Any corrections, please reply. I hope to use this to sort adventures by location and time to do the perfect playing order (adventures adapted to whichever edition).

Matt James	Posted - 24 Apr 2011 : 02:40:14 quote: Originally posted by Alisttair Thanks for all the replies. I updated the original post based on these. Any more info someone might have feel free to share. Not updating with adventures after 1380?
Knightfall	Posted - 22 Apr 2011 : 20:31:18 Also, make sure you look through the Web Enhancement archive for 3.5. There are several Forgotten Realms PDF adventures available... http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/wex One of the most notable of these is the WE for Lost Empires of Faerun. Secrets of Imaskar is an adventure by Robert Wiese... http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/we/20050216a The Raurin Desert holds many secrets from ancient times, and few are bold enough to seek them out. But a chance mention of an Imaskari image on what seems to be a Mulhorandi ruin may be the key to the discovery of ancient magical secrets. Robert Wiese offers an adventure for four 6th-level characters that involves the discovery of an ancient Imaskari complex and the unique treasure it holds. So download this web enhancement now and introduce the exciting new material from Lost Empires of Faer�n into your own campaign!
Knightfall	Posted - 22 Apr 2011 : 19:50:29 Don't forget this adventure... Fang, Beak, and Claw Fang, Beak, and Claw involves an evil druid of Malar, his cronies, and a tamed owlbear. Living in a sheltered grove altered by the druid's spells, they are using the beast to harass loggers in the woods and help in their cruel hunts. Fang, Beak, and Claw is a short Dungeons & Dragons adventure for four characters of about 8th level, one of whom should be a ranger or have some skill at tracking. Download this free mini-adventure today so that you can see how your group's PCs fare against this threat! Suitable for the Forgotten Realms campaign setting or other settings. http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/Fang.pdf

The Sage	Posted - 13 Apr 2011 : 08:39:56 The adventure trilogy is set during 1369 DR. And, as I recall... Doom of Daggerdale takes place two years before in 1367 DR. We know this from its references to Dulwar Leatherworker's arrival 'a few years ago' [pg. 6] and the burning of the temple of Lathander 'eight years ago' exactly as in FRS1 The Dalelands [pg. 21], which is expressly set in 1367.
Mystic Lemur	Posted - 13 Apr 2011 : 05:51:21 According to the 3e FRCS, Randal Morn took Dagger Falls from the Zhents in 1369. Wouldn't that make The Return of Randal Morn 1369 DR? Also, I have seen Doom of Daggerdale set as early as 1366 and as late as 1368.

