Includes complete encounter tables for dungeon levels 1–8+ and all types of wilderness terrain.

Old-School Essentials Classic Fantasy is a complete retelling of the classic 1980s Basic/Expert game, including all rules, character options, spells, monsters, and magic items.
The Classic Game Set contains the same game as the Classic Fantasy Rules Tome , just presented in a 5 book set for those who share our love of RPG box sets! The Old-School Essentials Classic Game Set + the Advanced Expansion Set also contains the same game as the Advanced Fantasy Player’s + Referee’s Tomes. Celebrating 40 Years of Basic/Expert! The Basic/Expert game which Old-School Essentials is based on was published in 1981 — 40 years ago! In celebration of this anniversary, we're delighted and honoured to announce that Erol Otus, legendary creator of the original B/X covers, has painted a brand new cover for the Old-School Essentials Classic Game Set!
