Imruphel said:I have never understood why MMII didn't attract more hate. It's a terrible book. Bad concepts coupled with bad design and topped off with some really bad art.
I was surprised by how much I liked MMIV. I much prefer fewer monsters with more lore especially when that lore involved adventure hooks. Hopefully MMV will be much of the same... but without the stat blocks for classed humanoids.

The Book of Nine Swords is another waste of trees. And the MM4? Do we really need those spawn of Tiamat? Wizards gotta get their paper, I suppose. :\
Interestingly, the ocean strider has already seen use in a WOTC novel - The Alien Sea, by Lucien Soulban. It's a Dragonlance book, and so that means that the first appearance in fiction by this creature may just be a DL novel.RichGreen said:I do agree that the ocean strider is dreadful though and the yugoloth art is shocking
