It was fighting the hordes of Orcus, the servants of Lolth, and armies of undead serving some Lich (good liches need not apply). It was paladins and cavaliers, assassins and thief-acrobats, wizards and illusionists, monks and bards. It was killing the guards as you ascended the tower stairs, knowing that the BBEG was waiting for you, and wondering how you were going to beat him. IMHO, 3E has done a good job of getting back to the basics of the dungeon crawl, of evoking the feel of 1E. It is versatile enough that you can run a campaign with that 1E feel, or a story heavy campaign where whole sessions might pass without rolling the dice. I have actually done both, and they were fun. A lot of fun.</blockquote>
