Do any low level 2nd/3rd one shot adventures exist for new players? I'm going to DM an adventure for some new players, and im looking to hook them with a well written fun one shot that kind of encapsulates D&D and roleplaying for them. Any suggestions before I go to the comic store?

Isn't ToEE kind of a bog-standard dungeon crawl? Anyone here start with Hommlet, but then make the Moathouse related to another adventure like Caves of Chaos or something?

The Hommlet module is also like 20 pages or something, it seems pretty directionless. Scanning over it, I'm not sure how you could push the players to go into the Moathouse. I have been working all weekend though, so maybe I missed something important.

E: Follow-up question: any visually nice, simplistic ad&d character sheets? I love the ones that make you list # of siblings and birth rank and henchmen, but I'm looking for something visually cool and straightforward. Any recommendations?

Maze of the Blue Medusa is back in hardcover. Check out the review by Questing Beast, he goes into just what a high quality book it is - not content, the actual make of the physical object is book porn. I... think I have to.

In case anyone's interested in this sort of poo poo, there's been a review of Maze recently that, uh, sparked a lot of discussion about it:

I'm in a weird position where I both genuinely like Zak S (and the other sometimes-maligned-for-being-hipster-OSR Patrick Stuart, Scrap Princess, James Raggi) and like him as an eternal source of schadenfreude. It really is the best.
