Tomb of Horrors is back!
Tomb of Horrors is back. If you’re keeping track, this will be the Tomb’s seventh incarnation, eight if you count the novel of the same name. (You would think Acererak would be getting tired of having his ass whooped and move out of the tomb and into a condo in Florida by now.)
The module, written by Gary Gygax, has managed serious staying power since its 1975 debut at Origins 1. The fabled adventure has been reprinted in all four editions of Dungeons and Dragons, its last was released as a free download at Wizards.com on Halloween 2005 to celebrate D&D’s 30th anniversary.
According to Wizards of the Coast, “This D&D adventure is designed for characters of 10th–22nd level and includes a full-color, double-sided battle map designed for use with D&D Miniatures.”
The tomb is set for release on July 20th, 2010.

I’m still waiting for my “I survived the Tomb of Horrors” bumper sticker from my gaming group. I must say, I enjoyed the module quite a bit.. it was a good time watching my party members fall to some rather unique traps.

It is a classic. They don’t seem to make modules like that anymore, just re-print the old ones.

That is a huge level range! That might almost be worth picking up with my DnD Insider account so I can give the new edition a whirl.

I just saw an early copy at my local game store, it is a very well put together, hardback book. I was impressed.
