What module are you running?

In my Swashbuckling in Freeport campaign the party just completed an abbreviated version of Black Sails Over Freeport and dove right into Porphyry House Horror (Dungeon #95).

I play in an Age of Worms campaign where we just started Gathering of Winds (Dungeon #125).

I am DMing two games:
In my Age of Worms campaign, I am running the module "A Gathering of Winds".
In my Ptolus campaign, I am running the module "The Night of Dissolution."
 

As DM:

1) Sunless Citadel. 4 2nd level characters, 1 1st level. This games meets live every 2-3 months.

2) The Standing Stones. 8 characters, levels 5-7 after leveling up. They're just tying up some loose ends now. This game is played over email.

3) Blackguard's Revenge. 4 characters, about 9th level. This game gets played about once a year, at Christmas time, with old college friends. They just defeated the main enemy force, but need to deal with the boss monster.

As a player:

The World's Largest Dungeon. 6 characters, levels 3-4. We're on the second level of the dungeon.
 

Group A recently finished a converted Beckoner in the Dark (a From the Ashes adventure card) and may be returning to Tammeraut's Fate printed in Dungeon 106. They completed most of Tammeraut's Fate some time ago but left a few unfortunate loose ends that may come back to bite them (literally). This is our main game and slotting these modules into my own campaign has worked very well.

Group B just finished the free WoTC adventure Something's Cooking. I was dubious about this one as I'm not a big fan of "tongue-in-cheek" adventures but, with some very slight twists, it actually ended up more sinister than I expected. The players enjoyed themselves, that's for sure.

Group C are about 1/4 through DCC 3 The Mysterious Tower. Some of the players from Group B are in this one. Truly captured that classic feel and has been a load of fun so far. Thank you, Goodman Games!
 

I've been running the Shackled City Adventure Path (we are on Foundations of Flame now). I also had a game where I was running Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil, which came to a halt when my players for that game moved away. Now they are back so we are planning to likely resume that game where we left off.
 

In my upcoming Eberron/Ptolus/Eberron campaign, I will be running the party through a mix of homebrewed, freeport (Death/Terror/Madness/Tales of/Hell in/Black Sails/Crisis), and Ptolus. Should be a swashbuckling good time. (If the campaign ever finishes...)
 


I am running Monte Cook's the Harrowing from Dungeon #84. The party just finished Lord of the Iron Fortress and I deemed them a tad delicate for Bastion of Broken Souls, so I'm giving them a confidence booster. And I at least need them to have ninth-level spells for BoBS.

I think they are all overtreasured. I have been quite generous with the loot along the way, and it seems like they all have about one level higher's worth of loot. the Harrowing is written for four 15th-level PCs, yet the party is four 16th-level PCs plus one 17th-level PC. My solution is to greatly accelerate the timeline. If they do not sleep during the entire adventure, then they succeed at their quest (standard kidnapping hook). If they rest only once, then they may succeed. If they rest twice, then they fail. This will burn off a lot of their consumables and make them actually get their weapons bloody for once.

And whether they succeed or fail, they still have to fight the BBEG. muhahaha
 

I am running Shackled City, and the group is on chapter 11 of 12. Once that is over, I'm kicking off a Wilderlands campaign with Crucible of Freya. I haven't planned much past that, but I will be using DCC 11 The Dragonfiend Pact, Tomb of Abysthor, Rappan Athuk Reloded, and a bunch of homebrew stuff.
 

I've actually never ran a module before; it's always just been my own stories which I've created. Been thinking about picking somethign up though, or getting one of my players to sit in the DMs chair for once ;):p

cheers,
