Hopefully, that'll help you get a better idea of how to run the setting.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Ari said what had to be said about this.  Even if the lack of mechanical alterations to a couple core classes wasn't to your particular taste, how the classes themselves are different from their standard fantasy counterparts is absolutely need-to-know stuff for anyone wanting to play in this type of setting, especially considering the specifics of this setting in particular.There's a whole host of new monsters in Book Three, as well as a discussion on what existing monsters are appropriate to the setting and how.On a related note, it's folks like you who have the power to get to see more of what you want out of Hamunaptra.  If sales warrant, you could very well see supplements before too much longer, possibly including an adventure.Happy gaming.--CAS</blockquote>
