Background
A0: Danger at Darkshelf Quarry : Written by Skip Williams
Module A0, designed for levels 1-3, sets the stage for events that unfold throughout the remainder of the "A" series.
A1: Slave Pits of the Undercity: Written by David Cook
It is time to put a stop to the marauders! For years the coastal towns have been burned and looted by the forces of evil. You and your fellow adventurers have been recruited to root out and destroy the source of these raids-as hundreds of good men and women have been taken by the slavers and have never been seen or heard from again!
A2: Secret of the Slavers Stockade: : Written by Harold Johnson with Tom Moldvay
The battle against the slavers continues! You and your fellow adventurers have defeated the slavers of Highport, but you have learned of the existence of another slaver stronghold, and you have decided to continue the attack. But beware! Only the most fearless of adventurers could challenge the slavers on their own ground, and live to tell of it!
A3: Assault on the Aerie of the Slave Lords: Written by Allen Hammack
Into the Drachengrab Mountains! Hot on the trail of the marauding slavers, you and your fellow adventurers plunge deep into hostile Hills. Spurred on by your past success, you now seek the heart of the slaver conspiracy. But hurry! You must move quickly before the slavers recover from your previous forays and attack!
A4: In the Dungeons of the Slave Lords: Written by Lawrence Schick
Trapped in the dungeons of the Slave Lords! The hardy adventurers must find a way out, with only their wits and courage to help them. But can they do it before everything is destroyed by the dreaded Earth Dragon?"

I'm interested in hearing/reading play reports, even very recent ones.

[@d20play]

Jon Pintar has maps for these too! Even A0!

[@d20play]

And, holy crap is his city map for A3 great 😲

[@d20play]

hmmm, not seeing them on dmsguild. You might have to petition him to add them.

[@cbrandondingess]

I’m currently running a homebrew version of these, as they are some of my favorite 1E modules. Slave Lords just killed one of the party as a warning to stop meddling in their affairs. It’s about to get ugly!

9:00 When reading text aloud, I want to quit when you rush through it. When you slow down and develop your narrative cadence, I want to stay.

[@Classic_DM]

Thank you for this meaningful feedback. I will work on my pacing, especially on narrative sections.

It has been over a decade since I bought this and I am trying to remember - does it use the modules as they appeared in the A1-4 super module or as they appeared separately? There were some different magic items in the individuals. I remember in 1984-ish playing in them and finding the Sword of Lyons, and my character kept that for his entire adventuring career.

[@Classic_DM]

As far as I can tell it is each individual module plus the new A0.

I hated A3, at end the slave lords killed everyone, we thought that was over, death but then A4 came out and we were restored and fought naked in caves
