...collected together in a hardback format?

Probably not. I do like how they did the Umbrage Saga boxed set, though.
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.
Sounds obvious to me! -Gm Michael

Not hardback, but maybe comb-bound, so I could lay it flat. Only related modules where I might actually need to flip from one to another, like the Umbrage.

Once upon a time, yes. Lately, no. I'm not interested in running or reading traditional modules anymore. I get bored way too quickly running modules.

I totally agree. I'll add that if the modules are an actual series of modules (like the A series) and not just loosely associated to one another then I would be okay with a compilation. But I like the boxed set idea instead of a hardback. I actually like that idea very little.

I am hoping for a second boxed set of the Umbrage Saga, by the way... :)

Yes.

I like hard cover books. They hit harder.

I'm not trying to speak for Troll Lord. Stephen, Tim, or a couple of other folks would be the final word on this, but...I do seem to recall that it was said (from on high) that TLG was largely getting away from the boxed sets. That said, there was the black 10th anniversary boxed set. However, re-releases of Tainted Lands and Towers of Adventure are going to be in softcover form sans box (if I'm not mistaken). Also recall that Fields of Battle is just a softcover book, and no longer a boxed set. As for Umbrage Saga, the 14th and final part is yet to come. I heard a rumor that maybe all 14 parts might eventually be in one volume someday. Who knows? I'm all for it, but I'd bet that there won't be an Umbrage Saga 2 boxed set (covering A6-A13). If there ever is, I suspect it would be a softcover. Just speculation on my part, based on some past conversations.

There are 13? and possibly 14? Can you list the modules in this series?

Nighthood, I don't have the entire list in front of me. The series starts with A0:The Rising Knight. The most current installment is A12: The Paladin's Lament, hence 13 parts. The 14th part will be A13: Aufstrag.

I would 100% not buy it. Honestly, I think the Troll Lords reprint plenty of stuff already. I own the modules I am interested in and have no desire to purchase them again.

Yesterday, I stopped by my local game store on the way to DM to look around for inspiration. I found a ton of Troll Lords modules that they are currently reprinting on sale for low prices from the last print runs. This included "The Fantastic Adventure", the original "Death in the Treklant" module, the original World of Inzae d20 product and tons of other stuff like Gaxmoor. It was all listed super cheap but since I received reprints of most of this stuff in the C&C Kickstarter I passed on it. The modules were listed for $3.50 only.

The things I want to buy are:
1. New adventures (not compilations or reprints).
1. A. I would love these new adventures to not be hamstrung to the current product of the month.
1. B. It is very important to me that they not be tied too directly to Erde/Aihrde/Inzae. I am sure it is a wonderful setting but I don't use it.

2. Reprints I would buy include the entire line of Castle Zagyg products. In-fact I be willing to pay a premium price for these.
2. A. I would also like to potentially buy new products in this line even if by different authors.

3. Useful reference books.
3. A. This means stuff like Classic Monsters. But obviously with new monsters.
3. B. An expanded Treasure Volume with well thought out additional magic items and gear.

Good Gaming!

I would assume seeing Zagyg is very unlikely. As for reprints, I'm glad the Trolls are bringing back Death in the Treklant. Those have been OOP for a number of years, not to mention some of the adventures that were D20 only. Those products deserve to see the light of day for C&C.

I would like to see a collection of the A modules. It doesn't have to be hardback, but some kind of set, softcover, boxed. What ever would work.

Well I don't know about that. It might happen, but the problem is going to be that it's too late for some and if the pricing is not good - peeps will be turned off. Others have lost interest so more lost sales.

Hmm, would you be interested in a CZ Upper Works mint boxed set? If so, send me a PM for a price?
