A 5th level D&D3E fighter could wipe the floor with a 5th level 1st edition AD&D fighter.The biggest problem is with the dragons, since they're far more powerful in 3e than they ever were before. You've got two options here - drop their age category, or realize that the whole point of a dragon in these modules is to be part of the plot. There's always a widget that helps you defeat the dragon. In Onyx's case in DL1, it's the Blue Crystal Staff. All you need is a melee touch attack against her and she's destroyed. Given she's only got a Dex of 10, all you do is have one character waste her attack of opportunity (and likely get killed, but hey...) and then Goldmoon rushes in the same round, smacking at that AC 7 with her staff. Instant fireworks.Cheers,Cam</blockquote>
