Forked Thread: Disappointed in 4e - 3.x Classic Modules

Red Hand of Doom
If I am not mistaken it has spawned an entire 4E adventure path as a sequel.

I suspect there probably won't be any classic 3.x modules, because I doubt any have been so widely played, in part because there were so many options available. That really says nothing about the quality of the individual adventures, of course.

If there are any classics, the most likely are "The Sunless Citadel" and "Red Hand of Doom".

Red Hand of Doom

Agreed. It is a classic.

If I am not mistaken it has spawned an entire 4E adventure path as a sequel.

Having seen the early adventures I would say you are mistaken, it hardly touches on the setting at all. It would be like saying the Spanish Civil war 1936 was a campaign based on the Christian Spain recapturing Muslim Spain in 1212. Sure it uses the same location, but they haven't recalled any of the former cast of characters. Although actually you would change the geography dramatically as well.

Most likely Red Hand of Doom - it's really the only 3.x era adventure I've really ever heard of anyone praising (at least in terms of stuff by WotC). I've never played it so I can only speculate.
Personally, it'd have to be Tomb of Abysthor. Hands down. That ate MONTHS of extremely fun gaming.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Green Ronin's Freeport trilogy

*facepalm* Me too - especially given that I'm running it right now. D'oh.

Age of Worms will be considered a classic (if its not already considered as such).
