What is the "Best. Ravenloft module. Ever?"

[Olgar Shiverstone]

I6, the original, having killed many parties and had many characters killed therein. I have two copies

Sorry to see ya go, Davelozzi Ummm ... can I have all your stuff?

Back to the thread, I6 Ravenloft. Accept no substitutes. I've must have run that one a dozen times back in the day and I'd gladly run it again tomorrow. Best module ever. Also had the worst sequel ever.

I am a HUGE fan of the original. Played through it twice, and ran it once. AWESOME piece of work.

 

[Mr Fidgit]

I6 Ravenloft, without question. i've also probably run that mod a dozen or more times

You can run I6 for a party of 3rd or 4th level characters.

Just remember that you are not playing "hack and slash". Instead, you are playing "Scooby Doo" or a "vampire movie", so the party is supposed to run and hide whenever they encounter monsters.

And the vampires sleep during the day.

Just make everything very spooky, and you can't go wrong.

After all, if the party defeated the vampire, that would ruin the fun.

(Also, I6 has various items to allow them to defeat Strahd without using min maxed combat characters).

Thanx for all the advice so far!

How about modules for geared towards characters of level 3 or 4? Also, how hard is it to scale down the modules mentioned above?

I didn't get a chance to read the whole thread, but Thoughts of Darkness is my absolute favorite.

Uh...whut?

Actually, I like Islands of Terror, particularly the adventures about, respectively, the sword Ebonbane and the giant crocodile. They aren't full=blown adventures, though. There was an adventure about Ebonbane in issue 31 of Dungeon - Bane of the Shadowborn - that would take some converting, but is actually worth it, I feel.

You know, I know where you live.

 

[Nightfall]

Does that mean if you kill him PC I get his stuff?

 

[Piratecat]

Do you want his new avatar and title, too?

 

[Nightfall]

No just his collection of RPG stuff. I'll sell the stuff I don't want and keep the rest. That way I have money for all the S&SS Player's Guides and other stuff.
