D&D 5E Monster Manual Expanded II Second Edition News and Updates

That frost giant skald has an almost maniacal smile there lol. I guess he's really, really happy about the upcoming beatdown he's about to inflict on the characters? Or happy to have a new audience for a song?

He's waiting for @Snarf Zagyg to call him a bard.

I was going to release the update this week but due to unforeseen art delays, we will have to wait one more week. In the meantime, here's another beautiful art piece from Art of Neight to tide you over, the Sprite Keeper of the Grove!

The next update for Monster Manual Expanded will be released on April 15! Here's another artwork that will go with it: the Barbed Devil Captain and the Bearded Devil Enforcer!

• new lair actions (vampire lord)
• stat block changes (packmasters, shambling mound, sprite keeper of the grove, bone devil, chain devil, greater cockatrice, worg)

Version 2.01 of Monster Manual Expanded 2nd Edition is now available! Just head over to the DM's Guild and download your updated copy! Then sink your teeth at those new art pieces!

In case you missed it, the Monster Manual Expanded Second Edition penultimate update was released yesterday! The new Pixie Queen awaits you within its pages!

@Nixlord , when will the 2nd edition updates be complete? Also, IIRC, you are doing this for MMEII as well correct? If so, what is the schedule for that one? I am interested in getting them now with the new art (I've only got MMEIII currently), but I would like to wait until you have completely updated them.

The last update for MME1 will arrive before the end of May, and will then be prepared for print-on-demand, which may take another month or two. The best estimate for the PoD release is around July-August.

Yes, MME2 will be next. This will take the usual long process (artwork takes a lot of time) which can run from 4 to 6 months. PoD release will likely be from December 2022 to the 1st quarter of 2023.

Thank you for the update! I'm only interested in the PDF, so I will check back at the end of May.
