| #1Style75Apr 26, 2010 18:34:35 | I was thinking back fondly to my original Redbox and the pure amazement I felt when I picked up those dice for the first time (20 sides! holy $h!7) . Does anyone know if the new Redbox will contain dice? and crayons? |
| #2Silver_BlazeApr 26, 2010 19:35:34 | 32-page book for players, with rules for character creation and a solo adventure 64-page book for Dungeon Masters, with the rules of the game, advice on how to run the game, and adventure content 2 sheets of die-cut tokens for characters and monsters Cardstock character sheets and power cards Double-sided dungeon map 6 polyhedral dice It indeed does come with dice (no d% which is unneeded anyway). I wonder what the solo adventure would consist of. |
| #3Nai_CalusApr 26, 2010 22:15:04 | My dearest wish for it: A version of the old Red Box one in which you can prevent Aleena from dying if you're smart/lucky. Fraking Bargle. |

Let it go, dude. She got herself magic missiled. She ain't comin' back. ![]() Think of it this way... it's better than getting devoured by an owlbear. |
| #5zyzyx1701dApr 27, 2010 0:38:56 | At least nowadays Bargle would have to roll an attack roll! |
| #6mboss77Apr 28, 2010 10:27:32 | I wonder how different the Dungeon Master book in the Red Box will be from the DM Booklet from the quick start rules. I used that book quite a bit at the table when we were getting started for quick rules reference. Because of the size it was better for "in-game" reference than my DMG. |
| #7joni-sanApr 30, 2010 18:57:18 | I wonder: Will Aleena and Bargle be making a comeback in the New Redbox? |
| #8sfdragonApr 30, 2010 20:03:44 | who was Aleena??? |
| #9Silver_BlazeApr 30, 2010 22:22:58 | I wonder: Will Aleena and Bargle be making a comeback in the New Redbox? I am wondering that as well. A remake of that adventure could easily be the solo adventure. |
| #10AlasMay 01, 2010 13:52:16 | I still have the d12 from my old Red Box, and a chunk of the crayon. I'm silly excited about a new box. |
| #11_Mithreinmaethor_May 01, 2010 20:09:44 | Yes the dice must be unpainted and a white crayon must be provided for ultimate enjoyment. |
| #12Style75May 03, 2010 14:13:34 | I too still have a piece of the crayon! I think we should petition WoTC to put unpainted dice and a crayon in the new RedBox. Old School to the max. |
| #13LordArchaonMay 04, 2010 2:55:16 | I too still have a piece of the crayon! I think we should petition WoTC to put unpainted dice and a crayon in the new RedBox. Old School to the max. Oooohhh!! Why didn't I get those in my red box?? Or maybe I was too young and I lost everything, but it would strike me as odd. Maybe the contents varied by country. Plus, there have been two or more editions of the same "around the 80s" red boxes, right? However, I think I'll buy the new red box, just for old times' sake ![]() ... Good job marketing that, WotC! |
