I send an email with informations and scans

For archive, I copy informations there

1st print: I never found any mention in magazines (nor old gamers or sellers I know) to a release without the box. You could ask to "le Rahib" to be sure.
Apparently the 1st print didn't include pen and dice (but someone told me the contrary...)
Copyright in the rulebook is 1982 and the cover states 1982.

2nd print: the rulebook states first print 1982 and "premier tirage 1982" on the copyright page as the 1st print,but the cover states 1983.
On top of the box, the content list includes pen and dice
The box contains rulebook, 2nd print French B2 and dice and pen

3rd print: Rulebook states 3rd edition, revised, 1st print 1985. Contains two rulebooks (master and player) dice and pen. On each side of the box, the copyright states "touts droits réservés" (misspelling) instead of "tous droits reserves" (correct).
The color of the box makes me think that the scan on Acaeum for this 3rd print (darker red) is in fact the box of the 4th print (brighter red).

4th print: it is the only box which is in heavy/hard card board (not soft as the other prints). The box is slighty bright too. The content is the same as 3rd print but the misspelling "touts" has been corrected. The rulebooks state 1st print 1985 but on the bottom of the page, under the TSR logo, it is written Novembre 1987. The title of the rulebook are written in italic instead of normal font.
