[Dragonblade]

No 4e DM's screen?? OR will that be part of the character sheets package?

 

[teitan]

Aug is the FR Campaign Guide, the Sept. with the Character Guide. October will see ALL the core rule books get the deluxe treatment and then November I believe I recall being either the Manual of the Planes or Draconomicon and December is one of those two.

 

[Alisair Longreach]

Scott Rouse, I think, mentioned that the next D&D Basic Game set will be out in October or November.

I thought the Gargantuan Orcus was canceled. Or was that just the version that was showcased at GenCon 2007?

No 4e DM's screen?? OR will that be part of the character sheets package?

The DM Screen is it's own release and is out in July.

 

[Nyaricus]

What do the Deluxe versions of the core rulebooks entail - leatherbound ala 3e or is there anything bonus about them (from what we know)?

cheers,

[zoroaster100]

Maybe the Deluxe version of the PHB will be edited! Sorry, couldn't help myself. No, seriously, I was wondering myself what could possibly make it deluxe.

 

[coyote6]

Probably the usual: leather cover, better (?) binding, a ribbon bookmark, etc.

 

[Belorin]

Now according to Amazon.com (US) the core rule books are as follows;
PHB 320pgs $23.07
MM 288pgs $23.07
DMG 224pgs $29.95

What's wrong with this picture?
