Dungeons & Dragons Essentials Kit

When i was considering the starter set but I am extremely happy i chose the Essentials kit. - Biggest surprise was the nice glossy cards - multiple sheets with magic item, potions, condition effects( drawing on one side of the effect, written explanation on the other side) and several sidekicks. I was already considering finding magic item cards but i'm set for now (will be lookign for more in the future). No spell cards but since it's starter set this is good enough ( when players pick their classes, will be looking for those). - The map is great and has hexagons, so if you try to do some encounters, or determine how much time it would take for the party to go from one point to the other would be of use. - The dice - 4 x d6 - perfect amount for rolling ability scores, 2 xd20 - rolling disadvantage/advantage is easier with two dice available, the percentile dice has one of the better shown numbers (a bit smaller but easier to understand what you have rolled) - The DM screen - looks great (the art is lovely), but it's from sturdy cardstock and not cardboard like the Reincarneted Dungen master's screen. Still sturdy enough and good for starting out. - The discount code for D&D beyond - BIG plus. I've used D&D beyond before and super useful , especially for lookign up spells fast, makes character creation much easier. Having the discount code for sure was one of the reasons why i picked the essentils kit. - The added adventure - i have yet to go through it all but from what i have glimpsed - well presented and great help if you're new dm and haven't prepared your own adventure. You even get few cards with quests on them. - the basic rules - great to have. No need to buy the Player Handbook from the absolute start + you get a discount code for it on D&D beyond Overall for the money you pay you're basically set for some time. The

The dunguons and dragons essentials set is probably the best introduction to the dunguons and dragon world. It consists of some dice,a map (double sided), many blank character sheets, a prewritten adventure as well as a rulebook and cards for items, people and quests. The adventure is pretty good. It's not like other prewritten adventures, it has more choices as it consists of picking quests to do, with each quest being in a different place on the map. The adventure book also has a couple of monster stats at the back of the adventure book. The rulebook is also good. Not thick like the extra books that you can buy but it has all the information that you need at the start. The essentials set also consists of card, which are useful. There are cards explaining certain rules, like being grappled or suffocating, there's some initiative cards (the way of turns in a battle), there's some cards on some sidekicks. These can be used when there's only two people playing (one player and a dunguen master). However it is much more fun to play the game with 3 or more people. There's also cards on quests, these give you the name of the quest and some information on them. The cards are useful as it's a lot better to give something physically rather than telling them and then they'll have to write it down somewhere or remember it somehow. There are also a lot of blank character sheets.For someone who's only starting the game, it's a lot better to get pre made characters, this can be done by finding them on the Internet. I made my characters using dnd beyond, it's an app and it's useful for creating characters (give you a step by step guide) or getting information about Spells or tracking what happens at each level up. Other than the blank character sheets it's all perfect. Overall, in mu opinion, the essentials set is a lot better than the starter set, for someone who wants to start playing, I heavily recommend spending that extra bit of money to get something worth your while. You'll also have to learn some of the basic rules and know how the game works. It's a great start to start off a new hobby.

Hoewel je deze ook niet echt nodig hebt zitten er wel wat bruikbare en handige items in. Wel prijzig voor wat je krijgt.

La campaña es perfecta para los que van empezando, viene con: -Dos sets de dados bien balanceados -Tarjetas con información de los estados, como funcionan los turnos, la iniciativa, objetos mágicos, personajes y misiones. -Viene con un mapa de Phandalin, en el otro lado viene de costa de la espada. -Una versión corta del manual de jugador para crear tu personaje y como funcionan los turnos. -La campaña es de niveles 1 a 6, pero es fácil de expandir o personalizar, ya la he dirigido 3 veces y la estoy dirigiendo de nuevo, de manera diferente.

Le produit conforme, il y a de jolis dés rouge transparent, des cartes de sorts, une map, un livret de regles, une aventure (et d'autres choses à découvrir vous même) pour commencer Donjons et Dragons. Dans ce kit vous créez vous même votre personnage (il existe une appli si vous galèrer mais elle est en anglais) et une aventure à Phandalin et ces environs. Le colis n'arrivé pas, mais équipe réactive qui a proposé de me renvoyer l'article. Ils ont étaient très gentils.

Sealed and complete. cheaper than buying it at our local library. Perfect to starting out. My brother and me enjoyed our first session

Das Set enthält vieles was man als (neuer) DM braucht, die Karten finde ich besonders praktisch und es ist etwas was ich für weitere Abenteuer übernehmen werde, allerdings muss ich sagen dass es (nach kurzem Überfliegen) vom Aufbau eher für DMs geeignet ist, die schon zumindest ein bisschen Erfahrung haben. Für unerfahrene DMs finde ich das Abenteuer aus dem Starter Set (Lost Mine of Phandelver) besser strukturiert. Nichtsdesto trotz ein augenscheinlich gutes Abenteuer und ich freue mich drauf es mit meinen Freunden zu spielen. ACHTUNG: Laut Artikelbeschreibung sollen Codes dabei sein um das Abenteuer gratis und das Playerhandbuch 50% reduziert auf DnD Beyond zu bekommen, dies war bei mir nicht der Fall. Laut Dnd Beyond Support sind die Codes nicht mehr enthalten (auf meine Frage hin, haben sie sich allerdings kulant gezeigt)
