[QUOTE="Gundark, post: 2008908, member: 6148"] Well I gave the first collection only 3 out of 5 stars. Counter Collection 2 is a much better attempt. THE GOOD: Not only do they have many many more counters and differnt varieties (they fixed my earlier Dragon gripe from the first set). The artwork is by the same artist and overall is very good. I like how they have a selection of PC/NPC counters that the players or the DM can use. What also I like about this product is that they have counters for familiars. This is something that I thought was inventive. THE BAD: What I don't like about the product. Well there is no adventure this time. The adventure in the first set was hokey but it could be fleshed out to be something quite good. Instead they give you a couple presitge classes and a few magical items that I will probably never use in my games. Also again there is the complaint of the over represented/under represented counters. Not so much with the creatures, but with the PC/NPC counters I don't know about other campaigns but we don't use that many elves, and this set has a bunch of them, where as there are very few halfling and gnome counters (maybe not popular but more choice would have been nice). THE UGLY: The first counter collection had a guide on the back as to what was what. This one makes you guess. Now while the monster art is good, sometimes it deviates from what is presented in the monster manual so your left to guess what the hell a certain token is. They do tell you what counters are there, they just don't put the names to the faces. Real annoying...I spent some time guessing. THE DIAGNOSIS: If you use counters then buy the product, you'll be glad you did. If your wierd and don't want the product for the counters but the RPG materal inside......well I hope you don't get a chance to breed and reproduce:) Gundark [/QUOTE]
