Challenge of Champs-How were they?

[Emirikol]

All: I need a rating on the Challenge of Champion scenarios from Dungeon to complete my index of issues with quality ratings. Has anybody here played them (or even just read them) and wish to critique them?

Quality Rating Scale
These ratings are suggested by DM’s who have run or read the adventures and submitted them to me (jayhafner@lycos.com). The quality rating of each scenario is measured using the average of several criteria as listed below.

Criteria of Quality
Writing (originality, quality, utility, plot)
Content (maps, future use, NPC’s, monsters)
Challenge (appropriateness & depth)
Fun (how much embellishment did the DM have to do for his players to make it good?)

Quality Ratings
* = Average (descriptor if worse)
** = Good
*** = Great (descriptor necessary)
**** = Best scenario this year (descriptor necessary)

Multiple listings will be evident as different DM’s send in their ratings.


The five adventures appeared in issues #58, 69, 80, 91, and 108.)

Thanks!

It has been a long while since I read #80 or #91, but I would have to say without a doubt that 108 is the weakest of these three overall IMO - Somewhat of a let-down, as I really enjoyed the last two. Sorry I won't be able to give you a more formal rating of each scenario.

I'm going to rank them as:

#1?
#2?
#3**
#4**
#5*

Sound good?
