[QUOTE="pming, post: 7673123, member: 45197"] Hiya. I actually just kinda "randomly choose" those. I thought LMoP was definitely a step up from what the 3.x stuff I've played/DM'ed. I was quite dissapointed when Hoard came out and obviously didn't follow the same sort of "sandbox'ey with story (or not) background". Anyway, I choose Hoard because it was kinda right there in front of me when I looked around my desk here. I haven't DM'ed it...did a quick scan and look see for it. I wasn't impressed, and I guess I'm not alone in that. The Princes of the Apocalypse has had some good reviews; I don't have it though, and I'm not forking over the $$$ for it until I have $40 to blow ...or invest happily...depending on if I like it or not. But $40 on a chance I'll like it is unlikely at this point. I lost faith in "modules" at the mid to end of 2e, mostly. The only 'modern' modules I've liked (generally speaking) have been the Dungeon Crawl Classics (even if they were made for 3.x), the actual "DCC RPG" modules, and a lot of the ones put out in the name of the "OSR movement" (or whatever you want to call it). As for I1, again, it was kinda just here. Yes, it is a great module. And yes, *it* is worth $40 to me. Is Quagmire? Doubt it; I'd have to dig it out or find out who I lent it too. Lost Island of Castanamire? Have it...never got around to playing it, so I don't know what my 'value' of it would be. Bad 1e modules I own? Hmmm... Didn't like "Baltron's Beakon", "The Forest Oracle" (mainly due to it having absolutely horrid editing!) or "Castle Greyhawk" (the "funny ha-ha" one with the pink cover). Definitly wouldn't pay anything for that last one! *fume* [I](EDIT: Wait...is that one even 1e? Or is that one on the 'cusp' of the change over into 2e? Either way, it sucked donkey snacks!)[/I] But in all honesty, I find just about [I]every[/I] 1e module significantly more useful than just about any 3.x/PF, and yes, even 5e...but modules are still a bit scarce for it. If I could have "$250 worth of either 1e modules, or 3.x/PF/5e modules", I'd choose 1e in a heartbeat. I look at my 1e modules and am hard pressed to find more than two or three that I feel are absolute stinkers. About another two or three of "meh" ones. All the others range from "Yeah, decent and workable" up to "OMFG This Module Is AMAZING!" (Decent/Workable = "To Find a King" // OMFG!!! = "Dwellers of the Forbidden City"). ^_^ Paul L.
