Are there any major differences between the original CU modules, and the new D20 versions? I've never seen the CU versions. I've bid on them on EBay a few times, but the prices went too high. Scott

There's differences in the stat-blocks, but that's about it AFAIK. I have the originals but not the d20 versions with the exception of 'The Eight Kings' so I haven't done a comparison. I'm sure Grodog would know. The d20 version of 'Eight Kings' has an extra 1500 words from what Rob has said.

Well, the Garden of the Plantmaster has a different setting around Lamash in the D20 version (not necessarily bad), and the Garden is no longer "roofed over (this I didn't like...). Other than that, the encounters and content (background changed to Kalamar instead of Kyrruhn)are the same. Three monsters have names changed, but they are still there.

Ah, yes, of course Plantmaster is different but I assumed that Scotty was referring strictly to the Maze of Zayene series.

There aren't a lot of changes in the d20 versions, and Rob didn't have time to follow-up on all of the develpment questions that I inserted into the MoZ4 manuscript ("Tell us more about the 100", "Can Zydelic be saved/restored, if so, what's he like", etc.).
From what I recall, though, NG put some content changes into the d20 versions of M1-3, some without Rob's approval, which is what started things going further downhill between them.
