I'm not sure if this is the right forum but i was wondering if any body have any ideas on a good campaign for a new GM to do just a basic outline on some that you have done would be very helpful thank you.

What level campaign do you wish to run? Also, what style are you interested in? Horror? Standard hack and slash? LoTR style epic? Gritty street adventure? There's a lot to choose from.

I would maybe recommend Barrow of the Forgotten King. It's a largely dungeon adventure that can be adapted to a variety of settings. It's meant to be the first in a set of three adventures - the second one has come out recently, if I recall correctly - and a large portion takes place in an underground dungeon.

You can also adapt the Sunless Citadel adventure, which is a 3.0 adventure, and a nice intro to D&D. It's more of a one-shot, but pretty good.

If you can get your hands on them, I'd second Subversive's suggestion about using the Sunless Citadel adventure module. I'd also add the entire series of 3.0 Core Modules, especially The Forge of Fury. They are easily linked together as a series, with a short break from the dungeon in The Speaker in Dreams, which provides a great example of an urban adventure design.

They should be easy enough to get still. I still see them in stores, and Amazon should have them or one of their vendors. You could try ebay if you're willing.
