Some weren't so great (I understand I didn't miss much by missing things like the Horde boxed set.)But I have some awesome boxed set stuff:Planescape Planes of Law/Chaos/Conflict. Packed with great concepts for adventuring sites, imaginative takes on the outer planes, maps, and concept art.Spelljammer: Okay, I've come to think Spelljammer has real weaknesses as a setting... but it was a neat little sandbox. On top of the books, it has a map of the rock of Bral (a fantasy outpost on an asteroid), and pictures and maps of all the cool little spelljammer ships.Blood War: Another Planescape boxed set that pulled back the curtains on fiends and their eternal conflict. It even had a comic on it. Honestly, though, it probably didn't deserve to be a boxed set.Kara Tur: Not a big FR fan, but I was a big 1e OA fan; it was nice fleshing out the setting.Council of Wyrms: Yeah, the product that gave us half dragons. But they were cool then. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> Still, the idea of actually playing dragons was a heady one, but I can see it wouldn't have staying power.Return to the Tomb of Horrors: Cool little boxed set that even had a reprint of the original in it. Had old style "this is what you see" booklet in it.Night Below: This adventure had 3 booklets in the set; I always found #2 really weak. But I manage to salvage much of it. I like the little event sets.Ruins of Undermountain: Still one of my favorite boxed sets and super-dungeons. I loved the huge fold out maps (though in truth, they are a little impractical... hard to hid behind your GM screen), and it also had some cool little dressing/encounter cards.Ruins of Undermountain II: Not as good as ROU, the maps aren't as nice. But it added some neat concepts to ROU.Rod of 7 Parts: Another adventure boxed set with booklets and a creature book. Probably didn't need to be a boxed set, but a fun epic adventure. Unlike RttToH, I actually got to run this one!So, what boxed sets do you have in your collection? What's cool (or not) about them?</blockquote>
