Specifically, I am interested to know whether or not it is primarily an extended Battlesystem scenario such as H1 or if it is more dungeon-crawl oriented such as H2 and H4, the latter of which I found to be quite enjoyable. I absolutely loathed H1 when I bought it new in the mid eighties, which is what kept me from purchasing the remaining modules in the series. I have recently corrected this oversight with the rather expensive purchases of H2 and H4. (Even though both do have Battlesystem scenaries, they are short and, more importantly, optional, which is not the case with H1). Thanks in advance for your assistance.

It does seem to be rather scarce in the price range I was willing to pay and only after trolling ebay for a few months did I find this copy. (I did a quick check a minute ago and I could only find one H3 on Ebay for $44 with BIN and NO MAP!) This probably isn't a great bargain; perhaps some of the other Acaeum members have a better copy they are willing to sell/trade Slightly off topic, but would it be proper/acceptable (at least within this group) to make a scan/photocopy of a missing map/counters/loose sheets for someone who owned a module that was missing these items? I apologize in advance if this has been addressed in another thread, but I mention it as only for the sake of helping a fellow collector and not for commercial gain.Thanks

I read about the encounter with all the T-rexes, and just have to chuckle...It was a GREAT read, though.Just curious.

Since Munafik raised the issue of H3 being worth it, what about H1: Bloodstone Pass? I've seen these go for a fair amount on Ebay for the complete item, but as far as enjoyment/playability/nostalgia is this module worth the money?
If you actually read the intro about super high level characters (100th level!), it actually seems to make quite a lot of sense! But then you read the adventure and sense goes out of the window (or into the Abyss).

And I can't even count how many copies of the mapbooks from supermodules (T1-4, GDQ1-7, A1-4, I3-5, etc) I've made and given away over the years....there must be an elephant's graveyard for those things something in this universe....
