Must have 3.5 supplements. . .

[jdrakeh]

I own the three core books, Ptolus, World's Largest City, AEG's Toolbox, Legends of the Samurai by RPG Objects, and both Northern Crown books from Atlas Games. I'll be picking up the Spell Compendium next week. So. . .

What must haves am I missing?

I'm not looking for standalone OGL games (e.g., Iron Heroes which, BTW, I own). Also, I'm not looking for splats of new feats or classes. What I am looking for are books specifically designed to supplement the 3.5 core rule books during actual play (e.g., stuff like the Spell Compendium, The Mother of All Encounter Tables, adventures, etc).

So, educate me please, ENWorld

Apart from the three core books - if I had to pick the next book to add to the table - it would be Spell Compendium, hands down.

It's not even a contest really.

Which is not to say that there are not other books worth adding. I use a crapload at my table.

But if I had to pick just one? Spell Compendium - all the way.

Point of order though: Orb of Force and Downdraft? Not real sure I would allow those two spells from Spell Compendium in your game. There are some issues with those two spells...

 

[Prophet2b]

PHB II
Unearthed Arcana

Those two definitely.

Cityscape

Cityscape? Really? I was really excited when that came out, but after flipping through it and then reading some reviews on it, I thought it looked pretty terrible.

Was I wrong? (If so, that'd be great to know, because I really want my next campaign to be heavily urban.)

Good to know! Thanks for the heads-up

 

[Deekin]

Magic Item Compendium.

Hand's Down the most useful books as of late. Brand new simpler treasure tables.

DMG II.

 

[blargney the second]

Magic Item Compendium and Green Ronin's Advanced Bestiary. (My god, it's full of templates!)

I'd like to throw these into the ring....

Heroes of Horror
Sandstorm
Frostbite
Unearth Arcana
Magic Item Compendium
Dungeonscape


PHB2 is more classes, Feats and info about PC background. Not sure this fits your criteria.
