"Blackapple is a small, remote village on the edge of a great wood. Nearby lies the Brugh ("broo"), an earthen mound wherein is confined a cruel elf lord who once ruled the people of the village. He cannot leave the brugh, but is he truly no longer a threat?This adventure provides low level PCs with a good "base" town, a hub for adventures great and small. This book describes several encounters or mini-adventures around Blackapple, as well as a larger adventure that takes place in the Brugh itself."
A while back we bought 'The Blackapple Brugh' by By Kyle Hettinger & Vasily Ermolaev was bought through Amazon & we're planning on running it with Castles & Crusades.

This is a solidly done adventure! 'The Blackapple Brugh' has all of the ingrediants of a solidly written OSR adventures! Many adventure preport to give the PC's a base of operations? This one actually does with some well written NPC's.
The Blackapple Brugh does an incredible job of describing itself contents & its moving parts. Kyle Hettinger writing & Vasily Ermolaev's artwork bring the heat with their writing painting a fairy tale village & solidly drawn upon NPC's that ooze to be run!
