D&D 5E Street date for D&D Next Starter Game is July 15

The old Red Box definitely encouraged people to go buy AD&D. If they make a starter set of that quality, and manage to leverage it to the same effect, they can afford to take a loss on it. I think they are likely to go that route--put as much as they can into that $20 set, or maybe even a bit more, and expect it to do heavy recruitment for them.

I imagine they are planning to sell as many, if not more, Starter Sets than any other single item for the edition.

I doubt they'll be selling them at a loss!

Ladies and gentlemen, we may have a complete game.

Don't judge me Judgey McJudgerson

I believe Mistwell is a lawyer, not a judge.

 

[Nemio]

Woohoo, I'm so excited!

It's on the german Amazon site too.

Strange that there hasn't been an announcement yet.

This is pretty exciting news to wake up to. Excited to see the package art soon.

Strange that there hasn't been an announcement yet.

There's no Legends & Lore article up yet. I think today is the day.

Thaumaturge.

My collectoritis has compelled me to pre-order every single item there. At least the releases are spread out so it isn't $200 all at once!

It's on the german Amazon site too.

Damnit. Doesn't seem to be on the UK site.

 

[Hutchimus Prime]

Looks good.
I'll probably hold off of preordering it and grab it local when it's released.
