Next up on our tour of each and every D&D release from TSR is another iconic module from 1980 - S3: Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. D&D with blaster rifles! While not a favorite of mine, I appreciate that many feel otherwise. Here is my original shrink copy.

We are in the year 1980 on our D&D/TSR product tour. We now get to enjoy a few of my favorite products, the AD&D modules! Up today is the iconic A1 Slave Pits of the Undercity. Here are my two 1st prints in original shrink. These are noted for being slightly taller than the subsequent printings.

We are now in the D&D/TSR release year of 1980. The DM screen went through many printings, but the revisions between 79-80 (2nd-4th printings) saw the additions of the famous Erol Otus art, thicker material, and a varnish surface. Here are my 3rd and 4th printings. Have a great weekend everyone!

My hyperbole aside, the year 1979 really did see some huge releases by TSR/D&D. I mean, how axiomatic is today's release - the AD&D DM Screen! This important product will change over the years, and we will get into that, but for 1979, here is what it looked like. Here are my two 1st print copies.

One of the more challenging things to keep straight when collecting D&D/TSR stuff is all the character sheets. We remain in the year 1979 on our tour. Previously, I showed you "Character Record Sheets" from 1979. In that same year, they also released "Player Character Record Sheets." Here they are.

I have to admit - I am quite taken with our Alliance system in our new organized play program, Wardens of the Eastern Marches. It is going to be so fun for players and DMs. If you are at all interested, the entire program is a free download at gameholepublishing.com Excited for Gamehole Con 2025!

On our tour of D&D/TSR releases, character sheets are likely my second favorite thing behind the modules. We are now stepping into the year 1979. The 1979 sheets are tricky as they use the same cover as the 1977 ones. Here are several of my 1979 sheets, blue, gold/yellow, white, and green.