Diffan	Posted - 22 Sep 2010 : 16:56:04 quote: Originally posted by Alisttair Pool of Radiance:Attack on Myth Drannor Cormanthor 1372DR?? Actually, I think it occurs in 1369, The year of the Gauntlet. It was the same time the book was set and I believe the adventure is supposed to follow the novel and your role as a PC is to help the novel character obtain their goal. I bought the boxed game set with the Adventure, dice, soundtrack, and stuff. Not too bad for a Pen/Paper adventure but the game could've been better.
BEAST	Posted - 19 Sep 2010 : 20:34:23 quote: Originally posted by Alisttair The Bloodstone Quartet Bloodstone Lands Pre-ToT?? H1 TSR9122 Bloodstone Pass Hot weather and harvest time (September/Eleint?), 1357 DR (The Year of the Prince) The adventure begins just before the fall harvest, with a bandit army attempting to collect a fall tribute from the villagers of Bloodstone. H2 TSR9168 The Mines Of Bloodstone Late autumn, 1357 DR (The Year of the Prince) - 19 Ches/March, 1358 DR (The Year of Shadows) It is explained that the fall harvest is late because of demands from the war against Zhengyi (and more importantly, adventure H1), and that this adventure actually begins in late fall, just before the first snows. A royal wedding takes place in the early spring of the next year. H3 TSR9200 The Bloodstone Wars May/Mirtul, 1358 DR (The Year of Shadows) - ? It is explained in backstory text that the royal wedding occurred specifically on the first day of spring. This adventure begins in the month of May/Mirtul. H4 TSR9228 The Throne of Bloodstone Early 1359 DR (The Year of the Serpent) Both the FRCS (3E) and The Grand History of the Realms list the events of H4 as taking place in 1359 DR. The novella "If Ever They Happened Upon My Lair", by R.A. Salvatore, ends in early winter, apparently late in the year 1358 DR, with Zhengyi anticipating Gareth's army bringing a final showdown, soon. This would agree with H4 being set early in the next year: 1359 DR. FR9 TSR9267 The Bloodstone Lands Summer, 1359 DR (The Year of the Serpent) The current year is clearly stated as 1359, the Year of the Serpent, and the H1-4 modules are said to have occurred in the previous two years: 1357 (the Year of the Prince) and 1358 (the Year of the Shadows). (There is confusion in the book about "FR" vs. "DR" nomenclature for designating years, but the year names clarify the intented meaning.) It is said to be a "few months since the fall of the Witch-King" (see H4). There is one game scenario featuring the Kneebreaker halfling adventuring band which is specifically stated as taking place in the summer. quote: The Accursed Tower Icewind Dale (staring in Luskan) 13??DR TSR11337 Takes place over approximately one month, Tarsakh/April 1369 DR quote: City of the Spider Queen Dalelands 1370DR 27 Marpenoth/October 1372 DR (The Year of Wild Magic) - 25 Alturiak/February 1373 DR (The Year of Rogue Dragons) The adventure begins 60 days after Lolth falls silent, and continues for approximately 120 days thereafter. Lolth fell silent on 28 Eleasis/August 1372. This points to a time setting for COTSQ of roughly four months: 1) Uktar/November, 1372, 2) Nightal/December, 1372, 3) Hammer/January, 1373, and Alturiak/February, 1373. (A few days have to be factored in for annual inter-month holidays.)
IngoDjan	Posted - 17 Sep 2010 : 17:16:06 Thanks! Very useful!
Ralderick Hallowshaw	Posted - 17 Sep 2010 : 16:48:49 quote: City of the Spider Queen Dalelands 1370DR IIRC, City of the Spider Queen is set in 1372 DR, during the Silence of Lolth, with a possible ending in 1373, according to the timeline on page 6. Instead, Red Hand of Doom should be set in 1374 (after the Turning of the Great Cycle), but I'm not sure about this.
Thauramarth	Posted - 17 Sep 2010 : 15:06:14 quote: Originally posted by coach "The Bloodstone Quartet Bloodstone Lands Pre-ToT??" timeline of these modules is 1347-1359 The modules proper have even a shorter timeline - more like 1357-1359 (the 1347 number stems from the fact that in the Bloodstone Lands, occasionally an FR reckoning is used, rather than DR reckoning, and 1347 FR = 1357 Dr).
Wooly Rupert	Posted - 17 Sep 2010 : 11:45:31 quote: Originally posted by Matt James Monument of the Ancients (1480 DR) - Starts in the City of Phlan and takes adventurers through The Ride towards the start of the Great Glacier.

coach	Posted - 16 Sep 2010 : 23:23:03 "The Bloodstone Quartet Bloodstone Lands Pre-ToT??" timeline of these modules is 1347-1359
Thauramarth	Posted - 16 Sep 2010 : 21:36:21 Okidoki - here goes (and my dating is mostly based on listing of the events of said adventures in the Grand History of the Realms): Halls of the High King - Moonshae Isles, definitely post ToT, since it deals with the Risen Cult of Bane, who are trying to bring the old boy back after buying it during the ToT; 1359 DR. Curse of the Azure Bonds - definitely post the Azure Bonds novel - I'd set it 1358 DR, just prior to the ToT. Hordes of Dragonspear - 1363 DR. Four from Cormyr - would put them past the date of the 2E boxed set. 1369 DR. Adventures from the first Draconomicon - I'd generally set them post ToT, pre-1367 DR. Spellbound adventures: 1367 DR.
Blueblade	Posted - 16 Sep 2010 : 19:04:50 Haunted Halls of Eveninstar "early post Tot" . . . why so? Ed wrote that and set it well before, as I recall... BB
Alisttair	Posted - 16 Sep 2010 : 15:33:10 Some of the years are posted as 136?....that means I know its int he 1360s, just not the exact year. If someone has more specific info handy, please share. Thanks!
