I'm a Source book bundle owner and I also have Curse of Strahd. While I'm considering saving up to complete the Legendary Bundle, I was wondering if people had anything like a Top 5 for Adventures they'd recommend for Top Shelf Quality Crunch? By that I mean that in rating an adventure you'd put rules and rules ajudications (as well as new content such as backgrounds, races, classes, items, and monsters) over and above the story. If the Adventure is good quality on it's own, great, but I often look to published adventures for things I can use in my own Homebrew campaigns. Much thanks in advance!
If your homebrew campaigns are based in the Forgotten Realms, Storm King's Thunder has a lot of good information about the world setting. Tales From the Yawning Portal is a collection of "modules" vs being a complete adventure, and is a great source for maps if nothing else. I've used almost all of them as inserts into my campaigns. If the "story" in the modules or monsters don't work for what I want it's easy to swap out.
Curse of strahd is crunchy if you like a gothic horror feel. I am running a tomb of annihilation, which is turning into a survival campaign, lots of planning of they are bringing into the jungle and a soft time limit too.

"Where words fail, swords prevail. Where blood is spilled, my cup is filled" -Cartaphilus
"I have found the answer to the meaning of life. You ask me what the answer is? You already know what the answer to life is. You fear it more than the strike of a viper, the ravages of disease, the ire of a lover. The answer is always death. But death is a gentle mistress with a sweet embrace, and you owe her a debt of restitution. Life is not a gift, it is a loan."
