Cool concept, exciting encounters, and lots of room to add your own stuff. At the end it even gives you some awesome ideas on how to expand the adventure. Oh and thats all in 23 pages plus a few more for maps and new monsters. I don't know if there is any other adventure that has this much awesome content in so few pages.Return to the Tomb of Horrors: Great Concept, poor execution.The idea of going back to the tomb and into its even deadlier areas is a winner. Moil is a great idea, and the fortress of conclusion is supposed to be like the original tomb, but even deadlier. All that said, this adventure is around 250 pages, and there is a lot of crap. It takes a long time to get back to the tomb. You need to fight some giants (why?), travel across a swamp (not bad), and infiltrate a necromancer city (decent) just to get to the tomb. Moil has some cool stuff there, but is too long. The fortress just doesn't hold up at all to the original tomb.Doomgrinder: Great Concept, poor execution.An ancient moving fortress rises from the earth and starts charging towards the City of Greyhawk. Awesome. It reminds me of the Technodrome from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The rest of the adventure goes on to detail how you should warn everyone in it's path. Then when it's time to actually get inside the fortress and take it down, the adventure just gives you some rules for randomly generating rooms and layouts. Completely devoid of any originality or excitement. I'm going to consider this the pinnacle of great concept, poor execution until someone one-ups me here.I don't know about great execution on this one. It contains a first person maze. It suggests running it as "Do you go left, right or forward?". Please spare me. Did you just rip that part out entirely?</blockquote>
