Actually, this lets me re-frame my request/question: What are some great, even "the best," location-based low-level modules of any edition? I'm tempted to start a new thread but I'll refrain!EDIT: by "location-based" I mean along the lines of what James Maliszewski discusses <a href="http://grognardia.blogspot.com/2008/08/locale-and-plot.html" target="_blank">here</a>. A quote:If you're looking for a good signpost in determining where the old  school ends and the new one begins, it's the shift in emphasis from  locales to plots. It's not a hard and fast division; there are examples  of both on either side of the line. Nevertheless, I think the  expectation that a module "tell a story" rather than provide a location  for a story of your own devising is a good indicator of where one's  gaming sympathies lie. In that framing, I'm looking for a good "old school" adventure - one that is about a party exploring a location. I can drop my plot hooks into it as I see fit.</blockquote>
