How much XP for Fingers of the Forsaken Hand?

<r>My group has basically completed everything in Fingers of the Forsaken Hand. Could anyone give me ball park figure for how much XP they would get by the end of the module? (I normally run 3.5 conversions which has a simpler system for awarding XP than adding up every bit of monster and treasure X...

Mass Combat Rules

<r>Does anyone have any mass combat rules? I need them for a game next week. I'm looking for something pretty simple and straightforward and that would work as an extension of the current combat system (as opposed to the combat rules found in the D&D Rules Cyclopaedia, for example.)<br/> _______...
