[QUOTE="Jackinthegreen, post: 5715587, member: 6678119"] I'm definitely sure a full repository doesn't exist in one consolidated document. One reason is WotC wants things to be modular and a tome of the assorted books would most assuredly not be modular or portable. It would also be a major pain organizing and updating stuff. Just for kicks and giggles, I count at least 54 3.5 books. IF we figure each one costs $20, then that's $1,080. I'm quite sure there are more, plus various online things. If we say each book has 200 pages then we're looking at over 10,000 pages total. Including Dragon and Dungeon magazines would take up another 2,000 to 3,000 pages of stuff. For simplicity, let's say it's 15,000 pages. Such a book would probably weigh at least 20 pounds. Such a PDF would be at least a gigabyte, and probably 2 or more. At least data storage isn't hard these days. I'd love a full compilation of everything, but needless to say it would be quite an undertaking. [/QUOTE]
