pls recommend a 1st lvl adventure!(converting 3ed players to od&d!)

[rossik]

i know, theres a lot of material , but here's the thing:

i have some teenagers, 3ed players, who wanna play od&d with me, and im using the book with red dragon/small fighter in cover(the one with zanzer dungeon, or something like that, all inside a big box).

what do you recommend to DM?

also, any important tips on this task? should i expect something "tipical" from them?

Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh is good.
Keep on the Borderlands is good fun but, I think, needs a lot of DM fleshing out to make it come alive.

T1 VILLAGE OF HOMMLET

It kicks off one of the greatest rpg fantasy adventure series...well hell, the greatest fantasy RPG adventure series.

Hommlet and the Temple of Elemental Evil make for a great 1E experience.

If you want to stick with OD&D, I'd recommend the following from the B modules (listed according to personal taste):

The Lost City
Night's Dark Terror
Rahasia

I also like Horror on the Hill, but not everyone does.

Here is a nifty site with some great reviews of these modules.

You might consider B4 The Lost City, which has a cool REH/swords-n-sorcery feel to it. Check out my campaign log/notes (I'm running it with OD&D).

B1 is good.
B2 is good.
T1 is good.
The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh is good (UK1?)

Although it's for 2nd level+ PCs, you might want to look at Pod Caverns of the Sinister Shroom, too.

wow, really nice one!

I definitely second the mentions of Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh (U1) and Village of Hommlet (T1). If you don't mind a little conversion work from 3E, DCC #28 - Into the Wilds is a great intro adventure.

oh, tx, but i wanna Dm to them a od&d adventure...its not them, its me

 

[dragonlordofpoondari]

B1 is good.

I actually would not recommend this one, since it is a mostly empty dungeon meant to be filled in by the DM. Good for nostalgia, but not the best module IMHO. I would agree with your other recs, though.

All the above mentioned are best. I'll add B8 Journey to the Rock and N1 Against the Cult of the Reptile Gods as alternatives.
