I played one of the later versions of the first D&D (the red books...D&D Basic Rules box set). It remains one of the early catalysts of my imagination, and will remain a fond memory.
In a world of Monopoly, Risk, and the Game of Life, these guys created something stupendous that is still going strong.
Thanks, Dave.
