So, will the sequel be in BGT, SOA or TOB? Where do you see the entry point of the sequel?
Well, the ideal point would be before you actually leave Restenford. I don't doubt Sir BB is up to the task, but the original adventure set in Garrotten was designed for characters of roughly 3rd to 5th level, so scaling up for even a SoA level challenge would require quite a redesign.
If it were my project, I'd probably have the baron throw a feast in the PC's honor after the existing subplots are resolved. That night, while the party sleeps, something happens, and one consequence of that event involves Pelltar asking the PC's to visit Garrotten to check some things out.
Yeah, I'm being vague, but I neither know what Sir BB has planned nor want to spoil anything, so I'm sure you'll understand.

This mod is more of a mystery/problem solving mod than it is a fighting mod. Your quest requires stealth, thoughtful responses and some trickery on your part. You can't let the people of Garrotten know why you are there but you need to pull information out of some of the people.
As a "real" mod, L2 is actually very short. I plan to supplement the story with some outdoor areas for you to explore. Garrotten has a tribe of orcs that raid it once in awhile, so you may get some support from the mayor if you help with the orcs. Also, the fishermen claim that something has been attacking their boats. So you may need to investigate that as well.
I have several other ideas to help flesh out this mod. Your main quest should be done before the rest of the side quests. Outside of that, I haven't gotten far enough into this to figure out what all I will include.
Lastly, the plan right now is to have you return to Restenford right after you exit the Candlekeep crypts or before you talk to the smuggler to get you back into BG. The other option is to make this a quest from Belt like the TofSC quests are. But that is a problem with the Tutu players also since they don't do these quests the same way.
Oh yeah, and you still have to have that last meeting with Shaggy about the staff.

one day - hopefully soon - i'll have a putie capable of running BP-BGT-NEJ. until then, i might have to go over to the dark side and install Tutu, just so i can play SoBH and sequel.
