That said, I did wonder if there was scope for doing a "Starter" boxed set that included the hardcover core rulebook (also available separately) as one of the components. (That is, the same hardcover core rulebook as the 'main' game uses.)
Wish they'd do a Player's Kit like that for 4e. Mmm, softcover rulebooks. Mmm, dice. Not that I can't, you know, buy more dice myself, but.![]()
They did produce one, I bought it as an Xmas gift for my future brother-in-law.
