I love pre-published adventures. I do. Now, a published adventure can be a lot of things at once. First, they can be a crutch. The more rigidly you follow a plot, the less players feel like they're in control. Many published adventures can be rail-roady simply because they can't gauge or measure player response in the same way that a natural GM with intimate player knowledge can. Published adventures often focus on balance over set-pieces, on formula over randomness. I'd be willing to bet that there are more 'dungeon crawl' published modules out there than there are every other genre adventure combined. That said, they have benefits that in my opinion far outweigh the costs. Stories are the reason lots of us even play RPGs - I know it's the reason that I play a lot of video games. While I think most GMs can cobble together a decent enough story, a published adventure module can generally ahve a certain je ne sais quoi, an intangible quality of writing that has an even greater coherence than I could have anticipated. In games that require lots of thinking and problem-solving, especially GUMSHOE or investigative games, a module has an intricate web of events all planned out and waiting for the GM to use. This is to say nothing of the convenience; even if I did trust myself as good a writer as the venerable Robin D. Laws, I simply don't have the drive to cobble together something that has such grace. Since I've gotten on a tangent for the illustrious GUMSHOE system, I figure I'd point you guys (in case you didn't already know) to Pelgrane Press's "Ashen Stars" RPG. http://www.pelgranepress.com/?cat=66 It's a sort of gritty space opera investigative game, which in some ways can fit quite well into the EP setting. It's set after a disastrous war against an unknown enemy that the galaxy's races can hardly comprehend. The whole setting oozes with mystery. There are few different adventures that have been published, all of which work great in EPs setting. I know that I generally find myself starved for content to throw at my intrepid transhuman players. "Tartarus" http://www.pelgranepress.com/?p=8671 is basically the 1986 classic "Aliens" with a little more weird. Survey team goes missing on an incredibly hostile world, hijinks ensue. A company sends your team down to the planet to figure out what happened and makes contact with a hyper-adaptive and transformative virus that might be an acceptable 'first sighting' of the Exsurgent virus for players. "Terra Nova" http://www.pelgranepress.com/?p=5486 is another single-adventure volume that really reminded me of classics like "Dead Space" or "System Shock II." I was always trying to find a way to get my players onto a gigantic spaceship for them to explore - and "Terra Nova" was the perfect excuse. A gigantic cruise liner filled with the hyper-elite? Check. Nanofabricators gone awry? Check. The science in this one is a little softer, though, so if you have a particularly fastidious player base like I do you might get a few catcalls of "that wouldn't work!" "Dead Rock Seven" http://www.pelgranepress.com/?p=5441 is actually 4 adventures in one, with a miniature story arc about a cult obsessed with paralell universes to boot. (Again, a bit of a stretch for Eclipse Phase.) The first adventure takes place on a 'pleasure planet' which practically screams 'Venusian Aerostat' and features a variety of enemies; heavily augmented human criminals, police, cultists, and even a few enemies that could be considered 'exhumans'. The other adventures weren't quite as big a slam dunk; there's an adventure involving exploring an old mining colony (since I assume most mines in EP are either automated or otherwise uninhabited, it took some finagling to feel 'right'). There's another that features a tyrannical government and the politics therein, and the last one is just really kooky (interstellar cook-off? Assassin nuns? Evil extradimensional beings? A desperate fight on the other side of a wormhole?) that really jumps the shark. Still, as I said - I love published adventures, and these were the best ones I've found to adapt to my favorite RPG, "Eclipse Phase." Do you have any others that might fit well into our beloved transhuman RPG?
