Not for rules that are obsolete. But for inspiration!I will add stuff as it is brought up after review4eDraconomicon: Chromatic Dragons and others.Of all editions, the 4e Draconomicon I believe is the best version. Everything from regional aftereffects if an ancient baddie dies to lair ideas. Only thing is, no gem dragons.3e/3.5Stronghold Builder's GuidebookTHE book if you have characters building strongholds, cities, and other structures. A must for higher level games.Hero Builder's GuidebookFor the backstory geeks among us, the best assist for creating a family history, both current and ancestral, that I know of.2e and earlierWilderness Survival Guide and Dungeoneer's Survival GuideThese two books are masters in the class of running great outdoor campaigns.World Builder's Guide At a certain point, as a DM you transcend beyond just making sessions and trying to keep the rules straight/people happy. If you find yourself running a long campaign and want/need to create a world, this is for you.1e Dungeon Master's GuideNot only for old school cred. More resources and advice than you can shake a stick at, and though some of that advice is very dated (being oriented around an approach to RPG's that is simply not used anymore - or at least not understood) a LOT of it is still better than anything that's been published since.Any others I am missing?</blockquote>
