Well, so far I haven't received and D&D books, but I have purchased the following:

Creature Collection II
Nyambe
Arcana Unearthed
KoK: Secrets of the Abelouk Coast
Thecomplete Warrior
Book of the Righteous
Noble's Handbook
Lost City of Barakus
Book of Taverns.

Now, the main problem is, I had the stuff mailed to my parents in the US, and I'm waiting for my father to bring the stuff when he visits in February :D
 


Stronholds and Dynasties. I've been looking at running some material in such a campaign style. Now that I'm in the middle of reviewing Eden's Fields of Blood, it should be interesting to see which system gets used.

Warcraft Board Game. Ever since I played Green Ronin's little monster card game, Torches & Pitchforks I think, I've realized that board games and card games are usually a lot easier to deal with in terms of player interaction when dealing with meglomaniacs. "And then I add this PrC and this feat and..." "Hey, shut up and break out the Warcraft Board game eh?"

Fantasy Hero: Haven't started to look through this puppy too much as I'm also in the middle of playtesting HARP. In the middle of character generation and skill resolution. Very MERP like in some instances as opposed to Rolemaster. For those who don't know, MERP was the baby version of Rolemaster and it looks this like book goes that way also. Fantasy Hero though... Man, it's huge. One of the biggest books I've seen in a long time.

Now on the other hand, I helped spread RPG goodness this year too. One friend got the Book of Exalted Deeds, another the Underdark book and another some books I don't even remember, not counting the non-RPG stuff.

Same here. My family never buys me roleplaying books for Christmas or my birthday. None of them play D&D or even know what to buy, although I do get Christmas Cash sometimes, which I turn into a D&D purchase. I have purchased a few D&D books for myself though...

Book of Exhalted Deeds *
Dragon Magazine #315
Dungeon Magazine #106
Miniatures Handbook
Monster Manual v.3.5 *

* Bought through Amazon, still waiting for delivery. ;)

Now, all I need is the Draconomicon and my holidays will be complete. Heh.

Cheers!

I've been lucky. I got Underdark, Draconomicon and the Book of Exalted Deeds. And various gift certificates so I can supplement that.

Demiurge out.
 


Let's see, so far:

Mongoose's Book of Dragons
Mongoose's Strongholds & Dynasties
Gary Gygax's Living Fantasy
Fields of Blood
Dawnforge
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King minis game
14 blister packs of LotR minis
25 bottles of Vallejo paints
Return of the King Xbox game
Hunter: Redeemer Xbox game
 

This. I will use it to terrorize my players with some day.

We dropped a few hundred bucks in Oct, and put everything up for Xmas.

City Works
Dungeoncraft
Monster Handbook
Rappan Athak (sp?) 1,2,3
1000 Faces

My son also got a couple adventures and something I can't remember now.

My wife got a dozen brushes and a bunch of minis (including the dragon above).

And I got a dragon and ship! The ship's about 3 feet long...
