Recommended levels spanning a 4-level range was common on 1e adventures; some even had a 5-level range (e.g. WGA4 Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun, for characters level 5-10). Inside there'd sometimes be a suggested total party level as well.

I know it's just funny now. They usually recommend total levels as well.

my first accepted and printed article for TSR. Quite a thrill, as you might guess....

I read a couple of his posts, which was all I could stomach. My take on it was that he had very very very very* specific ideas on what an adventure should be, and anything that didn't meet those ideas was pure and utter dreck.

Not familiar with them. I guess he had a 1E or B/X dungeon hack is D&D's one true way opinion?

Oh I didn't know either way. Personally I like variety, not all will appeal of course.

5...6...7...8...9...10...that's actually a 6-level range.

You're quite right, of course. My thinking went "10 minus 5 is 5 so yeah, that's a 5-level range".

And it's back to arithmetic school for ol' Lanny, I think...
