Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - amazing
The new edition of D&D are amazing. I like the new art concept and the new modular system used to that new version.

I think that is the definitive rules book to my D&D group.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Much easier than ed. 3.5, but still retains the D&D fun

My only criticism is of Amazon's handling of the product.
I actually preordered this set from Amazon.com two months before the release. It was annoying that Amazon pushed my delivery date back a month and a half because they ran out of supplies. Don't pre-order on Amazon.com unless you want to take a chance and not get your item till much later.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Nice
Very nice books and case with excellent artwork and easy reading. For the old players I don't know if this edition will be a huge upgrade as it seems like it limits players who like to be very creative in their characters. Although the simplicity of the system may make up for that.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - The End of D&D
I will not send 1 dime on 4th ed. It is not a ROLL playing system, but a computer transition. Hasbro can take it and take a flying leap (the godless fatherless get(bastards)). Do not be seduced by the darkside.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 4th edition
Good bookset.
Combination of the well-known 2nd edition and 3rd edition.
The good old XP system is back. The d20 roll is simplified and used as core throughout the encounters.
