Now that I have both the SJG volume of TFT adventures and the '5 perilous journeys' set, I have to say I prefer the separate-module format of the latter. It reminds me a bit of the original D&D pastel modules. It's handier at the table, gives you a format for presenting cover art with each adventure, and if you are clever you can use those inside covers for maps. (the pastel module tradition of making the cover a detached map can't be beat). I think it is possible that SJG will present their next adventure modules in the same hard-bound format as the first, both because it is what they did before and because I suspect the printing and binding costs might be less. But I would like to see them follow in the 'perilous journeys' footsteps! What do you think?
