairs you'll see the rear entrance at area 1-1
when the text says "enter from the North West" its referring to the entrance post avalanche. when the text reads " enter from the South East" its referring to the tunnel
at Area 1-1.... I was still confused about the Tomb having two entrances, so I played if the players found the one via the avalanche the second entrance didnt exist.
Hope that helps.
