Are you buying these WotC products?

Hi there Storminator!

Cool name!

While you can check all the boxes to voe for all, you should have included a "None" box, which I would have checked.

I think under those circumstances you might just be better off not voting!?

The only one that I'd consider is the Chthulu. Nothing in the others sounds like it'll map to my style of gaming. Of course I could be wrong. Of course, if I am, I'll never know!

You could always read the reviews at ENWorld when these products come out.

I think there are a few reviews for Call of Cthulhu already floating about - from what I have read so far; everyone is giving it top marks.

 

[Dark Psion]

The only two must buy are the Epic Level Handbook, especially for epic psion rules, and Monster Manual 2.

I'll probably pick up Faiths & Pantheons for it's temples, clergy and Prestige classes in the realms.

As for the Call of Cthulhu book, I probably would never play in this setting, but might be interested in adapting the rules for a Ravenloft campaign.

As for the Dieties & Demigods book, just not interested. In my games the gods don't need stats, they are gods. If you are playing in a Hercules or Xena type setting, then I could see giving the gods stats.

 

[Crothian]

I have CoC and will more then likely eventual pick up all of these. I might not be able to use them all now, but there will be a time that I will make use of them. I make use of all my books over time.

Yeah picked up Storminator in high school, held onto it ever since. Then came the online days and I have a good reason to use it.

Hey! Quoting does weird things when you're quoting someone that intersperses quotes.

My point on the "none" vote was that without you're only going to get people that are going to get at least one of these. I suppose "other" fits tho.

I've heard good things about Chthulu, and the bizarreness has its place in any good game, but the super high level stuff I don't need, and I've got so many monsters to choose from now, I'll likely never use them all.

I'm mostly looking forward to Fields of Blood.

I think you can guess what I'm buying Krusty mate! After all I think you know me pretty well.

Just got CoC, not sure if we'll ever use it. I lost a lot of campaign info and characters (40+ pages of character histories, city history, location descriptions, plots and schemes) for a Vampire campaign I was going to start but didn't get to back them up before my hard drive got completely wiped out. Now work is more hectic than ever and even if I did have the time for a Vampire campaign (the way I want to do it), I don't know if I feel like going through all of that all over again. Right now we're just playing D&D with someone else DMing.

CoC is really good, but my players don't want to touch it for a couple reasons, but this has been made worse by a certain loud-mouth who never shuts up and has to act like he knows everything telling the group that if we play CoC, they would be rolling up characters every other session despite my assurances to the contrary. Having never gotten a chance to play it, they also don't seem to understand that the preparation time for a truly well-constructed Vampire Camarilla campaign (politics and so on) is considerably greater than a CoC, SW, WoT or D&D campaign where I can go adventure to adventure or session to session, and don't want to create new characters. Oh well, it could have been fun.

The Epic Level book I would consider getting if and only if we ever get that far along with the campaign... we're just at level 4 now. Deities and Demigods doesn't really interest us much.

Another monster book isn't going to send me running to the store - not right away, perhaps not ever unless I have money to burn and no other RPG products to buy (unlikely).

I don't know all that much about Faiths and Pantheons.

 

[Nightfall]

Oh and regarding MM2, I'm looking forward to seeing some of the new d20 monsters that WotC is picking up and redoing. Mmm Slacerian Dragon anyone? Or perhaps the Slithren/Ratmen?

Btw, Faiths and Panethons deals with Forgotten REALMS deities. It's basically the campaign version for Deities and Demi-gods. I'd get it...if only to compare deities. That and there's supposed to be MORE pr-classes...though I think if you get Dragon, you might already have a few.

 

[Lady Dragon]

All of the above,I don't miss important WoTC corebooks.

It's an interesting paradox, when I was young I had plenty of time to read all the books, but not enough money to buy them. Now that I'm older I have enough money to buy everything I want, but no time to read the stuff I buy....
