Building a better temple crawl
I am currently writing a 3.5 campaign called "This Belongs in a Museum!".
Basically the players will be retrieving artifacts and weapons of legacy and will encounter everything from deadly traps (The kind that kill people), greedy NPC with personal armies, to suspicious natives...
Indiana Jones is a huge inspiration but what I need right now is mechanical support... What books are good to peruse through for building a better dungeon.SpoilerA Fighter/Paladin will just hack you to bits
A Wizard/Sorcerer will just blow you up with a spell
A Rogue/Ranger/Monk will just kill you in your sleep
A Cleric/Druid will just squash you after buffing himself
A Bard will slowly twist your ethics, corrupt your morals, and make you do vile acts just for the chance to face him. When you fight him, he will have your family and friends fighting for him. For he wields the deadliest weapon against you and that is, his word against yours.

Dungeonscape perhaps? Other than that I'm not sure.

Re: Building a better temple crawl
Dungeoncraft allows you to make more varied and quirky dungeons.
Book of Challenges for înteresting traps and encounters.
Stronghold Builder's guidebook if you want to get into the materials used, pricings, etc.
DMG II has a few extra traps in it, but that's all.Bienvenue Au Kébec !!!

Re: Building a better temple crawl
Dungeonscape of course!
If you also mean traps, as Indiana Jones is famous for, perhaps you could try get your hands on Grimtooth's Traps somehow. It is a series of old books that have tons of trap ideas in them, though no mechanics, which you will have to invent yourself, meaning they can be used for just about any system and any level.Homebrewer's Signature | Avatar by Strawberries
