[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 2958213, member: 11"] It would be hard for me to break it up by percentage b/c I am notorius for tearing apart adventures and making Frankenstienian monstrousites out of them - I'll use just a map from one, or a group of NPCs from another - I rewrite and rework a lot of often the adventure ends up resembling the source only in the most rudimentary way. And whenever I am writing an adventure from scratch I hunt through my Dungeons looking for maps and stuff that fit - or sometimes I have an adventure I am using nearly directly but I re-draw the maps to fit the locale in my setting. Let's check my second to last long-lasting campaign: The Labyrinth of Issek (homebrew) The Lizardman Aside (homebrew) The Plague Ship (homebrew) N1 - Against the Cult of the Reptile God (as close as direct to the source as I get) Song of the Fens (from Dungeon) A Wizard's Fate (from Dungeon) C3 - The Lost Island of Castanamir (rewritten from memory as I did not have the module with me at the time) Light of Lost Souls (from Dungeon) L1 - The Secret of Bone Hill (as close as direct to the source as I get) UK4 - When a Star Falls. . . (as close as direct to the source as I get) The Road to Marrock (homebrew) The Ulrich Monastery (from Dungeon) A1 - Slave Pits of the Undercity (about 60% re-written) The Petrifying Priestess (from Dungeon) A3 - Assault on the Aerie of the Slavelords (about 90% re-written) Tallow's Deep (from Dungeon) Neutral Ground (homebrew) Stepping Stones (from Dungeon) School of Nekros (from Dungeon - renamed "River of the Dead" - about 50% rewritten) The Quest & The Curse (from Dungeon - about 60% re-written) A Wrastle w/ Betrum (from Dungeon - bumped three of four levels) C1 - The Hidden Shrine of the Tamoachan (about 30% re-written) So someone do the math - what does that work out to. . . ;) [/QUOTE]
