[QUOTE="Mythmere1, post: 2369189, member: 26563"] At last! My copy of M&T arrived in the mail today. I have only just started going through it (mainly checking the edits I made to the original draft - I read through A-F in an early draft). And also showing my son my name in the title credits. So far, all I've looked through is layout and illustrations. Thus far, an A on layout (my only complaint is the font used for the monster names - a bit busy) and an A++ on art. The pictures are a bit smaller than they were intended, I think, and I've had to look closely at a couple of them to see the detail. However, I can say that some of the illustrations are classic illustrations equivalent to the Rakshasa picture in the 1e MM. Truly that good. Check out the androsphinx, the satyr, the remorhaz, mummy, homonculus, halfling, ghast, gargoyle (the gargoyle pic should have been bigger - it suffers from the small size), the green dragon and the dragon attack pic on p. 20, the cockatrice, and many others. The dragon on page 7 is beautiful. I'm loving this. The androsphynx and the page 7 dragon are iconic pictures. I would buy the androsphynx original if I could afford it. Wow. Editing seems good. I have spotted only one typo in the book so far, and in the PHB spotting only one typo in a page was good. This is up to the highest pro standards as far as I can tell. This looks like a home-run product, and I'm as picky as they come. [/QUOTE]
