[QUOTE="Boss, post: 2408586, member: 1247"] Greetings Scott, First allow me to say that I love the new D20 version of Talislanta. I have been a long time follower of the game, but mostly to bring ideas into my home brew. I love the new magic system and plan to incorporate that into the game I am currently running. Congrats again on bringing a wonderful world to the D20 genre. Now for the nitpicking. I have only glanced through the Menagerie very quickly, as I just purchased it from Drivethrurpg a few moments ago, but I already have problems. Namely, there is not an index and there are no bookmarks for the pdf. Plus all of the D20 material is thrown in as an appendix to the book. Now I realize that it would have been a major undertaking to add the d20 material into the descriptions of the creatures, especially as the book had already been put out for 4th edition, but without any sort of bookmark or index to look at, I had to go through it page by page on the laptop to find where the appendix started, page 208 out of 257. This may not seem like a big deal, but I don't want to print out the book, I like having it to look at on my laptop when I game. Going back and forth between an entry on one page, then having to scan page by page to find it's D20 stats is extremely unwieldy. Before I can even think about using this in a game, I am going to have to create the bookmarks myself, and, as I paid $20 for the book, this does not make me very happy or impressed with this product. Sorry, I didn't mean to go on a rant there, I actually intended to make a suggestion, but as I looked at it more and had to scan back and forth, it got the better of me. To be honest, I am happy with the game itself and how you handled the D20 mechanics. R. Scott Roberts [/QUOTE]
