Races of Destiny: Buying/Bought?

[Krug]

So did you get Races of Destiny?

 

[Thanee]

I'm not sure yet.

But, yeah, I probably will eventually... it looks better than Races of Stone at least.

Bye
Thanee

 

[Haloq Jakar]

I did unfortunately

I would have to say that Races of Stone was better IMHO. The Races books are not up to the "Complete" series as far as overall usefullness.

 

[Crothian]

I have no intention of getting it unless I happen to find it for at least half off

 

[Dark Psion]

Yes, but very disapointed in it.

It was supposed to be,

A new sourcebook detailing humans, half-breeds, and exotic almost-human races for the D&D game.

Races of Destiny provides Dungeons & Dragons players with an in-depth look at humans, half-orcs, half-elves, and other "almost human" exotic races that populate the D&D world. Often more strange or bizarre than completely distinct races, these half-races showcase the unusual combinations of abilities and cultures possible in a fantasy setting. This sourcebook includes brand new races, new rules, feats, spells, and magic

items attuned to each race. The book contains material for players and DMs alike, including new prestige classes, rules for interaction between races, and a wealth of cultural information.

But instead it is the Complete book of Illumians.

 

[Hand of Evil]

No, just don't see the need.

 

[Lord Rasputin]

Nope. No plans either. Couple of neat prestige classes and feats, but nothing coherent. I really liked the city system, but really, Wizards should have an Urban Survival Guide. The return of the survival guides could replace the Frostburn-type stuff, which is selling slowly.

 

[Pants]

Nope, don't really want any 'generic' non-setting specific race-style books. That and it looks boring.

Not interested.

 

[Wombat]

No need, no desire. I have picked up none of the other "Races" books and have not felt a loss that way. I think I'll continue in the same pattern.

 

[Starglim]

So far I find no use or interest in anything that I've seen previewed for this book. I very much disagree with its stated concepts of the place of non-humans in a campaign.

I agree with the earlier poster that an urban survival guide would be handy.
