[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 1944903, member: 1210"] I mostly write my own adventures, but some of the time I run published stuff... and some of that stuff is [i]long[/i] (Return to the Tomb of Horrors, I'm looking at you!). I do pull a lot of stuff from 'what has gone before' in my campaign, and some of that relates to later plot threads. Let's see- since 3e came out, I've run the following published stuff: [i]Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil[/i] (about 20% of it- the group just dabbled in it) [i]Of Sound Mind Return to the Tomb of Horrors[/i] (skipped the first about 15%) [i]The Gates of Firestorm Peak[/i] Now, figure that we've prolly averaged 2 games/week since 3e came out, and you get the idea that we've gamed an awful lot. :) So, given the quanitity of dnd in my group, that's not a lot of published work. (Most of it was significantly altered, too, with the exception of OSM and GoFSP.) Edit: Oh, yeah- why do I prefer to write most of my own stuff? To me much of the joy of dming is campaign construction. I love building monsters, I love weaving convoluted plot lines together, I love tying it all to the pcs. Modules both leave less room for this and also don't usually fit the setting quite as well either (in my experience and opinion). [/QUOTE]
