Well the problem with premade adventures is they are inherently linear.  
There is no way around it.  The Trick is to make it so no matter what the 
posse does, They end up hitting the main story elements.  You might have to 
fudge but it works.  The point is to get the Posse on the Unity with the 
Box...Thats it.  Fudge away to get there.
