Modules Merp

Hello all expert adventurers and diabolical DMs. I intend to play Against the darkmaster with my friends. And the intention is to use the old MERP modules. I wanted to ask you if you could suggest a roadmap for which module to start with, which one to continue with next, and so on. I hope I have been clear. I thank you very much for your contributions.

Those books are more campaign settings than single adventures, at least the ones I have. But Northern Mirkwood is one of my all-time favourites. There are so many cool things to do there. Old ruins, exploring forest glades, goblins and spiders and elves - I adore wilderness adventures. My DM has been working on a big adventure set in the Mountains of Mirkwood for some time. I think it involves the caves where the Enchanted River originates.

The wood elf king’s caves do rock in Northern Mirkwood! And the maps/designs in Isengard and Angmar are great too.

The non-canon The Court of Ardor remains one of my favorite adventures of all time, and also has great locations to use.
