New WotC Product: The Complete Warrior

[Drakron]

With lead us to TSR errors with made TSR to be in economical dire straits.

What WotC is going to release will be more feats and PtC, many will be just reprints.

We already have tons of feats and PtC and WotC will enter late into the "class books", meaning it ends up being a low sale books that will cost WotC money intead of giving then money.

My initial cynical reaction was, "Oh, goody, a pricey hardcover book with revised material from S&F and other 3.0e books, and a few new things. What a surprise. So glad the focus is 'on providing new material.' Guess we'll see the Complete Arcanist, the Complete Holy Guy, and the Complete Sneaker in 2004. Wonder how much errata CW will need right off the bat."

I hope my cynical side is wrong, and I can smack it around with a Hammer of Mighty Fun for being such a punk. If not, though, I call dibs on "I Told You So."

Late?
You have heard of Sword and Fist, Defenders of the Faith, Tome and Blood, Song and Silence, and Masters of the Wild right?

As for the book, I honestly don't see a need for another Fighter book. Maybe when some info is released, I might be interested, but right now... meh.

Late as in "it was already been done".

There are a lot of PtC and feats running around, the only thing "the WotC fighter handbook" can have over the competition is being 3.5.

As for info ... its WotC, they have sheer horror over creating anything that remotely looks like flavor and when they actually do release some flavor text it will contradict something.

If you are looking for quality, avoid WotC ...

...and in other news from GAMA, THE SKY IS FALLING!!! RUN! RUN!

C'mon you guys. Until I started coming around these boards, I had never seen such a large group of people so anxious to object to something they had absolutely no details on.

We're starting to sound like a bunch of Lawful Neutral cultists around here. "...Anything new is bad. Anything new is bad. Anything new is bad. Anything new is bad. Anything new is bad..."

Can we at least wait until we know if it's recycled or all new material we're complaining about?

1. Keep working on that English.

2. Get ready to be called a troll, or maybe just mocked incessantly in the guise of being disagreed with.

Generally speaking, if it's not published by WotC, my DM won't allow it. Given that, I'm looking forward to any potential hardcover class books by Wizards.

As I have posted before after seeing what they were doing to the rules I said they would release a revised Psionics book, revised splat books, revised MMII, etc. since the old books were now incompatable and would require way to much errata. People said no, they have said that while Psionics would be revised that WotC had said the splatbooks were not going to be revised. Apparently we were both right since they are renaming the splatbooks so thay can rerelease them to be compatible with the new rules without breaking thier promise.

I don't mind WotC making money by releasing NEW material, but I will not buy into this charade of a marketing scheme. If they want to make money release things that I don't already own.

And yes I will mine the SRD for some things.

I have to say that I give a bit more weight to WotC books than 3rd party publishers.

Then again, it seems like some of the popular picks (Creature Collection, the Mongoose stuff) just isn't to my taste, so it may be a matter of who supplies my "style" of product rather than anything about the name.
