A couple of interesting posts in Quasqueton's classic adventure thread helped crystallise some ideas that have been floating about for a while.
Is there any interest in a series of threads, in the same vein as Quasqueton's, that deal with the "younger classics" - namely those adventures that appeared during the years of AD&D2e (and late 1e)?
Quas' classic adventure discussion threads are an excellent look at the greats of early D&D adventures. It would be equally enjoyable, imho, to see some discussion of the adventures that appeared in the years following their release. The adventures of the 2e era don't have the vintage of the GDQ series, or the ToH, but there are certainly some interesting releases from that time.
In addition to the big boxed sets like Night Below, Dragon Mountain, Rod of Seven Parts and the like, there are also the many campaign-specific releases from TSR's various game worlds, including adventures like Dragon's Crown, Dead Gods, Wildspace and Curse of the Azure Bonds. All classics of their time, if you ask me.
Although there might not be as many players able to comment on those (especially as the proliferation of campaign worlds splintered the player-base), I'd like to hear what folks think. If there is interest, I'll get a series of threads started to dust of the "younger classics" and see how they fare when laid bare to public scrutiny...
