    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    Agreed, and it even calls it a campaign in the introduction. This was another module just ripe for pillaging for other uses, along with their other adventure, Leviathan, which I ended up running for my friends.

    D&D General 50th Anniversary- Are You Not Entertained?

    Agreed. I never played the originals, but these "new" modules had great mileage with my group in high school/college during our 2e days. I would love to see something like this for something like Night Below from the 2e era.

    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    I actually did this with the official Oblivion guide for my 3e and Pathfinder games. I enjoyed the side quests and none of my friends had played Oblivion, so I was able to easily slip them into my game sessions without them noticing.

    I ran the top layer, too. The kid befriended Meepo long enough to watch him die a tragic death an hour later :eek:

    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    When SKT was released, it was the book I used to enhance my group's playthrough of PotA. I love the map of Triboar! It almost became a base of operations for the players.

    T1 was my brother's go-to supplement for his game. And I am so glad I have a friend who ran it for us decades ago. Again, this was one of those adventures where I can easily steal a map of a building for my own group on a whim.

    I have a copy of this and I agree it is so much with material. I just need to find a time when my main group can sit down together so I can finally use it!

    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    I definitely pillaged a few encounters and maps from here. The kid had a delight meeting the NPCs and she has more of an attachment to those characters than the ones from the Sword Coast.

    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    This was the first of the 5e adventures I ran. And I agree, my friends had a blast with the stuff that took place on the surface area of that region. If my current group ever wanders into that area, I'll be sure reuse those same maps and some of the side plots I enjoyed running.

    Same here with Dragon Heist. I never got around to buying Descent into Avernus (I was hoping one of my friends would have ran it for me), but I'm sure I'd find a lot to use there.

    Yes! I've taken ideas/maps from that one, as well.

    What adventure module have you pillaged the most without using the main plot?

    For me, I wasn't a fan of the main plot for D&D's Tomb of Annihilation, but I loved the city of Port Nyanzaru, the forbidden city of Omu, the jungle encounters, and I absolutely loved the maps it came with. I "ran" this module using my own home-brewed swashbuckling story for a group of friends...

    D&D General What got you to try D&D?

    When I was 12, this ad kept appearing in almost every issue of the early 90s Spider-man I bought. It wasn't until I visited the library and found a hardcover book by a certain, J. Eric Holmes M.D. called "Fantasy Role-Playing Games," where I turned to the first page of the first chapter: I...
