    Gamespy has posted an interesting preview of the first Neverwinter Nights expansion pack: Shadows of Undrentide. Here's a clip of what they had to say:

    "Bioware has chosen to present a shorter storyline than the campaign that's in the original game. Even so, that doesn't mean they've skimped on detail. Instead of presenting a combat-heavy plot, Shadows of Undrentide's campaign will present gamers with several different ways to achieve their goal. For instance, there's a section of one of the levels where your PC has to cross a narrow bridge guarded by many enemy archers on the other side. They've clearly got a tactical advantage, and if you want, you can hack and slash your way across. However, if you open the gate of a nearby pen of oxen, they'll start a stampede towards the archers. The act will net you some juicy XP, so you won't be stiffed on advancement just because you chose to evade fighting the enemy directly. That sort of quest design isn't an isolated event. I saw several such missions where players will be able to choose their own methods of dealing with obstacles."

    You can read the whole preview here, and check out the screenshots here.
