Yes. There was another thread a few weeks back that reminded me of this video...but I suddenly couldn't find it (probably because the original video referenced at the beginning of this thread has since been removed from youtube...)

I was enthusiastic to have found the source of it though. Still one of the awesomest D&D videos ever made! Just wanted to remind people it existed and share the love for those who weren't around to see it the first (and second) go arounds.

@GreyLord
First I'm seeing this, so appreciate the post! It's... um... gnarly...

I just like looking at all the names of people and when they were last on the site with these necro threads. Then I recall that I have been a member here longer than my children have been alive.

WoTC seems to have taken it down.

The most awesome D&D ad ever made....but I was itching for it, so hunted down the original finally...and found it....

How? Why? How?

Very cool. I'd never viewed this before - glad you relinked it.

It reminds me of my early days of AD&D at my college club, where a couple of DMs from Fine Arts would illustrate landscapes on posters and pan them while they narrated location details. One session they had an awesome Paladin on a war horse and panned a long poster landscape behind it to give the illusion she was riding across it. No doubt it sounds cheesy, but the quality of their illustations were excellent and artfully done in ink-on-white like in that video.
