I like the new name, Heroes of Battle, better than Battlefield Adventures. But I'm amazed at how many title changes WotC has been having lately.

Lords of Madness looks to be very interesting. Between the hive mother, the increased illithid info, the grell and the neogi, this appears to be the most Spelljammer-influenced book 3e's seen. I doubt we'll get spaceships, but I assume a lot of the ecology information has been adapted and terrestriallized. I'm looking forward to this one.
And am I the only one worried about subraces in the Races of Eberron book? IIRC, no subraces was a major design decision in the ECS.
Demiurge out.

So anyone know how much overlap there is between "Champions of Ruin" and the earlier FR "Lords of Darkness"?

"Lords of Madness" looks fantastic, but I disagree with them not reprinting the beholderkin from "Monsters of Faerun." They've reprinted almost half of the D&D content in the "Miniatures Handbook" by my count -- why not reprint and update this 3.0 content when it's (very) appropriate to do so?
"Heroes of Battle" sounds less and less interesting all the time. A book about secret missions and daring adventures? Isn't that pretty much the core books?
The previews for "Sandstorm" seem insufficiently exciting, which is strange, since it seems like such a slam dunk of a book, if it's even 75 percent as good as "Frostburn." (Deserts are more applicable for me.)
I'm hoping the subraces mentioned for "Races of Eberron" are the drow variants and core race tweaks. The main four Eberron races are plenty interesting as-is, especially once more prestige classes, shifter traits and racial feats are added to the mix.
