Was the first Dark Sun setting box set for first or second edition D&D?

Cool...I'm planning to buy some used Dark Sun stuff. It'll all be compatible with second edition books?

Yes, it was all written for 2nd edition.

There are a few sites out there that allow you to purchase all the Dark Sun PDFs, if you'd like. Poke around here or do a google search and I'm sure you'll find 'em.

Thanks, Jon and Pork Chops!

I kept looking at the cover pics of old modules on the internet, and I couldn't see the small print well enough to tell whether it was first or second ed.

I personally recommend moving to 3.5e, and checking out the information on athas.org, as well as the books from 2e. athas.org is converting the rules & mechanics for Dark Sun into 3.5e

And I recommend staying in 2e and if you want, change any rule as you wish.

I recomend converting everything to d20 Furry and using plush instead of miniatures ;)

Borys can then be the duddly cutsie-wootsie that he was always meant to be :inlove:

You realize that you've just damned your soul for all eternity for even thinking that up, right??

Hmmmm...if you do that, then we can finally have an answer to that eternal question: Who would win in a fight...Borys or HamaEstra...

Hmm, does that mean in your game, if you kill a monster, you get to eat the miniature? That'd actually be kinda cool....

Even better, add in a dose of D20 Mecha and stir well.

"Welcome to Athas, where the most precious resources are water and gasoline."

"Beware! That motorcycles powered by defiling magic!"



Or even better, combine Dark Sun with Dragonball Z:D

"Uh oh, Rajaats about to do his "Human Extinction Attack!"

Hamanu & Nibenay -"Fusion-ha!"

With the jello, instead of sugar, I use crack!

See? Gaming can be addictive! The first game's free, of course...

And instead of water, use Vodak, right? ;)

Heh...I guess the real question then becomes "who is in more danger? The caracters facing that sorcerer-king, or the players ODing on the props..."

Btw, letme guess...every hour of gaming leads to one week in detox, right? ;) The overnight sessions must be something...:D

That hurts, Jon: all of my players are under 13.
