So. Rappan Athuk. Thoughts? [PF/3.5]

I'm going to be starting Rappan Athuk with my regular group shortly, and have been busily reading over the material. I wanted to know if anyone else here has any experience with it, and wants to offer me any pointers?

I'm GMing, we're doing Pathfinder, and I'll be upconverting the monsters as needed. I'm starting them (4) at level 6, and advised them to avoid Divine Casters, which they've done a pretty good job at doing.

Big and broken. A lot of the module is confusing and much of the dungeon write up doesn't match the map. But my group had a blast once we got around that.

It's big. Like ToEE big. Read and re-read. Then read it again. It's meant to be hard. Don't pull punches.

390 Pages. Yeah, I've gathered it's pretty big. One thing I'm noticing, though, is that the players can pretty easily skip huge swathes of the dungeon.

Don't pull punches.

I won't. I've already told them that I'm betting they're going to have a TPK before they even get into the dungeon. (Gargoyles.)
