Dungeon Adventure Levels

be nice to add the RPGA 4e adventures as well
Maybe, but most people don't have access to them, and unless you sign up and actually DM or play one, you'll never get a chance to find out if they are good.

I wish the LFR adventures were available to DDI subscribers to download as well.

I was just thinking this the other day. Not enough low level adventures. I do enjoy access to Dungeon but it lacks in usable adventures for my party. Sure you can get the GG stuff for now, but I think maybe WotC should concentrate on lower level stuff at times. A 12th level adventure is cool to read and all but I won't be using it for a long while, we start a 1st level and play once a week and it's been slow going.
While I sort of agree, we have to keep in mind that there are a lot of gamers that are playing higher level 4e or converted existing campaigns over.

Also, it's only been out for less than a year. They'll catch up with a nice spread.

It is possible to take a SoW adventure and let it stand on it's own, and though it would take a little work it wouldn't take much. It's one of the issues that the SoW DM's have.... there's still a bit of disconnect between adventures. This is the double edged sword. If you better define the continuity and tightly weave the adventures together, then they are harder to use as a single one-shot or less applicable for use by a non-SoW DM.

If you're going to map all these out, I would recommend (at the least) including adventures physically published by WotC as well as what's in dungeon. H1 was actually published before the 4e books came out, so I think there is something of an assumption that many groups will start off with that adventure.

Also I would generally agree with the sentiment in this thread that lower level adventures are easier to concoct that higher level adventures. Aside from the kobold/goblin/undead overload, you could use fewer level 2 or 3 monsters, or make up your own. The lower the level, the easier the math (smaller numbers) and hence the easier it is to make slight variations.

As a final add-on, I had concerned myself with this topic a few days ago and recalled a post in another thread similarly detailing adventures and their level distribution:

it seems decently up-to-date but it may be missing some of the latest adventures.
 

“MENACE OF THE ICY SPIRE” is a Dungeons & Dragons® adventure for five characters of 2nd level.

No biggie just thought you might like to update your hard work, which is much appreciated by yours truly.
