Which of the many available versions of core Ravenloft is your favorite?

w00t, first vote!

I picked "Ravenloft Campaign Setting (AD&D 2e Boxed Set)", though Ravenloft 3.0/3.5 was a very cool conversion and almost tied with the 2e boxed set.

I picked the original module, as it was just so damn cool. I have a lot of love for the Realm of Terror boxed set, though (which was for AD&D 2e, not AD&D 1e, by the way ). The other stuff was also good - Ravenloft had very few duds in its product line - but the original has a special place in my heart and gaming library. It's the adventure I always turn to when I want to introduce people to D&D as a hobby.

The 2E stuff for the most part. I had a long running RL campaign with great modules like Touch of Death, Feast of Goblyns, Ship of Horrors etc.

Late Edit*** I bought every 3/3.5E RL product as well, great stuff.... but no modules.

I6 Ravenloft. "Expedition to..." wasn't bad either, though it was marred by the wretched 'delve' format (though that format was implemented best in Expedition).

(Aside: The Realm of Terror box was 2e.)

I6

It took the D&D dungeon delve format in a totally different way, and the card reading mechanic was a bit of shear brilliance on the part of Tracy.

I chose Domains of Dread, myself. For me, this was as complete as Ravenloft (the setting) ever got under one cover. I often wished that TSR would have appended some basic play rules, just so the product would have achieved true standalone status.

Err. Dbl-post. Sorry.

You forgot about RM4 Ravenloft: The House of Strahd revision of I6. It's pretty much the same, except Strahd is more powerful.

A lot of good stuff has come out with "Ravenloft" in the title somewhere.

But I6 is hard to beat. And hasn't been.
