It's an urban adventure path which moves the PCs out of the city only for parts 4 and 5 in a six-part campaign.Rappan Athuk and Castle Whiterock are Mega-Dungeons in the vein of Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil (stripped of its first 30 pages). If that's what you like, I'd heavily recommend Whiterock for its humour and flavour. Rappan Athuk on the other hand is the ultimate contest for player skill, and so generates a more serious, competitive environment.I'd go for Rise of the Runelords. It's iconic D&D at its best. If you pick that option I strongly recommend you to either get a Player's Guid to or the Map Folio. These contain maps of the homebase (incidentally, not a city) which figures large in key moments the campaign, as well as a regional map of the entire adventure path (Varisia). The Map Folio got these supersized, and I found them the most valuable asset when I ran Rise, as these were on our table fairly often.Finally, the opening encounters in Rise's first instalment (Burnt Offerings) work remarkably well in unison with a Dungeon Tiles set designed by Jason Bulmahn - Streets of Shadow.</blockquote>
