all time Favorite module cover.

Twilight Calling is a weird little gem of the "M" series of basic adventures. It's the assumed final step before the PC's become immortals themselves, as they are tasked with defeating (in various ways) the immortal rulers of seven demiplanes.

You know, I agree... there was some wierd brilliance in the "M" series. I also had module M5, Talons of Night (but never ran it). If I recall, it had a whole ancient Egyptian-like civilization, time travel, an evil demigod pharoah, dimensional travel, an opportunity to fix the initial glitch that put the empires Thyatis and Alphatia at war for all time, and a unique mini-game on how to run a diplomatic effort between the empires. Really stuffed with content and ideas, even if execution was sometimes slapdash.

And of course the cover had like, an atomic-powered Cthulhu monster or something.

I always was hoping that TSR would republish the X, C, M series in a softbound collection (like they did with B1-9).

Throne of Bloodstone was pretty darn kewl...

Another vote for Temple of Elemental Evil.

Spooky. Enticing and threatening at the same time. Oozes adventure.

DwarvenDog, Delta:

Thanks for the info. I have to say I love the covers for both modules posted (especially M5!), although the idea of running them as described boggles my mind a touch. If I can find them on the cheap I may pick them up to mine, or at least to keep the covers around for inspiration.

My fav module covers are the Planescape module, 'In the Abyss."

That's a very neat cover, but that ain't a module. That's the Red Box, the second RL setting box.

I vote for G 1-2-3 with Ravenloft a close second.

Ravenloft module factoid: There's nowhere in the module, i.e. in Castle Ravenloft, that corresponds to the depiction in the cover art.

Ravenloft

same as many: temple of elemental evil and queen of spiders
