[QUOTE="Gorg, post: 9539229, member: 7029501"] How difficult is it to convert 3e material to 5e? can I simply substitute the 5e version of monsters for those in a written adventure and call it good? I presume some individuals will take some work- like advanced versions or those with PC classes. And treasures will need some rework, since this version went a totally different direction with magic items- in an effort to rein in out of control power creep. Some spells will likely need exchanging, too. But for those like me, who have loads of 3e adventures, suppliments etc still lurking on our shelves- many of which I never got to play/run before our groups disappeared- how much work is it? I'm currently looking at Forge of Fury, which would fit nicely in the area around Phandalin, and the sandbox style of mini adventures therein to choose from. Also, just found a forgotten stack o' stuff that includes the Forgotten Realms adventure : The Twilight Tomb. (which I didn't even know I had!) Which looks REALLY interesting. My game group includes 3 old school grognards, and up to 4 younguns , 3 are their kids, 1 is kid's fiancee. [/QUOTE]
