Complete complete series?

[Kae'Yoss]

I'm not sure what they'd do.

We have all bases covered twice over. Maybe they'd do another Complete Warrior thing, with even more combat stuff, but that would be redundand I'd say.


I would welcome Complete Martial Adept (with more Book of Nine Swords goodness), or support for other D&D extra classes. Complete Incarnum maybe?

I'm interested if there will be any more Completes. It just feels like there's one missing, but I can't put my finger on it.

There hasn't been a second book on fighters and their kind. I would have thought it would show up late in 2007 (like, a year after Complete Mage), but nothing on the schedule. Perhaps someone will poke around Amazon to see what releases are listed for early 2008.

No "Complete"s there beyond what's already been released. The only yet-to-be-released D&D hardcovers that show up on Amazon are:
- Expedition to Undermountain
- Monster Manual V
- Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk

...and all of those have 2007 release dates at this time.

Complete Incarnum maybe?

During the WotC Interview with the designers of Magic of Incarnum, they did say they would do a Complete Incarnum if there was a demand for it. Lately there hasn't been a big demand for it, unfortunately.

Now, that's really WotC's problem that there's no demand. They made Magic of Incarnum and then did no further support. A lot of D&D players really don't get into new material if the new material doesn't receive a constant stream of support. Magic of Incarnum got support a total of THREE times since its release: once in Dragon Magic, once in a Class Acts article of Dragon Magazine, and once on their website on the Mind's Eye article (it was new soulmelds for psionic characters).

That's about it. Of course there's no demand for more Incarnum...there's no support for it!

Quit threadcrapping, please.

Does anyone have a serious reply?

If anyone had a legitimate answer, it would have been posted much earlier than all the crap. Nature abhors a vacuum. ... And reading between the lines of crap, it becomes obvious that there are at least a few folks who harbor sarcastic disgruntlement toward the product line.

Well- don't know about that, since the first response was one minute after the original post...

I always put the Book of Nine Swords in with the complete series. It probably isn't intended for that as it really isn't more completeness for fighters, et al.

I think we could still use another Complete Warrior/Fighter type book. And to echo others and Complete Incarnum would do well too.

Thanks,

Feh. If we saw a "No Threadcrapping" warning posted on every topic that drew a few silly responses, this board would die within 36 hours.

A legitimate response was bound to show up sooner or later.

But to the topic at hand: I'd be happy if they never produced another "complete" book. They're getting less interesting and messier with every new iteration.

Personally, I'd like a Complete Warlock, where they take the class, stick it in there, reprint all the invocations in one place, reprint all the PrCs in one place (okay, I think there's only the Hellfire Warlock, but considering how they toss stuff randomly into other books who knows?), reprint the variants in one place (the Dragon-themed one in Dragon Magic, for instance), reprint all the Warlock feats in one place, and add some new stuff.

On second thought, that's more like a Warlock Compendium. But I'd still like it... I like that they're supporting a non-PHB class, but it's frustrating when stuff for said class is scattered all over the place.

True. In fact, of the "optional system add-on" books, I'd say the one most likely to get the "Complete" treatment would be the Bo9S (based on popularity).
