[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 5284425, member: 29398"] I'm pretty much edition-neutral when it comes to buying and running TSR/WotC D+D adventures...so far in my current 1e-based game I've used 0e, 1e, 3e and 4e adventures - haven't hit 2e yet mostly because nothing's fit well. The only things I look for are a) whether it's a good adventure, b) the general layout and use of space, and c) whether I think I can use it or steal ideas from it at some point down the road. 3rd-party stuff is another matter entirely. There, I have to see what system they're using (e.g. old Judges' Guild stuff where they used their own nearly-incomprehensible stats system) and whether I can figure it out; and I tend to avoid early 3e-era OGL stuff as what I did end up getting at the time was universally bad. Speaking of off-edition adventures, has anyone tried running [I]Orcs of Stonefang Pass[/I] (4e) yet, in any edition? I've bought it and read it; it looks good, but I'm not sure if it'll play as well as it reads. I found that with [I]Keep on the Shadowfell[/I] - most of it (actually, all of it except about the last 5 encounters) didn't play nearly as well as it read. Lanefan [/QUOTE]
