The Voyages of Sinbad (ESCP)

Sinbad escapes from "The Cave Of The Dead," only to become a prisoner of "The Old Man Of The Sea."

This is a pretty good adaptation of two stories from the Sinbad the Sailor cycle in One Thousand and One Nights.

  1. Quite good overall - Not the least for having Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherezade music in the background. Decent game fodder here for my campaign, too. The incidents described in this episode are a much better reflection of the Arabian Nights corpus than what most people think.
