<p>The Dragon’s Demand - 1-6

Plunder & Peril - 4-6

<p>I can't speak to ALL of these but I have purchased and at least read most of them. If I were putting together a 1-12 campaign I would probably go with this:</p>
<p>This is a great campaign starter but I didn't care for it's sequels that much:
<br />
1 Crypt of the Everflame</p>
<p>These I purchased during the last golem sale and put together in this order as a campaign:
<br />
2 Fangwood Keep
<br />
3 Feast of Ravenmoor
<br />
4 Midnight Mirror
<br />
5 Carrion Hill
<br />
6 From Shore to Sea
<br />
7 Realm of the Fellnight Queen
<br />
8 No Response from Deepmar
<br />
9 Doom Comes to Dustpawn</p>
<p>After this your options become kind of limited. I'm not terribly familiar with them but they are the only modules that fall in your level range.
<br />
10 Curse of the Riven Sky
<br />
11 Ruby Phoenix Tournament
<br />
12 Academy of Secrets</p>
<p>Alternatively you could kick off a campaign with The Dragon's Demand, which is great and will bring a normal party to 6th level. In PFS however, it is only worth 12XP so the levels don't really match up.</p>This is a list of all of the published modules with level and as far as I know all but the few newest are PFS legal.

[Stoneheart Valley, Bard's Gate, Rappan Athuk, Slumbering Tsar]Joshua Goudreau (alias of EATERoftheDEAD)https://paizo.com/threads/rzs2sq50?Mega-Frog-God-Campaign-Advice-and-Discussion#12015-08-18T19:32:36Z2015-08-01T03:20:43Z<p>So let me first give a bit of context and explanation to what I mean in my topic.</p>
<p>Also, this thread will have spoilers so consider yourself warned.</p>
<p>I have now in my grubby, little nerd mits hard copies of <i>Stoneheart Valley, Rappan Athuk</i>, and <i>Slumbering Tsar</i>. (Parenthetical Aside: Holy eff are those books massive. I mean seriously, RA and ST are beasts.) I decided to add these to a borrowed copy of <i>Bard's Gate</i> for an epic campaign and, just because the I am a sadist, I added <i>Glades of Death</i> at the last minute (PF updates of these books, especially BG would be fantastic).</p>
<p>I adapted this mega campaign to my homebrew world, mostly so I could ignore the geography explained in the books and give my players something familiar. The changes mostly just boil down to a couple of name changes and new overland maps rearranging where things are located to fit my new geography. I then went with a slow XP progression and cut my player's loose.</p>
<p>If anyone else is considering a mega campaign such as this I'm happy to discuss the details of such a game. Also, I would love to pick the brains of anyone else who has tied these products together. That's the point here. :D</p>
<p>——</p>
<p>So, first question/advice request. My party has cruised through <i> Wizard's Amulet</i> and are nearly done dealing with the orc threat in <i>Crucible of Freya</i>. I don't know if they are going to head for the shrines next or explore Bard's Gate for a bit. They may get a wild fancy and head down to Rappan Athuk for some swift death, er, I mean adventure... yeah, adventure...</p>
<p>I'm curious what folks have done for plot hooks or delve quests etc. SVs Crucible section has a great part with tons of little adventures to incorporate the presented material and I have been making good use of it. The Abysthor section however, only has a couple paragraphs saying GMs should whip some stuff like that up and then just kind of moves on. RA is kind of the same from what I remember when I read it for a campaign a few years ago (I haven't had the opportunity yet to dive into the tome in earnest). I can go through and come up with things but I decided to tap the collective and see what trickles out.</p>
<p>So what have folks used as plot hooks and quests in these books?</p>So let me first give a bit of context and explanation to what I mean in my topic.

<p>There are several lists of series in these that I feel should be rated based on their component parts.

