I was mostly able to keep the monsters, but had to radically modify the number to meet 5E's encounter building guidelines. Some monsters I had to make conversions of, but it wasn't too hard. I'd run Temple of Elemental Evil, Against the Giants, and Isle the Ape multiple times back in AD&D, so I was really familiar with them.I'd have to say it was my most successful 5E campaign, despite being my first one. I had a clear plan, where the party was going to deal with the Slave Lords instead of going into the Yatil Mountains for the Lost Caverns/Forgotten Temple, but the party's actions in Temple of Elemental Evil made that less realistic, since they rescued Prince Thrommel, who'd want them to stay in/near the Western Marklands. The party became minor nobility, with one PC becoming a Baron by marriage, which was fun for everyone. The middle part (Against the Giants and Descent into the Depths of the Earth) were kind of a slog, but the final battle against Lolth made up for it.</blockquote>
