I am going to be running this at a newly opened local game shop in my town. What I'd like to know is how long the adventure is so that I can see how many games I can schedule. I know the first one was just on encounter and was over pretty fast. Will this be the same?
Thanks,
Shadowspawn
I think it will be just like "A Day Late, A Shilling Short" - so it will have two encounters (one fight and one social). But still I can't wait to see it - especialy I'm interested becouse it's about Dwarfs. And a big bonus for me is a sneak preview of what's in the plans for the future. Can't wait for July and for the FFG publication of this adventure on the site in the WFRP section
..but attendees will also get the chance to play through a full adventure that serves as a prelude for an upcoming Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay product, as well as walk away with an advance copy of a new career!
The info calls it a full adventure, so I think it might be a little bit more involved than "A Day Late..".
I guess it still needs to be something that fits nicely into a few hours play though, no more.

'A Day Late' is full size for demo lvl play. but it would obviously be great if it was a tad longer.
The fact is, the adventure needs to be designed to complete in about 2 hours of play. That's pretty standard for a demo adventure. Unfortunately, it does limit what can be done within it due to the time frame. I will agree, it will likely have one combat and one social encounter with maybe a little bit of investigation or something. It really can't have much more than that and still be a 2-hour demo adventure.
Basically, think of it as a single Act opening/introduction to the larger Adventure/campaign they have planned to release.
I contacted FFG via email.. no response yet...

You could be right becouse FFG said something about that it would be a whole 1 act from a big adventure/campain. Can't wait for more information about this. Not the most excitement for me will bring this demo and the plans for future.
