Default Favorite T2K Adventure Module

There are 26 canon adventure modules, by my count, but polls are limited to 20 options, so I've omitted the later modules and anything that could be more rightly considered a sourcebook (like Howling Wilderness). You can always choose "Other", if your favorite wasn't listed.

I'm partial to Pirates of the Vistula, mainly because I ran it as a PbP for over 6 years. This included an extended episode in Warsaw, using elements of the Ruins Of... module. This epic campaign also inspired me to create my own adventure module, set in northern Poland, Rook's Gambit.

I went with Krakow, but it's really close with Black Madonna.

Both are "Here's a McGuffin that's really valuable, but you're not able to use it. Here's all the people who can use it. Go."

Pirates and Warsaw are close behind.

Pirates of the Vistula struck a cord with me because I love sailing as much as I love guns. I never acquired Gateway to The Spanish Main or I might have to change my vote.

Went with King's Ransom-T2K with a still-functioning military chain of command and supply system, but also fond of Black Madonna.

FCoK for the first among equals, love the twisted Casablanca/Maltese Falcon motif going on throughout. And I had the whole "get the girl and her love into the helicopter" scene all planned out, with special-order ILLUM mortar rounds from Wojo to confuse the MANPADS....
BUT...
Ruins of Warsaw tickled my imagination as to how to most efficiently use the time and resources to wipe out the Black Baron. Homemade McCormick reapers made from the Krolova's bicycle cargo in her machine shop? Salvaging ordnance found in the rubble, or rigging it as command-detonated IEDs, Logistics, logistics, logistics...
AND...
Allegheny Uprising called to me from its multiple sites of hidden pre-whoops goodnesses, figuring out alternate uses for all those crates of tax forms, and salvaging the silver out of those Alaskan pipeline weld x-ray negatives. Plus, it's in my backyard--nothing like rooting for the hometeam.
AND, lastly....
Gateway to the Caribbean, again, teasing my brain on how to get the A.B. Buzko's armament cargo, enlist the aid of the mamaloi to brew up some fugu-fish paralytic dart venom to quietly save the Carriacou shipwrights without getting them blown up real good, and set up a sailing-vessel mercantile trade empire!

More fun than an human being should have without a marriage license! Or a bungee cord. Or proper prophylactic protection. Or all three....

To those who have voted but didn't post in the thread, I'd really like to hear why you chose the module that you did. Please share.
