[QUOTE="Ibrandul, post: 8578873, member: 6871736"] I'm somewhat skeptical that OAR7 could be Against the Giants. If it's true, that would be the first time that Goodman Games has been granted permission to work their magic on an adventure for which WotC has already published their own 5e update (in Tales from the Yawning Portal). Of course, OAR6, Temple of Elemental Evil, has also sort of been updated by WotC in the form of Princes of the Apocalypse—but Princes is really just a thematic spiritual successor, and apart from the basic theme it is very different from Temple, whereas the version of Against the Giants in Tales from the Yawning Portal is a more straightforward mechanical conversion of its original module, more or less along the lines of what Goodman Games does in the OAR volumes (though with a rather different approach to the conversion, WotC being a rather different kind of design studio from Goodman Games). I had always assumed, and (perhaps mistakenly) thought that I had read somewhere, that WotC didn't want Goodman turning any module into an OAR book if WotC had already published their own 5e update of it or had plans to do so in the future. At any rate, if indeed OAR7 is Against the Giants, I would welcome that news, in large part because presumably it would indicate that the other adventures updated in Yawning Portal are also fair game for future OAR volumes, including my own favorite classic adventure, White Plume Mountain.
