    Fantasy "biotechnology" and other alterations

    Again, I am not saying it is crap. Out of the 3 products Monte did focused on biotech, Dark Space, Windriders of the Jagged Cliffs and Chaositech, WJC is the only one I like. As for the Koboldnomicon, I don't like parody material in rpgs so I never read it. Where should I put it in the OP? And...

    Races as breeds, not species?

    This is how Dark Sun explained the diversity of races, at least in the second box. The nature masters converted the defeated nature benders into non-halfling forms as punishment.

    Fantasy "biotechnology" and other alterations

    Heh. Another use for the bloodlines in UA and by 5th Element. I would love to see a setting based on every human(oid?) having a bloodline.

    Fantasy "biotechnology" and other alterations

    Actually I use the 5th ed. rules and have come up with mutations that cover the idea almost perfectly. Weaponized animals that can breed true are such a potential resource for those mages and nations willing the pursue the idea should be wealthy or powerful. The danger of them escaping or being...

    Mud creature suggestions (my players stay out)

    The first edition MOP (or was it the planescape MC III?) mentioned how the quasielemental plane of ooze was filled with worms and burrowing insects. How about gricks and giant roaches?

    Dragon/Dungeon archives on CD/DVD?

    As long as the Dragon was from 251 on and Dungeon with all the issues, then yes. If they were just the 3.5 issues, no.

    Which 3rd party publishers will survive?

    I wonder if Atlas, AEG and FFG are going to jump back in. Hopefully we will see more of the Horizon line.

    How do fans of OTHER RPGs handle new editions?

    Gamma World / Metamorphosis Alpha fans generally hated GW 5 and 6 and MA 3 and 4 but still bought them to mine for ideas.

    I'd like to be excited, but...

    If you like 3.5, why don't you continue playing it? Is there someone holding a gun to your head demanding you convert to the new edition?

    Best fluffy 3E books?

    I own 2 others. Living Fantasy is filled with lists just like Worldbuilder. Cosmos Builder is great if you want to stick with bog standard D&D planes (ie good vs evil). Some more suggestions: The enchiridion series from ST Cooley (pdf only). Treasures and Objects D'Art is the least fluffy and...

    Don't they already have 2 other winners still under wraps from the last contest?

    Best fluffy 3E books?

    I don't own L&W and the subject matter doesn't interest me. I have no idea about TL; isn't treebore their unofficial spokesperson here?

    Best fluffy 3E books?

    Settings are difficult since each one is fluffy by definition. Personally I would suggest Oathbound, which is in print and pdf, because it is one of the most flexable settings. Even though it is set up to be a megagrind, there is plenty within the setting for everything else. Wildwood, the last...

    What old setting would you like to see republished?

    The concept is better than the execution. I would definately want to see it revived for 4e along with Dark Sun and a completely revamped Spelljammer. I expect to see the 12th edition of Gamma World/Metamorphosis Alpha as it is still the best science fantasy setting.

    Best fluffy 3E books?

    Including settings or just rule supplements? Print only or pdfs as well?

    Broken!

    After reading it, I think it would make Astromundi much more dark and different from the usual, silly Spelljammer crystal sphere. It also make infinity vine and mortiss valuable commodities as they are the only lifeforms that create air.

    Ultimate BBEG - Millions of offspring?

    Bastion's Minions has a critter, the seeder, whos unique "power" is to convert humanoid males so that their offspring are seeders. The long term consequences (either 10 months or decades to centuries) can be staggering.
