Wizards of the Coast Dungeons and Dragons RPG: Core Rulebook

This set is absolutely flippin' amazing. Honestly, I expected a little less from this. In the dark, the light makes the foil light up with much more contrast than in the light. I had my players handbook out, and was setting up a campaign with my brother, I turn over to the side of me, and there is the face of a red glowing man with a skull on his head, and a bright orange beard, with bright orange eyes! Honestly, I've been addicted to looking at these with light behind them now. Anyways, apart from the beauty of the set, the DM board is pretty helpful. Has a section for Combat, combat statuses (paralyzed etc), Difficulty Checks, dice checks of various sorts, time frames, movement, it's quite helpful. The art side is very interesting, and while I hate dragons, I can intimidate my players without having to look at them. Muahaha This set ended up being much more interesting to me than I thought, and I thought pretty highly of it. The contents of the books are the regular contents of the Players Handbook, Monster Manual, and Dungeon Master's Guide. This is not an issue though, this is exactly what I was looking for. The artist of the Covers, Hydro74 I think it is, also did the cover for Xanathar's Guide to Everything Deluxe, and Volo's Guide to Monsters Deluxe, as well as one more box art I think. Not quite sure what that was again, though I'm sure it's not too hard to find, the art is stunning, nearly everything is foil, not just the red, not just the blue, not just the purple. The Monster's manual has a sort of silvery tint in the light, but a blue tint in the dark. The Player's handbook has orange and red. The DM's Guide, Purple. Each of them have a sort of metal color foil as well, a silver or tarnished silver, or steel. It's very beautiful. On my box, on the bottom side, the foil was worn, other than that, the rest of the entire set was perfect, without any hiccups. No stuck pages, no oil, no glue, no warped pages, exactly what's in the picture. Another thing to note, in the binding of the books, there is a red bookend, it adds a tiny bit of flare to the book. If I could have added anything to these to make them better, it would be to gilt the pages. With red, blue, and purple. That would be insane. You can actually do this yourself, but please be weary of the type of paint, ink, or metal that you try to gilt the pages with. Hope your 2019 is well!
