Basic Dungeons & Dragons

Basic Dungeons & Dragons, known as the Basic Set was the successor to Original Dungeons & Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons (1974)

The original Dungeons & Dragons boxed set by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson was published by TSR, Inc. in 1974. It initially included the original edition of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game...

 was working on the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons set. This set was the beginning of the split into two separate games, driven by disagreements on the direction the game should take. The Basic set retained the simplicity and flexibility that had made the original game such a best-seller whilst Gary Gygax

 took Advanced Dungeons & Dragons in a more structured and complicated direction.

Initially it was expected that players would start using Basic edition and then 'graduate' to Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. However, in 1981 the Basic Set underwent a completely new revision and not long after this the Expert Set was released for the first time. All references to a progression from the Basic Set to Advanced Dungeons & Dragons were removed from the games and supplements as TSR, Inc.

 made clear that the expected progression was from the Basic Set to the Expert Set. From this point the D&D Dichotomy became fixed and the Basic/Expert set pair were considered a completely separate game from Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. This separation continued until the eventual reintegration of the two streams into a single game in 2000 with Dungeons & Dragons, third edition.

Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition and v3.5

A major revision of the AD&D rules was released in 2000. As the Basic game had been discontinued some years earlier, and the more straightforward title was more marketable, the word "Advanced" was dropped and the new edition was called just Dungeons & Dragons, but was still officially referred to as 3rd edition (or 3E for short).

This edition was the first to be released by Wizards of the Coast

In July 2003, a revised version of the 3rd edition D&D rules (termed version 3.5) was released that incorporated numerous rule changes, as well as expanding the Dungeon Master's Guide and Monster Manual.
