They just posted the covers for the 2e premiums. They look incredible!
I prefer 2nd Edition AD&D. But I have played basic, 1E, 2E, 3.5, & 4E, and found all to be fun.

IF IT'S D&D, I'LL PLAY IT, NO MATTER THE EDITION.

Just roll some dice.

As far as 2nd edition premium goes: I love the green color of the premuim books but the weak 90's Easley broken hand art is lame. These should have had the 1989 art. The Art choice covers in black border are like 6 dollars and up used on amazon. Btw the premuims are only 32 bucks and change right now as a pre order there. thumbs way down on the art. Bungled that one wotc. I hope the interior is worth forking over the money..

I do agree that they should have used the 1989 versions, they were better formatted and had way better artwork (frankly, the 89 2e DMG has the best cover art of all D&D books IMO). But the premium covers, with the gold-laced logo & green leather look are pretty cool.

Amazon's got the Wood Box (that's what I'm calling it now) listed for preorder, currently at $104, with their usual preorder guarantee that if the discount increases, you will pay whatever their lowest price ends up being.

Wish is was on Amazon.ca...



And now it is on Amazon.ca!

Thanks Quasadu,

Have added the Original D&D box, to the list.  (I seem to have stopped receiving updates to this thread, so I missed your update).

Knowing I wouldn't have it in November, I have already squirreled away the cash for the OD&D premium wood box.

Nice to see it all in one place. Bit of a shame though that they did 2e so soon after 1e. It's my preferred edition between the two, but they're actually mostly redundant. Would have been better to see the Rules Cyclopedia reprinted first, as there's more difference between it and 1e than there is between 1e and 2e. 




I would absolutely love to have a new erattaed Premium D&D Rules Cyclopedia as well as a Hardbound premium edition collecting the books from the boxed set together. This is my favorite D&D rulebook and it has seen so much use over the years (and it's still active) that I would love to get the chance to have erattaed versions. So much so in fact that I would likely buy two or three copies of each just so I can have another waiting in the wings until the first one wears out.
