All you need to get playing.
Once you are done with your Zalgariath Gaming session and have had a taste of the D&D Multi-verse, these are the products you need to help you get playing Dungeons & Dragons in your own group at home... or at work! ;)
The prices listed here are USD, but links should take you to your local retailer. These links provide me with a small commission but cost you no more. Thanks for the Support!
The D&D Starter Set
-
Everything you need to start playing the world's greatest roleplaying game
-
Presents the newest edition of the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop roleplaying game in a way that’s easy to learn and fun to play.
-
The Original 5th Edition box for 4-6 players.
The D&D Essentials Kit
-
ALSO Everything you need to start playing the world's greatest roleplaying game.
-
This second starters kit has a new adventure, more dice, a Dungeon Masters Screen and new rules to run campaigns with only 2 players, a first for a D&D beginners kit.
The Core Rule Books
-
Once you've had a taste it's hard to stop at the entrees. D&D runs off 3 main rule books. Here is a summary of what each contains and which you need as a player or budding new Dungeon Master.
The Players Handbook (PHB)
-
Everything you need as a player to create a near-infinite variety of adventurers. The PHB contains the core races, classes, spells, equipment and rules you need to start playing a full fledged campaign.
The Dungeon Masters Guide (DMG)
-
Create epic worlds of your own design, or learn how to run an off-the-shelf campaign. Where the PHB ends, the DMG picks up, delving deeper into the rules and mechanics of the game for DMs to grow their skills with.
The Monster Manual (MM)
-
This compendium of creatures is a beautifully illustrated book full of monsters both familiar and fantastic. For DMs, it provides the ultimate inspiration guide for encounters to delight and challenge your players.
The Gift Box Book Set
-
Fallen hard for the fantasy or need a gift for that special geek? A reward for your best workers at the end of a team-building session? You can't go past this epic box set with all 3 Core Books plus a DM screen and hard case.
Dice, Merch & Further Adventures Await!
-
The one thing I miss most playing online is the sound and suspense of the dice roll deciding your fate. If you are lucky enough to play in person, the world of shiny polyhedrals is limitless. While you are it, might as well look the part too... ;) After you've completed a beginners campaign, there are loads of full length published adventures to keep you gaming for years to come.
