A few enquiries lead the PCs to the hiding place of the Aztechnology team, and it ends in a big firefight which, hopefully, ends with the PCs as the winners. Thoughts: A problem area in the adventure is the transition between part 1 (hiding Maria for five days) and part 2 (dealing with Aztechnology), since part 2 seems to assume that part 1 ends differently than it does (to be precise, part 1 seems to assume Maria is in the PCs' custody, while part 2 seems to be written on the assumption that Aztechnology captured her). This requires some creativity on the gamemaster's part. Similar Products: Dark Angel, Queen Euphoria Survey Rating: 6.9 (20 votes)
