[QUOTE="Mac Golden, post: 2014914, member: 2783"] Hello, I'm the author of the module and one of the original owners of Troll Lord Games. Handtrembler, I'm truly sorry you there was nothing of interest or value to you in "The Fantastic Adventure." A couple of facts, however, do need to be cleared up. The copy reviewed is not a d20 system module. Troll Lord Games debuted with 3 generic modules just before the d20 license became official. "The Fantastic Adventure" was one of the generic modules, and yes, the production standards for the original printing are not industry standard or the standard that TLG publishes today. Each of them, however, were only $4.95 for 24 pages. After d20 hit, TLG published one of the first adventures under it, "A Lion in the Ropes," and followed that publication with revised, d20 versions of the original generic adventures. The picture above is the revised d20 "The Fantastic Adventure." If there were pictures of the original and revised versions, you would be able to see the marked upgrade in cover production quality. Again, I'm sorry this reviewer disliked the adventure so much, but, when the revised versions came out, there were several reviews of them. "The Fantastic Adventure" was one of a handful of d20 adventures that ever garnered 4 Stars from Backstab magazine. I'm certainly willing to answer any more questions. Cheers, Mac [/QUOTE]
