This is part two of an index of Knockspell and Fight On! magazine adventures. The first part was Knockspell, and Fight On! follows here below.

Thanks for posting this.
My players have made several forays into Fight On's "Darkness Beneath" mega-dungeon. They have ventured into the Upper Caves (FO! #2) and the Warrens of the Troglodytes (FO! #5). We've had a blast in these dungeons. For a tast of one of the sessions see here: http://odd74.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fanzine&action=display&thread=2078
As the designer of Nature's Nasty Node, let me say that it is meant to be a simple Wilderness Encounter/Mini-Adventure rather than a Dungeon Crawl (calithena emailed me at the last minute and said he needed a wilderness adventure for the issue)
#4 also has The Spring Temple of Ai by yours truly. :) It was an adventure-heavy issue.
@Melan: Sorry about the oversight! Updated.
Here's a list of the adventures in Fight On! #3
"Khas Fara: Village of Fear" by Jason Morningstar p.28

Third level of a megadungeon. 1st Place Winner of the Fight On!/Otherworld Miniatures Summer Adventure Contest.
(Note there are also three keyed locales presented in Judges Guild style:
