This is the session of Revenge of the Iron Lich that I ran for International Tabletop Day.
Our thanks to Kirwan's Game Store in Catskill NY for allowing ups to use their basement and for the loan of the camera equipment!

This game has a 4-hour time limit and no scheduled breaks. This is part 7 of 9. 

Meet my players! (from left to right)
Anthony: Human Swordmage/Artificer
Jen: Eladrin Wizards (battlemage)
Tom: Halfling Rogue (Essentials' Theif)
Todd: Dwarven Cleric (unknown)
Grace: Elven Ranger (unknown)

Last session: Golem Down!

This session: ONE HOUR LEFT. The experienced players take a stronger lead in guiding the path of the others in order to fight the dwindling time limit.

"Pull the lever!"

Anthonys fourth botch (natural 1).

"Not evil disintegration? I don't believe it!"

A secret room is found. "This is where having somone who has played before can be no fun at all."

A little innuendo going on in the Maw of Battle. the group discovers a puzzle there, but they need the key to the cypher, which is in another room.

Another puzzle is discovered. Anthony gives some "solid gold" advice. Fortunately, Todd questioned the riddle a little further and guessed correctly before any harm was done. Score one fo rthe Fourthcore newbies!

Foreshadowing: Only about 40 minutes left and the party is focused on sidequests. Time keeps on slippin', splippin' slippin'....
