Expedition to the Barrier Peaks

Ok, so, first a disclaimer.
I'm only, maybe, 23.5% serious here.

Now that that's out of the way:
I want an adventure pack based on Expedition to the Barrier Peaks.

For those of you that don't know, or possibly weren't alive yet when it was written, this little gem is a 1980 adventure module for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game written by Gary Gygax. Actually first appear in an Orgins Convention in 1976, I think.

Here's the jist:

You go to a mysterios Island, which is actually a space ship, and it's full of constructs, which are actually robots that used to serve some unsee race, which is actually aliens, that die from a virus when they landed. Once in the ship you to colletet pass cards (plot coupons?) to get into secure parts of the "cave" and deactive attack "Constructs" untill you achieve victory...which I don't actually have any knowledge of.

Why is this a good idea?

1. It was written by Gary Gygax. The man. So it's bound to be good
B: Rated as one of the top 5 D&D adventures ever, and adopted by Steven Colbert as his personal favorite.
3rd- It's got lazers. that's worth repeating... LAZERS! Which, according to Dragon Magazine, would not get stopped by the Shield Spell.

+1 to the OP for the flashback to the 'good ole days'.



The whole S series was some of tabletop's finest adventures!
