[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 8261593, member: 82106"] Heh, yeah, that book was to 2e what UA was to 1e. We just never even allowed it near our games. It was also a pretty late cycle supplement. Like by that point all we were doing was playing out the final ends of campaigns that mostly stretched back deep into the 1e days, so I don't even think I bought a copy (I don't have it on my shelf anyway). There were a few other supplements we viewed with a jaundiced eye as well, like the Complete Book of Elves IIRC, which was pretty OP too, not to mention all the other Player's Option books... I think we can safely bin them all in the "Late 2e was pretty out of control" bin. This is an interesting bin to talk about in terms of its relation to the gestation of 3e though. Given that I'm pretty much ignorant on 3.0 though I wouldn't comment much on that in specifics... [/QUOTE]
