View Full Version : Looking for 3.5 D&D Magazine Ad

So, I remember seeing a D&D ad a long time ago, before I knew what the game was. I remember on one page was a picture of some sort of starter box (red, with a fiery dragon), and on the other page was a blue-inked notepaper sketch of a paladin. There was also a CGI beholder who had just sizzled one of the corners of the notepaper.

I remember that the ad was in Boy's Life, and that's about it.

Any chance someone can help me find it?

Closest I could find is this, but I don't think it's the one you're looking for?

Not quite, but it intriguingly has that same visual design. The D&D box was on the left page, and the beholder and paladin were on the right. It was a two-page spread.

Definitely an ad that was done within the past 15 years, I'd say. So, most likely 3E or 3.5E.

I just remembered that it featured the words "Make" and "Believe" in the advertisement.
