Yeah, but no.

Just look at how the accounts of nazi generals shaped the way historians understood the war of Nazi Germany against the Soviet Union. All the myths, like the clean Wehrmacht or that the soviets just overwhelmed the nazis with superior numbers and no tactic, strategy or logistics at all was coined, popularized and published by nazi generals. And these guys are one of the most famous losers in history.

The first time I was a DM for DnD I wrote my own campaign. Everybody had a good time. But I realised that the dungeons I design are really basic. So I thought that the offical moduls could be better in that aspect.
