[QUOTE="amerigoV, post: 5297037"] Despite the name, it really is not an Eberron Book. More of a PHB style book introducing the Eberron races to non-Eberron games (even the coloring of the book is PHB vs. Eberron). As others noted, a few feats might be in there, but it has low to zero value if you have the ECS (a player of mine tried to trade it to me for another book -- NO THANKS). [u]Stormreach[/u] is a good book if you want the best of both the mainland and Xen'Drik. Stormreach is a mini-Khorvaire (everybody has a faction) sitting on top of a continent of adventure. Plus Stormreach is smaller than Sharn, so PCs can get involved in factional politics more (if that is to your groups liking). You combine ECS, Stormreach, Secrets of XenDrik and Explorers Handbook and you got a ton of XenDrikian fun. On the original modules, someone noted they are Railroady. Yes, they are. But one of their prime goals is to show off the world. So it will whisk you from the Cogs of Sharn, to the Mornland, Xen'Drik, etc. Its not a bad way to get your PCs rooted in the world. The only negative is the opponents tend to be the Emerald Claw. They are supposed to be the Nazi's of the world, but really are inept and my players make fun of them. [/QUOTE]
