See, this thread got sucked into speculation about 5e.
...updated the review in the first post a little bit, BTW.

Sorry... that was probably my fault.

np, I did ask if the release of HotEC had been overshadowed by the announcement of 5e, I guess it has...

It's a shame because I am really looking forward to this book and I think it will revitalise my current game.
(And I am much more excited about my current game than I am about the next edition of D&D....)

[MENTION=996]Tony Vargas[/MENTION] - about how many pages of 'fluff' devoted to the Elemental Chaos and its environs/history would you say there is in the book ?

Thanks Larrin! That is actually quite a bit more than I was expecting. I think this has just hit my 'buy' list!

Hi there,
I am interested in this book, but I am wondering did they fix the flaws from the Imix and Ogremoch in MM3 with the Cryonax and Yan-ci-bin entries?
Specifically that of making all the detailed subordinates utterly useless when running encounters wherein the goal is to face the BBEG themselves.
e.g.
Imix = Level 32 Solo Controller
Chosen of Imix = Level 22 Controller
Conflagration Orb = Level 20 Artillery
Flameborn = Level 15 Artillery (Leader)
others Level 5, 6, 7 and 8
I can understand the idea of having different strata representing the cult and Imix' own realm but there was just too big a gap between Imix and all his other subordinates. The difference was just as pronounced with Ogremoch.
