[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 3405668, member: 467"] Well, a suggestion for 1st was made and I said "go for it." I am in a wierd place regarding 3e right now. As much as there are things about the game i love to death, and find it very fun to play, I am hitting soem creative and practical roadblocks running it. As I re-read my RC, my AD&D1 books and my 2nd Ed books, I realize that the extra-good things about 3e are, by and large, not quite enough to make those roadblocks worth it. Note that this is for me, the way I run game, and the kind of D&D I enjoy as a DM in particular. I am not trying to start an edition war. Anyway, the reason I was asking about site based adventures specifically is because I like the idea of developinga campaign area and a general view of cultures and politics and whatnot, and then populating it with fairly static adventures locales that I can use for whatever prupose I like, or allow the PCs to explore what they like. Having a good old fashioned dungeon in hex R24 is useful: I can create an adventure in which something is down there in room 314 that someone wants, an adventure in which the villain is hiding out there, or any number of other options. But the dungeon is done and would require only a minimum of effort on my part to make fit the campaign. Adventures built heavily on plot, or designed for existing worlds, or with too many built in assumptions aren't as useful for this purpose. [/QUOTE]
