[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 2691017, member: 10479"] I suspect most folks wil only know one or two, perhaps a handful at most. Still, I'm wondering also if people changed them significantly to fit their game (level-wise or otherwise) and if they used them to fill gaps or had planned them in from the beginning of a campaign, etc. Actually, anything at all about how any of the above adventures were used is of interest to me, I guess. :) Never did [i]run them[/i], myself, but I am wondering what others might have done since there freebies get a lot of post-play on these boards. Curiosity. So, the reputation of the author played a part in the decision to use them (certainly fair enough) but was that prior to actually reading any of them or did you just read the ones by authors you knew you'd likely enjoy? Did you take the time to check out any of the other authors and, if so, which ones? That's a clever way to work that into a campaign. Nice. It avoids the problem of having to potentially pull your punches later with the BBEG which can possibly ruin the whole campaign (with a watered-down finale). I wonder how many villains die simply for lack of cover? :D All in all it seems you made good use of what you snagged from their freebies. Overall, you must feel that it is a useful resource to have available, I would guess. Well, in all fairness, I just copied them and put some break between the levels. It's a fairly complete list/pile of adventures they've accumulated over the last few years from some quality sources, isn't it? Well, I'll state the obvious and say that is a very impressive use of available resources! I love the way you tied it all together and can only guess that you explored the resources first and then determined the nature of the campaign? (As opposed to planning the campaign and incidently being able to plug in so many of the freebies?) Very cool, indeed, and one I think any DM would be wise to copy and keep on a disc as a back-up campaign (or to use for their next one!) How did it go, overall? Any particular pitfalls worth noting? Looks like you have a good campaign going and have some great plans for it. How many players? Are these people you have GM'd before? It sounds like you sit behind the screen fairly regularly. Thanks to everyone who has posted so far! I'm keen to hear more, too! :) [/QUOTE]
