As the player characters move to investigate, they encounter armies of the living dead and other vile creatures besieging the last pockets of human resistance. The only relief is to find and destroy the dreadful Deathstone, which is responsible for the black cloud, thereby facing the united forces of an evil sorcerer, a powerful priest, and a mighty dragon. Publication historyCM2 Death's Ride was written by Garry Spiegle, with art by Jeff Easley, and was published by TSR in 1984 as a 32-page booklet with an outer folder.[1] ReceptionLawrence Schick, in his 1991 book Heroic Worlds, calls the module's cover "Striking".[1] The French RPG magazine La Gazette du Donjon gave this adventure a rating of 3 out of 5, saying, "This 'save the world' scenario is primarily intended for PCs who want to travel. Often referred to as an introductory module, it allows you to put in practice all the new rules discussed in the CM box. If your characters fail in their mission, the consequences for the region, even the world, could be dramatic."[2] See alsoReferencesExternal links
