Duergar are cool but need additional support and can be one dimensional if played as written. I love the fact that they are assumed to be psionicaly inclined.

Where is the Githyanki love?! Without a doubt my favorite nonstandard race. I always thought they deserved a -2 to Intelligence or Charisma instead of Wisdom thus making them better psychic warriors but that's just me. I always liked the Pevishan from Mythic Races. the entire writeup is...

This from a person who attended GenCon SoCal last week: "I saw The World's Largest City there, but didn't pick it up when I first saw it. I should've because they only had 5 advance copies for sale. The actual book won't be released for a few months. Dang it." you can read the original post...

I'm curious as well. I assume they will go with the same CR20 stats they used in FCI which I'm not too happy about but it can't be helped at this point. I'll but it regardless and pray WotC has the wisdom to print FCIII.

Have githyanki appeared in any other set?

How abouot the Githyanki Lich Queen? She went from a passing reference in the 1st edition Fiend Folio to the focus of big adventure in Dungeon Magazine. She even has her own miniature in the latest D&D mini's set. I believe she was also mentioned in Planescape but I don't own the book so I...

I found the article to be a waste of space. However, the magazine is in sore need of more revenue so I don't see this feature going away any time soon. Once again we see the cripling affect of money on creativity. Tsk, tsk...

Thanks. You know the more I think about it the more I realize that Psionics is my favorite part of D&D. Without it, it just wouldn't shine as bright.

I don't mind the "crystal" feel they've given it with 3rd edition. Crystal weapons have always appealed to me to say nothing of crystal dragons (the only kind I can stomach these days). Psionics is also a bit more primal. I see psions as the only people able to control a wild power that is...

And I have no problem with that. Hell, I've created my own settings in the past but I have yet to ask anyone to play in one. Not because I don't think they will enjoy it, I just don't think I can do any better than what's already been published. I'm also not as prolific a writer as I'd like and...

Let's be honest. Homebrewing is all about stroking the GM's ego. It's great if you're the GM but, in my experience, bland as hell if your're one of the PC's. Oh sure, there are exceptions. I don't doubt that every world builder on this message board likes their setting best, but how do you...

By core i mean the the PHB, DMG and Monster Manual. I'll try to edit the poll although I think it might be a little late to make much of a difference.

I don't expect this to be the definitive answer or even a scientific representation of all D&D gamers out there. I only intend it to be a reflection of a small portion of gamers out there. What do you think?

No, we most certainly did not. Sure there was an adventure in Dungeon magazine a while back (3.0 edition thank you very much) and an article in Dragon magazine but that, by no means, constitutes a "Year of Githyanki". I wouldn't hold my breath however. WotC is alergic to psionic themed...

I'm assuming that by "must have" you actually mean to say "like to own". If so here is my short list, somewhat in order: XPH Advanced Bestiary (Green Ronin) Book of Fiends (Green Ronin) Unearthed Arcana The Book of the Righteous (Green Ronin) Then a bunch of setting books which are completely...

To be honest, no, that doesn't interest me as much as, say, a campaign going from 6th to 15th level. You said it yourself, the first five levels the characters are a bit fragile. I find 10th to 15th more interesting. It's the period where PC's really start shining and power and skills come to...

I think it's a bit premature for me to pass judgement. I didn't start reading the Age of Worms AP until 6 or 7 adventures were available so I had a much better feel of the big picture at that point. I can't say the same thing for the STAP based solely on the one adventure I've read. However...

I'm trying to figure out why I should buy this book. I saw a clip of the seminar the people at Wotc had at Gen Con about their upcoming releases. When it came time to discuss Dragon Magic they said something about (and I'm paraphrasing here) noticing how any book with either Dragon or Magic in...

Githyanki psychic rogue/scout/elocater - Instead of the signature silver sword maybe have him use a pair of glassteel kukri. A skirmish specialist. Githyanki scout/psychic warrior - a sniper type character. As you can tell I'm a bit of a githyanki fan.

Found it! Thank you. Page 65. It's definitely a nice material to make armor out of and dual weapon weilding fighters should consider it for their off hand weapons (they weigh half as much). Very nice aesthetic value as well. R.A. Salvatore has one of his new characters (a dual morningstar...
