Boxed set versus Hardcover - FIGHT!

[PaulofCthulhu]

Hardcovers are fine, but there's nothing in the current market that even comes close to the old boxed sets from TSR.

Cheers,

Well, maybe not in the English language...

I am just saying this for Mark and his Wow, just wow thread on CM. Don't tell him. Er, Mark, don't read this spoiler, please.

Looks intriguing. Is it still available?

Doesn't matter - Closest choice for me because of the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Hardcover - less likely to suffer damage, easier to store, easier to carry if you need the entire set of information.

Boxed Set - seem to include better support material like maps and the maps aren't bound into a book or easily lost once detached, components are separate - DM can have a book players another, easier to carry if you don't need the entire set.

Yes, it's still available. That's just a small sample of the material in the box. In the first picture you can see how deep it is. When full it *just* closes flush.
