Title: Looking for low-level ‘Old-School’ dungeon recommendation
Post by: Kord's Boon on August 01, 2013, 09:18:31 AM
As the title says, levels 2-3

This is for a D&D Next/5e play-test and I want to supplement my designs with something pre-build (which I can "update" as necessary).

The only restraint that concerns me is the party will have PC(s) with the innate ability to hover and fly.

The first 3 (http://tenfootpole.org/ironspike/?p=669) levels of the Darkness Beneath (http://tenfootpole.org/ironspike/?p=673) from Fight On! magazine are EXCELLENT!

Ironwood Gorge (http://tenfootpole.org/ironspike/?p=806) is great, and it will let them hover without it being a gamechanger, I think.



My Favs, in general: http://tenfootpole.org/ironspike/?page_id=844

The BD&D scenario Horror on the Hill always seemed to me to be one of the better low level dungeon crawl modules.

I found uk2 the sentinel to be very DM friendly and easy to run, and setting neutral where it can be dumped into any settimg

It's good but I am not sure I would consider it particularly dungeoncrawly. There is one medium sized dungeon, but the other two are small and just two rooms respectively. The sequel "The Gauntlet" has a larger dungeon in it.

Caverns of Thracia is "old school" partly in that some things will be way too tough for characters of that level to overcome, but there's plenty else for them to deal with.
