    My cavalier solo game is almost at the end, and while it has been great deal of fun I'm now going back to playing with party. It has been kind of... lonely journey :) On this spot I would like to give thanks to all the people who offered helpful advices on this. You have been very helpful.

    This time, I would like some info on a mod mentioned in the title. I know it's supposed to be somewhat buggy, but I would like some first hand experience from people who have played it. I heard there are some special rules to it, and I would like to know about, without too much spoilers that is. So, in short, anything you can tell me about it, I would greatly appreciate.

    I read topic about it on the old forum, but it didn't told me much. This time I would ask everybody to keep their "Imoen and PC are siblings you sicko" and similar for themself. Also, gene diversity of deities and similar biological stuff is not wanted this time. I'm only looking for opinions on certain mod.

    I intend to play this mod only, and perhaps certain components of Ease of use. The readme says this should work fine. I also see ToB version is to come out, before the end of this year, so I'll probably wait for that and than play them together. One question that remains is, what party should I choose for maximum interactions and fun factor? Again, all advices are very much welcomed.

    I'll start off by pointing out that the last time I tried this mod was quite a bit ago and I think that I finished SoA a bit too fast to experience all the content.

    In terms of triggering the romance: don't rush to Spellhold as fast as you can. Make sure that you get a fair few nights of rest first. Secondly, be nice. Imoen is a kind soul and ain't going to appreciate you treating her badly very much. Finally, it is easy to make a mistake in the 'Important Talk', so saving as you leave the Underdark is highly recommended.

    The only bug that I remember experiencing was that it broke the Aerie romance. However, this shouldn't be all that much of a problem as if you are installing the mod, then you are likely intending to romance Imoen. A word of caution: some of the text can be rather descriptive, so if you are [very] easily offended then it is something you should be aware of.

    As it was so long ago, I can't give any real advice on party choice, although non-mod NPCs would likely work better. I seem to recall Aerie having a friendship with Imoen, although the bug with her Romance cropped up here and interfered with her dialogue. I would imagine that if Charname was uninterested in her then the bug wouldn't appear, although I can't be certain.

    I do remember enjoying the mod and I am intending on going through the entire thing when the ToB part comes out. I guess that alone would tell you that I am in favour of it.

    Hope my ramblings were of some help to you. ;)
