[QUOTE="bmfrosty, post: 9308698, member: 6788547"] I'm not disagreeing with you here. Please don't take that this post as that. I [I]may[/I] be coming in here as a bit of a non-sequitur, but I'm in the process of reading the orange cover version of the Palace of the Silver Princess. I started with 5th edition D&D and transitioned to DCC, and am now playing and running bits of Labyrinth Lord and Shadowdark. So far, it seems like a bit of a setting with a bunch of areas, a couple of NPCs being the Tinker and his Daughter, and then inside the dungeon itself it's mostly a bunch of rooms with some monster and room descriptions and some box text and not a whole lot to tie them together. I've run into some bits and pieces of things that could be attached to an overarching plot, but not anything like what I saw in 5th edition. What I'm trying to get to is that in between the lines is room for expansion to a much larger work, but it would take some work to do so, work that was in the time of this module's non-publication left to individual DMs, while a modern version of it might fill in those 32ish pages to make for a longer book length. What one prefers as a DM is entirely up to the individual. [/QUOTE]
