Well, you could try performing a search for similar topics here at Candlekeep. As this subject has come up before.

Ah yes, I did a search. Unfortunately I was unable to find reference to the 5 missing pdfs other than they were never released. I wonder how the adventure ever ended with the PCs stuck with no sequels? Strange.

I guess a better question would be is it possible to run the campaign with the missing chapters or no?

I can help a little on this, but only in reguards with two of the modules.

I know for a fact that LRG4 was never produced, and never released in any format. It's essentially vaporware. Apparetly there was a problem with one or more of the illustrations and the accompanying copywrite issues could not be resolved. That makes LRG3 almost useless without writing your own version of LRG4, which is a genuine pity since it's really an interesting module.

LRG23 was also never played/released. Rumor has it that copies of the round zero version of the module (the playtest copy in non-RPGA terms) do exist, but I've tried fairly hard to find one and can't. Having this one missing is very frustrating, because the transition from LRG22 to LRG24 assumes you've played the absent middle module. Again, a reasonably good DM can take modules 22 and 24 and write her own middle section, but that takes time and energy that I lack.

I have no information about the other three. I'm missing them from my collection and haven't ben able to get my greedy hands on them - but that doesn't mean that they don't exist.

As for the question asked by Razz, yes, it would be possible for a moderatly experienced DM to run a campaign and fill in the missing pieces. LRG4 will be the hardest to re-create, because non of the later modules give the slightest hint what is supposed to happen in the Closter, or what information and items the players are supposed to take away from it. It's almost a dead end, but that's simply unsatisfactory in my eyes.

If you try to write up the missing pieces Razz, let me know. I have some ideas of my own, and would be happy to share.

*** Casts 'Raise Scroll' ***

Has anyone ever done an over-all map of this adventure path? I can't seem to find out much about it, but from what I have been able to obtain, it seems that few of the locales fall-out within the scope of a project I am working on.

Thanks for any help you can possibly give me.

Markustay, WotC wrote up most of the campaign as an "in character" piece of fiction spread over many months. Would that help you?

Thanks for the help guys.

In think that's the main site I found the resources on. The project I was working on at that time is done now, but I was able to glean one valuable resource from the story-arc for the region I was mapping (a citadel in the Sword Mountains). Most of the rest of the adventure-path was too far away to be applicable. Still, I have to keep it in mind if I ever do a detailed map of Delimbiyr Vale.

My question is how did this series ever expand beyond LGR4 when it was never released? Did people really have to fill in the blanks or was there someone that knew what those blanks were that needed to be filled? And this did not happen once, but 4 more times (two consecutively in fact)!

How and why is what I'd like to know. It feels as if there is no point ever playing through this with 4 modules missing entirely.

From what little I was able to dig-up (and I could be entirely wrong because the sources are just hearsay), there was some copyright issues with some things, and it got messy, and WotC just decided to walk away from it unfinished. AFAIK, those issues had to do with artwork, which makes it even stranger, since you would think they could have just released them sans illustrations.

But whatever, obviously something went awry and they didn't want to bother. I did note at least one continuity gaff as well, so there may have been more of those, and that may have (in part) also contributed to the adventure-path's abandonment.

This series does frustrate me as well. Has anyone tried contacting the authors of the series directly? I did that with Creighton Broadhurst for a specific module from Living Greyhawk and he sent me both versions. I have every one except for the unreleased, but there has to be a draft in possession of someone.

Now plugging away on mass conversion to 5e, as well as my imprint J. Halk Games.

The above link should take you to the Green regent Archive. I still haven't located the old adventures...I moved one too many times.

I hope Candlekeep continues to be the friendly forum of fellow Realms-lovers that it has always been, as we all go through this together. If you don’t want to move to the “new” Realms, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with either you or the “old” Realms. Goodness knows Candlekeep, and the hearts of its scribes, are both big enough to accommodate both. If we want them to be.

There are brief synopses of each module on the wiki, including what little can be gleaned about the ones that were never published from the sparse details given in the other modules.

http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Extermination

The campaign starts at the above link and each module is posted in order of release. The in-universe resources at the link Bakra posted are far more detailed but don't mention the unpublished modules at all.

The LGR campaign has been a pet project of mine for a couple of years now. I don't think there's much available info I don't have without talking directly to the authors. If there are specifics you are having trouble with then please feel free to either drop me a PM or continue on in this thread.

I figured as much. Inviting that sort of thing is bad juujuu. Still, as far as the LGR modules go... WotC never sold them as a product and they're completely out of print. I'm not sure if it is possible to find them, legally or illicitly.

They were available on their site for awhile, IIRC.

Not that any of their 'freebies' are there anymore.

Anyhow, I think that allows just a tiny bit more wiggle-room, since they were never a 'for sale' product (not that I am condoning illegal, behavior, mind you).

I don't recall the modules being available from the WotC site... If they were on their site, they were tucked away in some obscure corner that I never saw.

And I know I'm in the minority, but I'm still not convinced that the free material actually was removed from the WotC site. They've rearranged their site countless times, and I know for a fact there is still content from 2000ish up on the site, but not linked anywhere... I suspect the files got moved, and that we've just not figured out the new URLs.

A couple of them can usually be found on eBay. They were never available on WotC's site, though plot synopses were written for most of them.

It must have been the synopsis' that I was thinking of then.

How about a map? I recall finding a map that went with them, but it isn't in any of the modules - could that also be what I am thinking of (a bunch of 'aids' to play through the series, but not the series itself)?

The storyline is pretty disjointed, the lore fuzzy an ill-researched, and then there are the missing modules... still, it has a few good parts that I liked despite the continuity problems (like the shaved-head Red Wizard kid - something that shouldn't exist, but does, and thats kinda cool).

This was the only map I ever saw. Delineating the territorial border between the eastern marches of Loudwater's territory and Zhentarim territory.

I liked the one with the disease that made orcs explode and just when the cure is determined, a Zhent caravan rolls in selling the ingredients to make said cure.

Was curing orcs the point of the module? Because I gotta say, most of my own characters would be more inclined to let that disease run its course.

Or did they make particularly big explosions, necessitating a cure?

Exploding orcs seems like something from Warhammer 40k. Bomma boyz, or something like that.
