[QUOTE="Echohawk, post: 4400867, member: 9849"] All of my players own at least the PH. Those that don't buy one themselves eventually get given one as a gift :devil:. Most of my players also have their own dice, and some have bought expansion books, specifically the PH2, MIC, SC and several of the Complete books. Since the other players don't have anything except the PH, I'd guess that the average number of D&D books my players own is about 2-3. None of them buy minis, tiles or adventures. I'm a reasonably... um... [s]obsessive compulsive[/s]... thorough collector, so I have enough minis and tiles to go around. That said, prior to 4e, it was easy enough for players of non-spellcasting characters to get by without a PH, but for 4e, we're finding that having a copy for each player is a must. Now that all classes have powers to reference, I suspect that more of my players will be purchasing expansion books, and add-on products like the upcoming power cards. (Aside: Reading that last bit back to myself, I can't help but picture someone from WotC marketing reading this thread and uttering a Mr Burns-like "Eeexcellent"...;)) [/QUOTE]
