Collectors arcana: The new boxed format contained two spiral-bound flipbooks, one for DM and one for the players. The flipbooks
contained the adventure data plus interior art. The outer boxes soon proved to be too weak to support their
contents in everyday life of a gamer. Most available used copies are smashed or have tears. This is true with most
shrinkwrapped copies, too. Clarify the condition of the outer box before purchase or bidding with the seller when
purchasing used copies of Dark Sun adventure boxes.

"The palace of the Forest Queen contains treasures unimaginable. To the sons and daughters of Athas's harsher climes, Guld and the Crescent Forest
seem almost perversely lush, a jumble of green and growing things hording precious water for the benefit of the few. But while basking in the glow
of Lalali-Puy's gratitude, your characters have the richness of the forest at your beck and call.
Of course, the Oba's sensibilities are easily bruised, and her nature is notoriously unforgiving.
Gulg's dank dungeons are only a staging area to a deadly ceremony, where the young nobles of the city chase
prisoners through the forest to earn their places as lords of their city &mfash; the Red Moon Hunt.
Designed for four to six characters of 7th to 10th level, Astlician Gambit makes them pawns in a
dangerous game between Oba of Gulg, the Shadow King of Nibenay, and mysterious representatives of the Asticles familiy of Tyr.
A stand-alone adventure, Astlician Gambit can also be played as the sequel to Freedom, Road to Urik and Arcane Shadows"
