Does anyone know of other modules that were "canonized" by Team Greyhawk, &/or what criteria were considered before retro-fitting the module? I was most curious about the UK series, the first three which are definitely set in Greyhawk. UK4 (When a Star Falls), UK5 (Eye of the Serpent), & UK6 (All that Glitters) are written or co-written by Graeme Morris, who also wrote UK2 (The Sentinel) & UK3 (The Gauntlet), & co-wrote UK1 (Beyond the Crystal Cave). I own UK6, which features a mountain range bordered to the east by jungle & to the west by a desert called the "Ash Mire." It also features an 80 mile tunnel through the mountains, powered by magical winds, and refers to a "cataclysm" in the past. Could this have been an alternate Sueloise escape route to the Amedio Jungle? Also, what about I9 (Day of Al'Akbar)?

The inn from Tales of the Outer Planes is described in an issue of the LGJ. FR also stakes a claim for this in one of the Volo books. My old DM ran All That Glitters and there is a strong resemblance to the southwestern Flanaess in the map. It's odd that the names are different. People say that UK1 has Greyhawk references. I've never seen this one and would be interested to know what they are. Day of Al'Akbar is not set in Greyhawk. I think it's a good idea placing some of these old modules in the lands of Greyhawk. I wonder if there are any more?

I thought about Sterich when I was first planning where to put Night Below. I opted for the Yeomanry instead, though, after reading about someone else who used it there. I used Sterich a lot in another of my campaigns, though: Istivin is the base for a group of my PCs. Sterich, Geoff and the Yeomanry tend to be my favourite places for running Greyhawk adventures for some reason. Baltron's Beacon is another of the retro-fitted adventures that I've never seen. I wonder if it's any good?
