[QUOTE="AFGNCAAP, post: 1649173, member: 871"] Well, regarding the main topic: [list] [*]I have a set of the PHB, DMG, & MM books for both 3.0 & 3.5 (actually have 2 copies of the PHB for reference during games). The 3.5 ones are used more often, though I do crack open the 3.0 stuff when working on ideas for [I]Neverwinter Nights[/I] modules. [*]Most of the 3.0/3.5 supplements: Complete Warrior, Complete Divine, the softback class splatbooks, Expanded PsiHB, Oriental Adventures, Arms & Equipment Guide, Epic Level Handbook, Savage Species, Manual of the Planes, Deities & Demigods, MM2, Fiend Folio, Draconomicon, BoVD, BoED, and my most prized tome, Unearthed Arcana. [*]Have a few of the FR main books as well--mainly the 3.0 core setting book, plus Races of Faerun, MM: MoF, & Underdark. [*]Have a few earlier 3.0 3rd party supplements: Seafarer's Guide, Traps & Treachery, Dungeons, & the module "Maiden Voyage." [*]Also have the Stronghold Builder's Guidebook, Book of Challenges, & Hero Builder's Guidebook. [/list] Of these, I really like a fair amount of the 3.5 stuff, esp. Unearthed Arcana (I'm very tempted to get another copy to have at hand). XPsiHB is up there as well, since psionics has a role in my current tabletop setting (mainly dealing with the Blues). Lot of pick-&-choose from the other materials. As for stuff & don't like, well what I used to have I got rid of, mainly because it wasn't being used at all: Kalamar setting book, Faiths & Pantheons, Enemies & Allies, many of the softback FR supplements like Magic of Faerun & Lords of Darkness, Mythic Races, & a few other books. Eventually, I may get rid of all of my FR stuff overall (though I'll jot down info I want to keep--which isn't that much), once again through lack of use. What I like & dislike with all of the stuff I kept varies. I like the psychic rules & classes for XPsiHB, but I could do without most of the new races. I like the basic rulesets for OA, but could do without the Rogukan-specific stuff. If Complete Divine was a bit more polished, I think I'd like it better overall--as it is, I like some of the concepts, but I'm a bit unsure about implementing them. To a certain degree, I will like some books more than others, but there always will be a degree of usable/unusable content for me with each book. As for what I use: all of `em, though the core books are used most frequently. UA comes a very close second due to many of the optional rules within it. Least frequest is the 3.0 core books, plus the FR stuff, 3rd-party publisher 3.0 stuff, & the class-based splatbooks for 3.0. The only other thing which sees considerable use are issues of Dragon & Dungeon, mainly for adventures & info. [/QUOTE]
