[QUOTE="Staffan, post: 2943520, member: 907"] You're forgetting Night Below and the Dark Sun flipbook adventures (which were sort of halfway boxed sets). Also, most of the campaign settings had all sorts of cool stuff in their boxes. The 2e FR box had four poster maps (two 90 mile-per-inch ones that covered pretty much all of Faerûn, and two 30 mile-per-inch ones that covered the Western Heartlands, Cormyr, Sembia, the Dalelands, the Moonsea, and the Vast), two transparent hexgrid overlays, six cardboard sheets with assorted symbols, as well as a total of three books (A Grand Tour of the Realms, Running the Realms, and Shadowdale), and eight MC sheets. The Land of Fate boxed set had two books, 12 cards, 8 MC sheets, three maps, and one transparency. City of Splendors had three books (Campaign Guide, Who's Who, and Adventurer's Guide), one booklet (Secrets), SIX maps, and another 8 MC pages. Boxed sets are great for campaign settings, because they provide a great way of organizing things into rules bits and setting bits, or over-arching bits and specific bits, and then throw in an adventure and/or some extra-specific part (e.g. the 2e FR box's book about Shadowdale), lots of maps, and assorted cool stuff (like the cards).
