This is the first time in the nearly 30-year history of the Dungeons and Dragons game that this type of boxed set has been available. The slipcase will feature original art. Table of Contents:

Who is This For?
If you are buying a Dungeons and Dragons product for a loved one, you might consider giving this if:
1.) He is a collector and would like a pristine set of core rule books in an attractive slip case. Note: These are not the ultra-attractive designed-to-be-collectible copies of the core rules (Called the Deluxe Edition). Individually they’re the exact same copies one purchases individually for game playing.
2.) She is new to the game but has already shown an interest in taking a turn as a Dungeon Master (DM). Very creative people, especially naturally born storytellers tend to want to try their hand a DMing sooner or later.
3.) He has expressed an interest in the game but has no group yet. This person may wish to form a group with his friends and often gets picked to be the DM — so having a copy of Dungeon Master’s Guide, and Monster Manual is critical.
4.) She’s played Dungeons and Dragons 3rd edition and is ready to try the 3.5 edition. The biggest advantage of the 3.5 edition, is that Wizards of the Coast integrated several years of criticism, rules fixes, changes, additions and favorite house rules from the 3rd edition into the 3.5 edition and balanced the game better.
Do not buy this if:
1.) He is absolutely new to the game and has a group to play with. Pick up just the Player’s Handbook and dice. If he continues to play over a period of time, then pick up more Dungeons and Dragons items.
2.) She has played Dungeons and Dragons for years and seems to be bored with it. Pick up a new role-playing game to rekindle her interest.
3.) If he is set on playing Dungeons and Dragons 4th edition. It would be better to pick up the 4th edition set, since it is currently the only edition being actively supported by Wizards of the Coast.
