[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 1745869, member: 945"] I ran a highly modified CD1 for my players. I cut out some rooms completely, and altered some of the contents of some of the rooms. Mostly because I changed it from a demon's fortress to that of a vampire's fortress, but he had demonic ties, so it was all good. :) I think, for what I paid for it ($0), it was an excellent resource! And I say that with all sincerity. Some of the rooms were clever, and in general, it saved me a lot of work. Obviously, not everyone will need a CR 14 dungeon, but I happened to need one, and it worked out great for me. Some comments - I think the CDs have come a long way, and current contributors are purposefully working with each other now to create synergies and tie rooms together. This has the effect of creating a much more "alive" dungeon. Some negatives: The dungeons themselves are kind of boring. Trainz has usually put them together, and they are all traditional, two-dimensional things with square/rectangular rooms. I realize this can be used with Trainz's Interactive dungeon program while, while neat, is really limited. I prefer my dungeons to be far more complex affairs, with multiple levels, and odd-shaped rooms and corridors. That said, I'd like to see the next CDs to be much more elaborate - an ice cave, a volcanic fortress, or a limestone cavern complex. Those would all be far more interesting than just yet another dungeon. [/QUOTE]
