D&D 4E 4E "Return to" adventures

[johan_seraphim]

Return to Dark Sun. (If only in my fondest dreams.)

YES


The Dark Sun setting needs to make a comeback!

The whole redone issue of previous adventures is something I'm very curious to see how 4e handles it.

Some like White Plume Mountain would bei nteresting not just for the odd design of the original dungeon and it's traps, but the unique magic items contained within it including the Stormbringer homage.

Actually, I'd really like to see tomb of horrors _without_ all the dreadful 'and die' stuff... would be one of the more interesting conversions.

I don't know -- to me, this would be like watching a classic cartoon by only watching every thousandth frame, instead of the whole thing. Part of what made Tomb of Horrors legendary in its day was its status as a "one wrong move in the deathtrap" game.

I have to assume we're getting against the giants at some point, though... I mean, they've got the tile set and the mini set and they spruced giants up with elemental powers and titan overlords?

That and there's actual elemental evil now, so that one feels like a gimme too.

Hearty agreement with both of those. The Giant Steading/Rift/Halls would be cool as heck with all those "new powers" or whatnot that enemies sport in 4e.

Another vote for Desert of Desolation. Made of awesome! And not a return either, but a re-envisioning. (Also change the lame ending. Not that it wasn't already easy to change, but there you are.)

Someone mentioned Chateau d'Amberville (is Castle Amber something different?), and I'd like to see that too. Good times...

Well...Im going to...

Im going to retool the old D&D gazateers to 4th ed. Not the advanced down the years of Mystara campaign. But Eberron reminds me a LOT of Glantri. And Im moving the artificer class over even if its npc only. Glantri and Eberron were made for each other!

I think it would perhaps be more interesting to go with more original iterations of names... However, there is a problem that it is hard to make a name that looks right in being extremely long that is not " Return to " .

The Desert of Desolation is Doomed

Burying the Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh

Rallying Against the Giants

Pilgrimage to the Barrier Peaks

Breaking the Vault of the Drow

I want to see new, completely redesigned and reimagined versions (that is, not just reprints with 4e stats) of:

Temple of Elemental Evil - the new cosmology is perfect for this.

Against the Giants - I'm not too familiar with this series, but, again, the new cosmology could make this a great campaign.

Queen of the Demonweb Pits - Lolth and the Drow should make a comeback.

I think these should all be campaigns. That is, Against the Giants should culminate in a battle with an army of Giants and a battle with a Titan. ToEE should culminate with an epic battle with Tharizdun.
