Now that sounds like a pretty good plot. And it should of worked out well to 
your liking, maybe the players didn't have the heart for it?  I know most of 
the ol gamers that are in my group are unwilling to try new rpg's... they 
like their fantasy and dive into that with a passion. When it comes to other 
genre's like contempary, futuristic or superheroes they don't have a passion 
for it like they do with fantasy.

As a GM I don't mind running fantasy, but I like to have run the odd game 
from the 200+ rpgs that I do have sitting on my self.

Don't let the first game let you down. I knwo they say first impressions are 
the best impressions. Give it the old college try and do it again. Run Bi3P 
and warp their fragile little minds. :)
