Hello!
I want to play Beyond the Rim in a couple of days. As I don't like the intro of the adventure I'd like to change it that the players themselves stumble upon the jury-rigged hyperspace message pod Harsol launched and they have to bring it to IsoTech. It could be coded so only Reom can decrypt the message, and the players have to bring the pod to him. Before they reach the Wheel the players can find out the rumours surrounding the Sa Nalaor.
Did someone do something like that to make the intro more mysterious and/or exciting and engage the players from the beginning? "I hire you for this and that... ", becomes boring after so many times.
Thanks!
