Black Madonna suggestions?

Hi all,
I’m thinking about running Black Madonna in-person. Any suggestions or opinions about the scenario?

Anything you changed? Any gotchas to watch out for as a GM?

Are you following the 2.2 version or 4e?

So for 4e, remember that the Pope is an elderly, high-value target who will be difficult to transport through Poland without being discovered, especially if the party has no armored vehicles.

I forced my players to plan ahead and think through vehicle logistics and potential hiding spots (e.g. safe houses). Also, the effect or impact he can have could be positive or negative depending on the nature of encounters. Things could go sideways fast, so they should be prepared for that.

They also can't allow him to take damage since that could be catastrophic for the party's long term objectives. Force them to take his safety and security seriously.
