I’m opening the original 1991 TSR Dark Sun Campaign Setting for AD&D 2nd Edition, including the Rules Book, Wanderer’s Journal, maps, and adventure AND MORE!
What’s in this box even SURPRISED me…
And I’m doing it on my birthday!
I’ve wanted to re-aquire the original Dark Sun boxed set for a very long time, so today I’m finally opening one and taking a look at everything that came inside this legendary AD&D 2nd Edition campaign setting.
Released by TSR in 1991, the original Dark Sun Campaign Setting introduced players to Athas, a brutal desert world shaped by powerful magic, psionics, sorcerer-kings, defilers, preservers, and some of the most distinctive ideas TSR ever put into a D&D setting.
Inside the original box are:
* The Dark Sun Rules Book
* The Wanderer’s Journal
* A Little Knowledge
* The Dungeon Master’s Book
* Player Aid Cards
* Dark Sun maps
* The original poster/accessory material
* PLUS SOME SURPRISES THAT I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW ABOUT!
I’m going through the box, looking at the books and accessories, and taking a trip back to the early 1990s when Dark Sun was one of the strangest and most ambitious settings in D&D.
If you played AD&D 2nd Edition, grew up with Dark Sun, or just love old-school Dungeons & Dragons, I’d love to hear from you.
Did you play Dark Sun when it first came out? What’s the first thing you remember about Athas?
