Day 3: First RPG Purchased

As you might expect given it was the first game I ran, the first game I bought to play was also D&D 4E. Technically I didn't need it owing to the quickstart rules, but I was well aware how much was missing from those. One of the reasons was that I did in fact already own some gamebooks, the D&D 3.5 DM's Guide and D&D 3.5 Monster Manuals, owing partly to a long-standing interest that hadn't yet had an opportunity, and partly because I liked the monster artwork and descriptions.
