The Best & Worst of 3rd Edition: Nominate the best of the rest (closed)

TerraDave

5ever, or until 2024
In my sig, you can see the four polls I set up for WotC third edition products. (Vote if you haven't).

But most products for 3rd edition D&D were not made by Wizards. What 3rd party products do you think where the best for the 3rd edition of the game?

Green Ronin, Paizo, Necromancer, Malhavoc, ENWorld Publishing, Privateer, Swords & Sorcery, Fiery Dragon, Goodman Games, Expeditious Retreat Press....and the many others, let me know the best products they made for 3rd edition.

This could include just about everything BUT stand-alone OGL games like Conan and Mutants and Masterminds.
