There's a bit of conversion to do, obviously, but I think it'd be the most rewarding. You'd then have the Diablo I setting and new-to-gamers surrounding areas detailed, as well as a pretty decent dungeon with -- to me -- a real old school vibe.Also look for the freebies on the WotC site, which were pretty good as I recall (I used one in my Five Shires halfling campaign, in fact, putting a portal to the minidungeon in a book a foolish halfling opened and fell into). No idea if they're still up, but hopefully they are.In comparison, the 3E books don't really have much in the way of setting, as I recall, which is a shame, since Diablo II travels around and adds a lot of setting info. It also doesn't cover the Diablo II expansion, of course.</blockquote>
