Help me fill out my RPGNow order

[brak1]

Hey all.

I'm going to buy Grell Head Studios' Sprawling Shadows, Weapons: Book of Swords vol. 1, created by Cthulfthgan and Malessa (check out the art forum for a FANTASTIC dragon by Malessa, by the by). At 99 cents it's a great deal, but there is the problem of the $4.95 minimum order. Not that it's a problem financialy, but I don't know what else to buy. I considered picking up the Banewarrens, but I'd rather buy anything that's in print at my FLGS.

So, my hope is that you folks might give me some suggestions as to what to purchase at RPGNow that I can't get in print. (I have already bought Tournaments, Fairs and Taverns, which I love.)


Thanks for the help!

Thanks alsih20! I'll check it out. Not sure I need a title generator, though.

Nobody else?

if you are into apocalyptic-style RPG's, check out Darwin's World. One of the best $5.00 purchases I ever made.

If you want more magic items there is that swords to plowshares one (I don't have it so I can't talk about its quality) but there are a ton of good stuff, what are you interested in? monster books, class books, adventures? non fantasy, non d20?

Um.. yes.

Seriously, I'm a gaming slut and anything good I will read or use. I'm just looking for something I can't get in print and that you all liked or heard good things about.

If I wasn't so lazy (or strapped for time at work) I'd go look at reviews myself, but honestly I'm not sure where I'd start.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, all!

How about 4 more copies of Sprawling Shadows, Weapons: Book of Swords vol. 1?



Thanks for the kind comments

My suggestions:

1. Great Aspeigh: A Detailed Hamlet
2. 101 Mundane Treasures
3. Swords into Plowshares
4. The Book of Curses
5. Minions: Rebirth

If you need a mapping program, Fractal Mapper 6.0 is fantastic with only a medium learning curve (as opposed to CC2's astronomical one).

Books I have read (and reviewed either here or on d20 weekly)

Monsters

Minions Rebirth: a ton of monsters, each illustrated.

Classes:

Bards:
Enchiridion of Mystic Music good ways to add bardic abilities, but needs an easy tweak or two.

Enchanter:
Joe's Book of Enchantment:
Also includes a great feat template system to get improved feats for any existing feat or power.

Paladin:
Call of Duty
Forgotten Heroes
Both pretty good.

Monk
Beyond Monks
Great list of martial arts feats

Ones I have not reviewed but have
Librum Equitis I and II
lots of prestige classes but will come out in print

BOEM magic ones but are in print as well

Adventures
Ebon Mirror from Atlas Games
Got it but have not gone through it yet, but they do good stuff with a neat feel to it.

I keep hearing good things about these but don't have them: book of templates, races of evernor. The book of curses looks interesting too as does that one on horror templates.

so there are some suggestions for you.
