I thought so too- and was planning to get one for every person in my group..
Until I saw it had traps for T&T in it. Ugh. I don't want the players to see that.
Oh well.

You could always just rip those pages out and label them "Player's Handout #x." Then after the trap slaughters half the party you could say "you see a strange diagram lying on the floor just on the other side of where the trap was triggered . . ."

Does FFG have anything else going on for Dragonstar? Or is MEG taking over on that?
Formal welcome
Hi all,
I didn't really get to welcome Rob properly the last time we met. Welcome, Rob!
Just for the record, everybody, some of us do spell our Wills with both Ls.
So, Rob ... what'll your first book be at the helm of the slimmer, faster half of the L&L line?

Re: Formal welcome
Well, coming soon will be Twisted Lore, a combination of my and Kevin's captaining skills. That's going to have new shapechangers, oozes, and aberrations. I felt a bit daunted following in the footsteps of mind flayers and beholders, but I think we did pretty well. The vile, in particular . . . blegh. It's really, really gross. I'll post it stats here when we're a little closer to pub date.
After that I've got Giant Lore (should be way fun . . . I've been playing in a Greyhawk campaign in Geoff, recently, which is overrun by the buggers) and a new line of mini-games: Horizon.

Hi Rob! Welcome! Let the suggestions begin:
See your post quoted above? That looks suspiciously like a ( *gasp!* ) DETAILED TABLE OF CONTENTS
Hoody Hoo! The TOC from SoI ( School of Illusion ) on page 2 was the best one I have seen from Fantasy Flight yet, and I'm hoping to see the trend continue.
Arcane School thoughts:
I love the idea of adding the "visual guide to illusions" along with the leveled spell lists, but the icons are really too small for me to use effectively.
I'd like to see you include spells from "Spells & Spellcraft" in these lists too. I know that pervading thinking is to have the book stand alone with the PHB, but how about revisiting this? I have very much appreciated Monte Cook referring to earlier BoEM books in his works.
Add MORE Magic Items please! ( MUCH MORE ! )
How about adding new familiars appropriate to the school? I liked the Shadowmancer's companion, but I mean something that might be available to other disciplines too.
Please avoid adding Prestige Class Feature abilities that directly copy other non-arcane class abilities. Multiclassing acheives this better.
General thoughts:
I'm not sure if you have responsibility or input regarding the art, but I have really enjoyed the high quality of art in FFG's recent books, and hope to see it continue!
Value: so far much less than the Hardcovers. I passed on buying Necromantic Lore because of the price. Even so, I'll probably buy more of them than the Arcane School books. At the current price/content ratio, I just don't feel like I need to collect them all. How about $17.95 for 96 pages? I could do that.
Thanks for asking,
BFG
