Reception

BY Rowe reviewed The Halls of the Dwarven Kings for White Dwarf #66, giving it an overall rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "Halls of the Dwarven Kings is perfect as an illustration of how to set up an adventure; the DM need only read the background and then the characters can begin. This is the first of a new series and promises to be a worthwhile addition to any DM's armoury of adventures."[2]

Reviews
gollark: When there are other servers running, which is the case here, I don't really know what you can do since I don't think you can preempt them.
gollark: So you can then determine where they are and just offset all your returned positions by a constant factor to set their position fix to where you want it to be.
gollark: As the sole GPS server, it is trivial to use exactly the same maths to determine where a client is when they ping (since CC GPS, unlike in reality, works by having clients ping the server when they want a fix).
gollark: Plus all kinds of weird error sources.
gollark: You get time *differences* in real life since the clocks aren't synced.
