Adventure request: Lead up to Red Hand of Doom

[RealMarkP]

I have a brand new campaign unfolding in front of me. Experienced players. Clean slate. What I've always wanted to do was to run the Red Hand of Doom. Seeing that my party is only at 1st level, I'd like to build up to that massive adventure.

Would anyone suggest any adventures (published, homebrew, or otherwise), of any system (I can adapt the mechanics easily) and setting, that could be used to set the stage for RHoD?? What I'm looking or mainly is inspiration.

Thanks in advance.

I asked this same question a bit ago and Three Days to Kill - a module available online, was recommended, and I think it could work rather well.

I am currently running a PbP game starting at level 4 leading into RHoD here: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=326588
