So find some friends and give it all a try, you'll be suprised at how much your friends will enjoy it!
Dungeons and Dragons Basic Game (v4.0)
Similar content to above, but follows the rule set of version 4.0. The average price is cheaper, around £8-£10. I'm not too knowledgeable on v4.0 but it is the latest version and still follows the foundations of Dungeons and Dragons. Doesn't contain miniatures like the other game but has cardboard cut outs, the dice, rules and so on to get you started. I can't seem to find the board game on Amazon, but I'll keep my eyes peeled!Dungeons and Dragons Basic Game (v3.5)
This boardgame contains miniatures, tiles (to place the miniatures on), dice (d20, d12, d10, d8 and d4) and various booklets and sheets to explain how to play the game. Can easily play it straight out of the box without any preparation at all. Follows the rule set of version 3.5. After playing the boardgame, you maybe wandering where to go next. The next step would be to buy the Dungeons and Dragons books to start crafting your own adventures. Click on Dungeons and Dragons Manuals to continue your journey!
