The Tarrasque. Maybe 1-2 other campaign-enders.  but deities and such=NO. Needs 400+ pages for necessary variety. How about NEW iconic monsters? Every edition spends 2-3 books reprinting old monsters and then puts in some lame new monsters that I can't imagine anyon thinks are cool. FOCUS on making new things we'll love.   How is centaur even a maybe? Centaurs are MUST. And if the rust monster isn't in it, I'm not buying it.  I check all the monsters I think are MUSTHAVES, although most on that list are probably should haves. Lore for player-use is GREAT but MM is DMbook.  Will sacrifice some new art for iconic art and morepages/cheaperprice. Entries should be 1-2 pages. No half pages. No blank space. Stats, picture, detailed description, lore/ecology - broken down into how common the knowledge is, common tactics, common variants.Book should have monsters + 10-20 pages on how to build monsters and how to tweak monsters for level. Absolutely DO NOT WANT multiple versions of each monster fully statted in the book. That's what your online component should be for. Your online MM can include professional AND fan-made variants for all levels / adventure types.</blockquote>
