I was guessing that Orcus would be one of the crossovers but I was betting from Scott's handle that Grazzt would have been in there as well. Fraz Urb Luu is a surprise for completely OGC.

I loved the B&W artwork in the original MM2's demons and devils, if you can recapture that level of quality and evocative art it will be awesome.

Looks like it will be a great book. (I just wish there were a cheap PDF version for the new stuff and art, although I know I am in the minority for that preference)

Intresting..

You see, I'm a WotC man meself. I never buy any third party stuff, except Monte-Cooked-It-Ups, of course, but now, this I'm going to buy. Good thing they got Scott working on it. I'm confident he does a fine job.

Oh yeah, the return of Flumphs! I can remember being served a fried one as a drow delicacy in a game once, although my good aligned character luckily did not know what Flumphs were.

Scott, glad I could help. I'm still wondering about Orcus, but I imagine that get's explained since it's not a copyrighted name.

Krusty, no matter what you ARE the God man! I do have to say I'm EXTREMELY impressed with Tome, even more than I had originally thought possible.

It IS hardbound....one monster to a page, etc.

Wouldn't have it any other way.

Hi Scott

I was talking in general colour pictures are nice, but as with any book it's whether it;s hardbound or not that i want first as far as presentation goes, so as far as the art is concerned i'm happy, because my criteria has been met, still i would have liked to have seen boggles make the book they are on all favourite of mine (i use your conversion for them in my game already <g>)

My version of the boggles? Cool. Ya should pop over to the CC forums and post playtest/game results of their use in the forums. That way I can make any adjustments needed and also see how they perform in 3e. I havent used them yet, but will at some point.

Thanks Numion. Glad the power of evil can corrupt a WotC man.

My goodness, if this was available 6 months ago, my conversions would have been unncessary!

Though the book versions are cleaner, longer (text-wise), and corrected/altered in some ways...the Creature Catalog has most all of the conversions that are in the book and it has beeb going strong now for about 18 months or so.

Link is in my sig if ya need it.
