Basic format went as follows: Intro Playing Races Race Variants Race Feats Race PrC Race Spells Race Equipment The exception is in the Other Races chapter, where we updated a several races from Bastards & Bloodlines, a surprise or two from Jade Dragons, some races from Aasimar & Tiefling, and a few new ones. The basic idea behind this book is to make your racial choice more important. As written, a character's race selection is important for about the first 5 levels or so (with the exception of a few racial PrCs and the very rare racial oriented magic item). So, b/c it's constructed with this in mind, everything inside emphasizes character options regardless of the level of play (translation: epic advancement for PrCs). Another decision I had to make was whether to keep some of racial cultural information touched on in say Wrath & Rage and Hammer & Helm. B/c space was at a premium, I opted to leave that stuff out, so you could use this book in any game (from Greyhawk to Freeport). From the outset, this is a rules heavy book, but not unbalancing. Also, there are no crummy feats (none of those dreaded +2 bonus to two skill feats). Prestige classes are challenging to enter, but offer lots of cool benefits. There's just a ridiculous number of spells too. Specific Answers Other Races: Specifically, you'll see stuff like the Trixie, Cambion, Nephilim, and the dragontouched. Elf: All MM subraces are described and given a little more flesh than the 1 p description in the MM. Oh, and you can use this book in conjuction with the APM, AB, AGG or alone. I'll spill a bit more as we get closer to the release. <a href="http://GRR Advance Race Codex Thread" target="_blank">http://www.greenronin.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=6062&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=10</a></blockquote>
