I just recently wrapped up a couple of campaigns and am trying to decide upon what I want to run after the holidays end.

I'm thinking about buying the Dragon Age box set and was wondering if anyone here has ran it and what you think of it.

Thanks for any information

pretty good timing as they just released an adventures book so you could grab that aswell and be set through whenever they release box 2.

To answer your question it's not a bad boxset but you may want to check out the wiki for some background info if you havent played the videogame or read the novels.

Hey, is there more stuff out or on the way for Dragon Age?

Set 2 Levels 6-10 is currently in Open Beta, you can download it from Green Ronin.  As far as other stuff, I think Set 2 is all that is known after Blood in Ferelden(which I just got in the mail last week :D)

When the box set came out, I was all for it. It's a nice system. Now, I wish they had just release a hardback that covered all 20 levels. Thanks to Bioware and approvals, I strongly doubt all four box sets will get published.

Also, check out the forums on Green Ronin. There are a number of extremely well-done fan-made pdfs for use.

They might just be waiting for Dragon Age II to hit the shelves...

I think they're planning box 2 to launch roughly when the second game does(next march) so my guess is they'll have something suitably dragon age 2 in mind for the post box 2 releases(probably something that covers the lands of the second game) as for anything else prior to box 2 i think the .pdf's people have made on the forums are your best bet for now.
