About Tales of the Lance Boxed Set
The perfect introductory game to the DragonLance saga, this boxed set includes complete background to introduce this successful line to new players. The material shows players and Dungeon Masters how to create the DragonLance saga “feel” in their own campaign. 3 maps; 12 cards.

Thank you for watching today's Dragonlance Mail Time episode. Do you have a copy of this boxed set? What's your favorite part of the unboxing? Leave a comment below!
I have this very set. It was worth the 15 bucks at the time. No wonder TSR went out of business. What a deal.
Awesome! I do still have mine but it's not in as good condition as this one and I don't recall seeing that color battle map either, I have to take a look later – that looks awesome! Now, we need to figure out how to get one of those Dragon Highlord Helmets!! Haha
This box set of note is significant like 'New Tales' because it lists Tasslehoffs character card as 'Kalin' Tasslehoff Burrfoot. According to Margaret Weis after showing her new tales and this boxed set informed us that this material was published in 1992 Weis and Hickman had left TSR by then; she also said Harold Johnson probably didn't do it either and was most likely added by TSR. It was 'NOT part of the established Canon as far as they were concerned'- alas this is the Dragonlance set I purchased in 1994 as a kid along with the 2nd Edition Players Handbook.
O.O omg this brings back soooooo many great memories. Thank you for sharing (mine got destroyed during a move many years ago)
I have two copies of this boxed set because it is so good. I still use it to this day, as I am running a 2nd Edition War of the Lance campaign.
I have iit, not in such a good shape but it still puts a smile on my face.
I could just imagine someone trying to have that conversation with their wife:
"How much did you spend on this crap!?"
"Honey I know you're mad but let me ease your concerns but first talking about the huge nostalgia value…"
p.s. Is a digital copy of that version of the map of Krynn available online anywhere?
Bought it new in the 90s, sold it in the 2000's, repurchased it last year! Paid more than I sold it for I reckon. I've used the source book a lot and it a great companion to the 5E campaign.
Yup for sure. Its right next to my Birthright boxed set
I'm so happy I managed to pick this up about a decade ago when it was just $30 or so.
