[QUOTE="Ghost2020, post: 7706176, member: 6786"] I'm glad there is more product coming out, always a good thing. I am, however disappointed that it's rehashed stuff, i was hoping for something new. I understand that quite a large number of people have never played or run these adventures. I've run/played all of them except Dead in Thay. The choices weren't terribly inspired either. Dead in Thay was not a classic, not in the slightest. Why not I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City? A far superior adventure to Shrine. Why not Ghost Tower of Inverness? Great dungeon, and plays quickly. Against the Giants? Bleh. As people said, we just had giants. Lost Cavern of Tsojcanth? How about Tomb of the Lizard King? How about a trek through Undermountain to round it out at the end? Tomb of Horrors is just tired. It doesn't make for super adventuring. The follow up 2nd ed boxed set and the 4th ed set were good as it expanded on the base story. Why not see some basic or expert adventures converted too, just for the fun of it? I'm sure it'll be a very good product, I'm just feeling it's fairly lazy on their part. The upside is that a new generation will get to experience these classics (aside from Dead in Thay- NOT a classic :) ) So there's that. [/QUOTE]
