That sounds like a solid idea. I think I'll do the same.
As for me, I haven't had a chance yet to run anyone else through TFT. I think I'll do Tollenkar's Lair as a mini-campaign, adding in some wilderness encounters and small labyrinths, with the culmination being an assault on the lower levels. If they're having fun, I'll have Tollenkar himself escape to be a recurring villain. I'm working on some notes on how he could work with the Chaos Triad adventure.
I have been running through Death Test to familiarize myself with the rules. I completed it on my fourth run, with a middling final score. I'm going to keep at it until I've got the rest of the labyrinth mapped and I feel confident that I've got the rules down; I still need to practice HTH and remembering all of my options. I had a few moments where I was kicking myself that I'd forgotten to move a figure or that someone's weapon was unready. Then I'll tackle Death Test 2.
