What 1st ed AD&D Adventures are the Best? List them here!

What are the best, all time, classic adventures?

This thread is to nominate the best 1st ed AD&D adventure modules. This excludes OD&D, B/ED&D (Companion, Masters and Immortals box sets, as well as the Rules Cyclopedia); 2nd ed AD&D and 3.0/3.5/D20 D&D, which will be covered in other threads.

There are lots of possibilities, so let me know, which are the best, including any left out, and which should be left out.

Nominations from other editions:
OD&D and B/ED&D

D1
D2
G1
G2
G3

they belong separate.

edit: for me after waiting years for its release... T1-4 which should've been T2...was a huge disappointment. i lost all respect for its author at the time.
edit2: and the release of UA too confirmed my disappointment.

Would D1 be classic, and D2 not? Just as long as it doesn't skew the results...

which is why T1 is seperate from T1-4...

My 10 faves...

D1-2 Descent into the Depth of the Earth
D3 Vault of the Drow
G1-2-3 Against the Giants
I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City
L1 Secret Bone Hill
S1 Tomb of Horros
S3 Expedition to the Barrier Peaks
S4 Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth
WG4 Forgetten Temple of Tharizdun
T1 Village of Hommlet

I generally think that the A-series and Tracy Hickman's I-series adventures are overrated, but not bad.

Much of the stuff that came out at the very tail end of 1e's existance is utter dog-poop. The two that come to mind immediately are WG7 Castle Greyhawk and FRC1 Ruins of Adventure. You get the sense that, knowing 2e was about to come out, they weren't trying very hard anymore on the 1e stuff.

And a note, the FR-series were sourcebooks and not adventures, at least during the 1e years.

D1-3
I3-5

but D1-2 was another product released. so was G1-2-3. true they were similar.

so was S1-4... which is not classic. even tho, individually they are. these things should not be tied together.

Here's my favs, w/ the U1 being tops for entertainment perposes.

A1 Slave Pits of the Undercity
A2 Secret of the Slavers Stockade
A3 Assault on the Aerie of the Slave Lords
A4 In the Dungeons of the Slave Lords
G1-2-3 Against the Giants
S2 White Plume Mountain
S3 Expedition to the Barrier Peaks
U1 Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh

FR1: Waterdeep and the North doesn't fit your criteria (it's a sourcebook, not an adventure).

Judges Guild's "Dark Tower"

N4: Treasure Hunt

UK2: The Gauntlet, UK3: The Sentinel, UK4: When a Star Falls, UK6: All That Glitters

R1: To the Aid of Falx, R2: Investigation at Hydell, R3: Egg of the Phoenix, R4: Doc's Island

D3: Vault of the Drow
B2: Keep on the Borderlands
