[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7747281, member: 6670153"] I think alot of the deities new to 5e could have been expanded up more, I mean alot of them have just the basics needed to use them, Name, "Province" which other editions I believe called Portfolio, Alignment, Holy Symbol and nothing more, I mean with research on the internet you can find details like on Wikipedia. See this book is one part monster manuel, one part player supplement, one part race (species guide) guide, a one part Demihuman Deities for 5e. Its not a bad book, it has some great stuff, but I feel like you could take all the supplements and the material in them and teorganize it by function and the material would work far better and be easier to use. Example take the Player Options and Spells Chapter from XGTE, add in the small Player Chapter from SCAG, add in the playable races chapter from Volo's Guide to Monsters, add in the EEPG, and finally the subrace/race player options stuff from MTOFs and you'd have a really great players options book that isn't too big. Then take the Monster Sections from VGTM and MTOFs and merge them to get MM2. Then take the deeper setting lore sections from VGTM and MTOFs and the SCAG and add them together and then well double that in new material and you have an exceptable FRCG. Then take all the stuff on deities from MTOFs, SCAG, and VGTMs and make a Demihuman Deities/Pantheon and Powers style book, add some space for the deities who need some details. 4 books no increase in release schedule and far, far more usable, and easier for newbies.
