Bastion Press is looking for YOUR feedback!

Well, I must say that I am surprised at all the Minions feedback, but I guess in retrospect, it is a GREAT product! :

KoC, we are looking at having another at some point in the future, I assure you! Are there any other fan-related things (such as contests, giveaways, and so forth) that you would like to see the Bastion crew moving forward with?

As always, thanks for the feedback!

I'll echo that request...3.5 Minions would be great. In fact, anything 3.5 for that matter.

But, to be honest: what I'd really like to see is a nice juicy 1st level adventure, using 3.5 rules, that I can use to kick off a new campaign. I have so much trouble finding 1st level adventures I haven't played, especially with 3.5 rules. Adventures produced by Bastion (like 'Bandits') have been terrific.

Print would be nice, but I'd settle for .pdf. With Monkey God dropping adventures, there may be an opportunity here. Anyway, I know it may not happen based on ecomonics, but you asked what we wish for.

Duly noted, caudor - thanks for the feedback!

3.5 Oathbound? Good and bad... Good, because some of the creatures in there were done before we had true rules for ECL and Level Adjustment. Now we do. Bad... I am not buying the book twice just for the minor updates. Can you do what WOTC did and make a pdf document with all of the changes needed for all of your products?

As for Minions... I'd like to see a big hardcover (COLOR) book that contains all of the monsters from Minions, e-minions, and the other books updated to 3.5 along with a slew of new monsters... THAT I would buy. A massive monster book with everything from the other books... Yeeesss...

Yea, as I noted above, a new release of Oathbound just for 3.5 would likely be a waste of everyone's time - the CS isn't very crunch heavy to begin with, so there simply would not be that many changes needed. There is a movement currently to try and update everything in the Bastion line to 3.5, whether it be in print (such as Lore of the Gods) or pdf.

I am also in favor of a nice big, color monster book - we'll have to see what's in the cards! Thanks for the input!

I'll echo all the sentiment about a 3.5 Minions. I didn't stumble upon it until I saw the PDF of Minions - Revised, the combined original print and pdf e-Minions. I really love this supplement. I'd buy a hardbound in a flash.

I wouldn't mind a revised chart for the Arms and Armor to fit 3.5 as well. Though I am not sure if I like the change in the sizing of weapons and armor in 3.5, but that remains to be seen.

I voiced this on another board, but I'd like to see a Foul Locales type supplement set in Penance, describing parts of the Wrack. Or maybe a Bloodholds of Penance book outlining some of the other 60 or so Bloodlords in Penance. This book can have some information about running a canton or what happens when a PC actually becomes a bloodlord. (is this in Wrack and Ruin already??? can't remember)

How about a "Divine and Arcane of Oathbound" and/or "Mercenaries of Oathbound", outlining what you can expect when playing clerics, wizards, warriors or rogues in the campain setting. I really like what Sword and Sorcery did with the Complete Guides series for the Scarred Lands. It REALLY fleshed out the campaign world from the standpoint of a player, not a DM.

Just some thoughts... not to steal formats from other d20 companies, but rather, there are so many well developed ideas that can be ported to any campaign world, why reinvent the wheel if it's already been created under the OGL?

As I said before (on the other board), all excellent ideas, cat'sclaw! The only problem I see with using another company's format is customer backlash - most folks frown on "copy cat" type stuff (at least in my limited experience...)

Giving Minions Rebirth a 3.5 upgrade would rock.

A few weeks ago I was advising my current DM on what I thought appropriate DR for a Thodol in 3.5 would be. Or as he put it, for a hypothetical NE goat fiend with 20/+4 3.0 DR.
