Well, yes. To be fair to the folks at Issaries, my understanding was
that the basic box would contain a basic introductory sequence. It'll
have 4 simple scenarios, all tied together; and it'll have writeups
for 4 different groups that the players can play members from (Ibex
moon, thunder rebels, something called servants of cleansing, and one
other which I forget). This is all somewhat word-of-mouth, by the
way; I got this second hand from Steve Martin, I believe the name was.
My concern is that there needs to be another, larger scenario just
after that, to feed whatever hunger develops out of those first 4
scenarios.

I had this sort of very basic scenario for the con - it was one of the
4 scenarios mentioned above. Again, I'm more concerned about the next
step for newbies who buy the product out in the field.
