    RPG Vault have posted a review of the Hordes of the Underdark expansion, including lots of graphical material from the game. Here's a snip:

    As with all modules created by BioWare, the tools they used are also available to the player via the toolset that comes with the original game. It should be noted that there are numerous improvements including new scripting commands such as improved merchant controls, dynamic item and tile changing. As for the new elements in Hordes, we have the previously mentioned skies, heads, portraits, voice sets, numerous placeables, and five tilesets - Underdark, Drow Interior, Mind Flayer Tunnels, Beholder Tunnels and Frozen Wastes. Another very thoughtful addition to the toolset is a built in conflict checker for hak paks. These comprise the method by which community members can put their custom content into the game, and if there are conflicts with the developer's resources, this tool will let the builders know. One area that didn't receive a lot of attention this time around is the Dungeon Master client, the special interface that allows change the world and guiding players through adventures.
