Well, only when my checkbook can't take the hit. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />I'll generally pick up any product that I find terribly useful, and to be honest, that doesn't happen very often, not when you consider how many RPG products are out there. The main reason is because I tend to write a lot of my own material, such as monsters, templates, magic items, prestige classes, and feats.I'm not as prolific when it comes to spells though, so I'm more prone to buy a product that contains interesting material that pertains to them. I'm also pretty keen on campaign setting material, such as the FRCS and Silver Marches. I rarely ever purchase adventure modules though, as I'd rather make up my own adventures. Modules tend to be way to restrictive for me and end up being more work to adapt them to my games than its worth. City of the Spider Queen and The Demon God's Fane are the two most noteable exceptions.When it comes to monster products, I gotta tell ya', it's a very rare occasion indeed that I find even a few of them useful at all. The creature collection books from S&S are pretty interesting, but as a whole, I didn't find them gripping, so I never purchased them. The other problem with monster books is that it seems that many of them could have used a little more playtesting, such as CRs being off by a few digits, which could end up in a TPK if you're not careful.All that said, I'm a pretty big sucker for products put out by WotC, Monte Cook (not necessarily Malhovic Press in general), Mongoose, and Green Ronin. I think those are my favorite publishers.</blockquote>
