How Many 3.X Books In Your Collection?

[Robert Ranting]

Currently only seven, although I have access to most of them through my players, friends, and acquaintances:

3.0 Player's Handbook
3.0 Dungeon Master's Guide
3.5 Monster Manual (a gift from my players, and thus why it doesn't match)
Monster Manual II
Sandstorm (gift)
Complete Adventurer (gift)
Player's Handbook II

In all honesty, I've yet to play in a 3.5 game. I got into Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed in 2003 instead, and used it as the core system for my Homebrew setting, which is pretty much all I run. Mainly, I buy D&D books solely to pilfer ideas for that homebrew (the Scout, Wasteland gaming material, Shifter Druid variants, loads of feats).

In fact, up until a few of my friends bought me the Monster Manual 3.5, I relied entirely on the SRD for my "core D&D" monsters. Aside from the Yuan-Ti, there's really nothing left out of the SRD that I would want to use... Guess what my party started fighting a week after I got the MM?

I've got 'em all. (It's my sickness passion.)

Not sure how many minis, but probably around 1,000.

my hat of the plastic pos knows no limits.

although i own about 1500+ of the blighters so i can make a fair assessment

LOL!

I entered 25-50 but looking at it again....51+.

Add in non-WoTC adjust to 100+.

Add in DDM and yeah- I have a habit and I need a fix....when does Faiths of Eberron come out? This week......

 

[megamania]

minis count? That one scares me. I want to say over 4000 but could be off by 500.

I'm in the 51+ range regardless, but should I count the books I have duplicates of as well? There are a few books I own multiple copies of in hardback and pdf. I have a few extra PHBs (bought reduced price for water damage) for at the game table and I've bought many of the WotC pdfs which I already have in hardback.

I'm a casual collector, meaning I buy what I like; however I have most 1st, 2nd, and 3.x books as well as Dragon Magazines going back to issue 3 and all the Dungeon Magazines.

Unfortunately for me my 1st edition stuff isn't in good condition. As a kid I thought it would be cool to have all the maps in one reference folder. Many of my modules got their maps torn out or removed to this folder...which over time lost all of the maps.

11-25 is a really wide range... but that's where I fall.

 

[el-remmen]

10.

There wasn't an all option?

Nine 3.5 hardbacks and 2 3.0 paperbacks.

Ive only bought one eberron book, i dont buy adventures, i only have one races of book. But i buy everything else.
So that gives you an idea of what i have.
Include 3rd party publishers and non-d20 and i have a whole crap load 400+ range. And im not including the PDF's either.
