[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9318101, member: 2209"] Yeah, the 1e DMG is for advanced while most of the intro modules are in the B series for basic. But even B2 is set up for possible faction play with multiple different groups of humanoids. I don't remember a lot of advice in B2 but it seems inherent in the setup. Also B/X has the whole reaction roll thing going on so that hostilities are often possible but not a default always thing RAW. Mostly that was left up to the DM to free form though is my recollection of it. I remember some discussion of factions and responses in the AD&D Temple of Elemental Evil and I certainly ran it that way in the 80s as young teen as the AD&D party I was running moved on from starting in B1 to multiple assaults on the Moathouse and the New Master. AD&D had a bunch of competition modules that set things up to be fairly linear and static to provide similar challenges to wide varieties of groups running under different DMs at a tournament and allow judging and competitive ranking based on module performance.