To rectify this, I am also including a list of all the AP adventures, some merely okay with most quite good.</p>

The magazine has had several eras and milestones with different editions, publishers, and editors (most notably here being it's time under the stewardship of Paizo). I know this forum has started to die, but I am hoping for some great input because the internet really needs a good list of the creme de la creme of <i>Dungeon</i>.</p>
<p>In issue #116 a list of the top 10 <i>Dungeon</i> adventures was compiled but the magazine put out more than a hundred issues following that list. The list presented the following adventures as the top 10 (here listed by issue number):</p>
<p>1: Into the Fire (AD&D)
<br />
33: Siege of Kratys Freehold (AD&D 2E)
<br />
37/138: The Mud Sorcerer’s Tomb (AD&D 2E)
<br />
42: The Lady of the Mists (AD&D 2E)
<br />
70: Kingdom of Ghouls (AD&D 2E)
<br />
73: Eye of Myrkul, Mere of Dead Men part 5 (AD&D 2E)
<br />
75: The Forgotten Man (AD&D 2E)
<br />
84: The Harrowing (D&D 3E)
<br />
97: Life’s Bazaar, Shackled City part 1 (D&D 3E)
<br />
100: The Lich-Queen’s Beloved (D&D 3.5)</p>
<p>Issue #150, the last of Paizo's run, contained a countdown of the 10 best villains and locations. Including those adventures adds the following (again listed by issue order with repeats from above removed):</p>
<p>10: Threshold of Evil (AD&D)
<br />
18: Chadranther’s Bane (AD&D 2E)
<br />
19: House of Cards (AD&D 2E)
<br />
95: Porphyry House Horror (D&D 3E)
<br />
100: Beast of Burden (D&D 3.5)
<br />
111: Lords of Oblivion, Shackled City part 7 (D&D 3.5)
<br />
112: Maure Castle (D&D 3.5)
<br />
121: The Styes (D&D 3.5)
<br />
124: The Whispering Cairn, Age of Worms part 1 (D&D 3.5)
<br />
131: The Prince of Redhand, Age of Worms part 8 (D&D 3.5)
<br />
134: Into the Wormcrawl Fissure, Age of Worms part 11 (D&D 3.5)
<br />
135: Dawn of a New Age, Age of Worms part 12 (D&D 3.5)
<br />
139: There is No Honor, Savage Tide part 1 (D&D 3.5)</p>
<p>Issue #200 also includes a list of notable adventures along with it's index but there are too many to list easily here.</p>
<p>So what I am proposing is a fan-created 'Best Of' list. I am thinking of organizing the list based on 'era' which will roughly accompany the edition changes with #1-#81 the AD&D and AD&D 2E era, #82-#154 being the 3E and 3.5 era, and most recently, #155-#221 the 4E era with a top ten for each. I may organize differently based on what sort of response I get; such as by level or somesuch. </p>
<p>There are, as of last count, 221 issues of <i>Dungeon Magazine</i> to choose from. So, what are some of your favorites?</p>With 5th Edition just dawning it seemed like a good time to take a look back at the history of Dungeon Magazine. The magazine has had several eras and milestones with different editions, publishers, and editors (most notably here being it's time under the stewardship of Paizo). I know this forum has started to die, but I am hoping for some great input because the internet really needs a good list of the creme de la creme of Dungeon.

<p>As an outdoorsy type it constantly amazes me how little people understand about the dangers of the woods.

<p>They're not super pretty but they get across what it's like to be out and about in the heat and humidity. Here in Maine the heat is not what makes the summers dangerous, it's the humidity.

<p>These rules are used with a spreadsheet I made detailing the weather conditions day by day. They won't work so well if you are rolling weather randomly using the tables in the book.

If you look at it like a toolbox to build your own adventures and delves and whole campaigns it is an amazing resource.

It doesn't look like it will happen. Pathfinder Battles: Iron Gods, how likely is it?

I followed the playtest pretty closely and I enjoyed the direction it was going. As much as I love Pathfinder it is a rules-heavy system and I tend to prefer a more rules-light system so having that option with D&D is really nice. </p>
<p>I plan on diving in and giving it a shot. If it turns out to play as light as I hope it does I'll be a happy gamer. I get to have my fantasy RPGs any way I like it. :D</p>I like the look of it and I'm eager to give it a try. I followed the playtest pretty closely and I enjoyed the direction it was going.
