Introductory Adventure?

[Gunbunny]

Greetings!

I play a lot of C&C via the Fantasy Grounds Virtual Table Top. They've got a semi-annual online convention coming up, and I think I'd like to run some C&C at it. Is there a good "introductory" adventure that can be ran in a few hours, or in a few hours across a couple of evenings?

Shadows of A Green Sky can easily be played in a 4-hour session. It was part of the Free RPG Day a couple of years ago, though I think it is now available for purchase. It's a pretty neat little adventure that would work well for convention play.

The two classics I see brought up all the time are:

A Lion in the Ropes

Beacon at Enon Tor

There are probably others. Many modules from other games can be easily used, too.

My preference: Tomb of Horrors. It can last 3 minutes or all night. Plus, all levels of skill can make it... as long as the PCs don't become stupid.

Beacon at Enon Tor has the benefits of being free and easily finishable in a 3-4 hour time frame. It is also incredibly bland. It lacks any of the magic and wonder that would make me want to come back for a second session.

I suggest picking up a low level DCC RPG module and converting it. One of the 0-level funnels should work well for 1st level C&C PCs, although you may need to cut down the total number of monsters in some encounters. Sailors On the Starless Sea should be workable. It's a little linear, but that's a good thing in a convention scenario.
