Best adventures from Dungeon Magazine

I thoroughly enjoyed running the 'Challenge of Champions' adventures. It was good to have my players not immediately checking their character sheets when a problem appeared, but having to think for themselves for a bit.

And the last one I incorporated lead on to some great plot hooks, as they 'won', and became 'celebrities' in the city. So they were often being asked to do things for the city council, ranging from helping to repel an attempt to sack the city to putting on a display during a holiday festival. :D
