[QUOTE="guachi, post: 8424754, member: 6785802"] Starter Set/Free Basic Rules- Devoured the Basic Rules when they were released before the PHB was. Lost Mine of Phandelver is a great adventure. [B]Core Rules[/B] [I]Player's Handbook[/I] - Used so much I had to get my copy replaced for free [I]Dungeon Master's Guide[/I] - Read and used [I]Monster Manual[/I] - Used a lot [B]Supplementary Rules[/B] [I]Volo's Guide to Monsters[/I] - The expanded sections on humanoids is nice. Never used the other monster entries though I appreciate having them. [I]Xanathar's Guide to Everything[/I] - The new subclasses are great. Used those so much I've stripped them out and made a separate Word Doc/PDF of all the classes/subclasses. Very useful as a player-facing handout. The rest of the book is a disappointment. [I]Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes[/I] - I enjoyed reading the sections on demons and devils quite a bit. The demihuman stuff was decent. The kind of book that combined what likely would have been 3-5 separate leatherette books in 2e into one book. Glad I own it even if I've never actually used it. [B]Adventures[/B] [I]Tales from the Yawning Portal Dungeon of the Made Mage Candlekeep Mysteries[/I] I've never actually read through any of these or even read more than a few pages, which makes me wonder why I bought them. As I recall, the first two were on a big sale on Amazon for around $20 and I figured that last one would have a few nice standalone adventures. [B]Other[/B] Galeforce 9 Spell cards - Exceptionally useful for newbie players [B]3rd Party[/B] You didn't ask, but it's the internet so it's not like that will stop me but here are the physical 3rd party books I own. [I]CAL1 - Calidar, In Stranger Skies CC1 - Calidar, Beyond the Skies CA1 - Calidar, Dreams of Aerie CAL2 - Calidar, On Wings of Darkness CST1 - Calidar, Under the Great Vault CST2 - Calidar, Skies of Fury[/I] (All of the Calidar books are by Bruce Heard, former lead for the BECMI line at TSR) [I]Cthulhu Mythos[/I] for 5e, by Sandy Petersen [I]Ptolus[/I] for 5e, by Monte Cook (This is exceptionally good) [I]Survivalist's Guide to Spelunking[/I], by Douglas Niles, et. al.
