This is basically what I ran, with the posse travelling back in time to try
to stop Stone. It took a bit (Ok, a LOT) of tweaking and fixing to get the
trillogy to work with this plan, but it was definately worth it, and I've
taught the player a few painfull lessons in the process :)

The key is, I had the posse tricked into thinking that the Heart of
Darkness was the only thing that could harm Stone, so they went after it
with passion. You should have seen the look on their faces when they tried
to destroy him with it and ... well, you'll just have to wait till the
player finishes his journal "Full Circle" to see what happened then. I'm
posting it up on my site as he does it.

IMHO, this is definately the wy the trilogy should be used, if you don't
mind messing with the adventures a fair bit (the first one could be used
basically as is - the Tremendae gang is fantastic, the second required a
bit of work and I've had to totally re-write the third installment).
