I just got into C&C.
Something I noticed in 2 modules Ive started looking thru is that they are part of a series of other modules....
Maybe C&C should put something on the cover to help indicate this.
Maybe a colour strip down the binding. Something small to indicate that these particular modules go well together. But nothing too big to scare off players because I bet most of the modules play perfectly fine as stand alone modules...
Great system.

Re: just a thought about C&C modules
The older modules (just recent old, the Crimson Pact line doesn't seem to have this) was kind of colour coded. Like the A series has blue covers, the DB series is green. Not sure about the rest as I only have these two series. They are also identified with the series identification, like I stated above A series, DB series etc. which you can easily see on the TLG store and on the covers.
Not sure about the new series. I only have the thumbnail view of the covers and those could be deceiving as they are probably not the final cover. I do notice that there are no series attached to the title, so by just ordering from the TLG store it isn't apparent what series this module is with. Even the description doesn't help you though it does refer to the module as being apart of a series. I know what that series is because I get announcements from TLG, but I can see how easily it is to be confused, even if there is something that designate what it is in the actual module, when you buy it. I can also see it becoming even more confusing as new series are added.
Maybe someone more knowledgeable about the new series can come along and help you better than me.

Re: just a thought about C&C modules
Well, the A series is for Aihrde, and DB is Dirty Bowbe (Haunted Highlands) and I is . . Independent (author) and I think some of the other letter indicators tell something about which or what series they belong to.
[Hopefully, one of our knowledgeable forum members will come along and give us the exact info. I'm thinking that someone posted a message which explains the module series numbers]

Re: just a thought about C&C modules
There is an old thread regarding this topic. However, I'm lying on the couch with just 5 hours sleep, and the kids will be earlier than I'd prefer. lol Welcome to the crusade, Keith!
Re: just a thought about C&C modules
Yeah, I am not pulling out and looking to make sure every module has followed this "rule", but I do believe they all have a letter and number designator in the upper left corner area of every cover. So we have the "A" series, the "C" series, etc... and the number shows the order in which to use them within that letter series.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Search Fu.
They may have added more codes. I have not paid attention. I do know SG, as in SG1 Engineering Dungeons is supposed to be "SIEGE Gear."
