So the 1E MM and PH have been made available in good quality PDF form finally, will we see the DMG getting the same treatment soon? I'd gladly pay $10 for a good searchable PDF copy. The DMG is one of the best rpg books ever written in my book (haha) but trying to find a specific rule or something can be annoying sometimes with the way it's. Free garfield comic books.
This is a let’’s read of the first edition DMG. I wanted to look at something old school. I was tempted to do the 1e Monster Manual, which is interesting in some ways such as the fact that Drow are described as possibly mythical, but there’s a ton of other bestiary Let’s Reads out there. Besides, for those who haven’t played 1e, where the philosophy was to keep a lot of information from the player, this is at times a strange and alien book.I played a little bit of 1e back in the day, though I was a BECMI kid. So I’m not completely unfamiliar with this, but don’t have an enormous amount of exposure.
I’m working off the PDF put out by WOTC (available at Drivethru) which I believe, except for the cover and the copyright info on the title page. Is identical to the printed edition.
Shannon Appelcline has a history of the printings of the Dungeon Masters Guide (no apostrophe in 1e) here.
The cover on the edition I’m going by is this:
The original picture is a lot more evocative, showing a lot more of the efreet, and adventurer’s fighting it. I like it, but assume that the scantily clad woman being held by the monster was not the sort of thing WOTC wanted to portray. At least she’s got a dagger. I think she may be trying to stab the monster.

(WOTC really cropped too much out of all the 1e cover reprints, but that’s a subject for another day.)We then learn, on the title page, this is 'A COMPILED VOLUME OF INFORMATION PRIMARILY USED BY ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS GAME REFEREES, INCLUDING: COMBAT TABLES; MONSTER LISTS AND ENCOUNTERS; TREASURE AND MAGIC TABLES AND DESCRIPTIONS; RANDOM DUNGEON GENERATION; RANDOM WILDERNESS TERRAIN GENERATION; SUGGESTIONS ON GAMEMASTERING; AND MORE.” (TSR's all caps, not mine. )
ForewardThe book starts with introductory remarks by Mike Carr, not Gary Gygax, discussing whether Dungeon Mastering is an art or a science, more of something with an individual flair, or based on attention to detail.
“Esoteric questions aside, one thing is for certain — Dungeon Mastering is, above all, a labor of love,” he says, before explaining how the AD&D DMG will improve your life as a Dungeon Master and, along with your imagination, help you create the best worlds possible.
