It has been a long while since I posted anything here on the Outer Dark. I have lots of good reasons for this, including another project that has pulled my attention away, and of course there is my gig as a stay-at-home dad that is never ending. As a peace offering to my long neglected readers, I am posting a revised version of my one-page adventure, Raid on Black Goat Wood. The biggest revision is the map, which I feel is a BIG improvement over the original. I have also adjusted the layout of the document, which I hope will help organize things a bit better and make it easier to navigate the text. I made only a few small tweaks to the text of the adventure, so it remains very close to the original. I would like to thank all of those who downloaded the original and ran it for their groups. This means a lot to me, so thank you all! I hope this new revised version of Raid will be as warmly received as the original release was. Enjoy!
Edit: Found a typo on the PDF. I uploaded the new PDF to Google Docs. If anyone sees any other misspellings please let me know ASAP. Thanks!
Edit #2: Thanks to Aidan for pointing out some pretty glaring typos that I and at least five other people overlooked when the adventure was first written. These have been corrected and the newest PDF has been posted and linked.

I placed this in my campaign a few months ago and the party had a good time with it, except they really resisted the idea that there was no way to kill the big bad. now that you mention it, I should review my notes on how they finally sealed it off ... maybe it's time for a blast from their past.
The revised format looks great, altohugh I liked the original too.
Thanks, Mike! I would love to see a review of your group's experience with Raid. Let me know when you post it and I will share the link here.
Then new map is very cool. It's always great to see a classic updated.
Thanks, Sean!
Thanks for the update!
Misspellings noticed, as requested (plus two grammar nitpicks):
"bowels of the Abyss"
"gaping sinkhole"
"source of all monsters"
"coarse black hair"
"adventurers meet with a scene" or "adventurers are met by a scene"
Good update of a great adventure. Thanks.
Aidan.
Thanks, Aidan! Where were you when I wrote this damn thing? :-) You caught things five other editors missed.
Diggin it!
Love the new map. I'm gonna have to run this baby again, perhaps with the Victorian characters. :D
Love this adventure Shane!
Thanks, Dave! If you do happen to run it again, please share. I really enjoyed following your last write-up.
Conveniently, my players accidentally allowed Shub Niggurath to escape Her prison beneath the forest recently.
This is perfect!
Thanks, James! If you happen to post a play report let me know and I will share a link to it here.
