[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 3117908, member: 518"] The switch over to 3.5 I mean. I've been pretty absent from these forums for the last coupla years and maybe this has been discussed to death so I apologize if it has. I'm just curious. I came into a situation where I sold off nearly all my gaming collection (few hundred books, including all my old pre AD&D and AD&D items), and when it came down to whether to keep my 3.5 core books (which I bought, but never used),or my core 3.0 books, I ended up for a few reasons keeping my 3.0 core books and a handful of the early 3.0 releases (modules mostly). The main reasons I kept my 3.0 books is that I had more 3.0 supplemental material to choose from, there is a ton of it still on the new/used market should I want to purchase some in the future, and I'll be running a very "basic" game so compatibility with new products won't be a huge issue as the 3.0/3.5 market has long since veered off from my tastes/needs (old school/style gamer here: For the most part the core books have all the crunch/options I'll need/want). I know 3.5 "fixed" some things, but from my reading 3.5 seemed to be mainly just a better/clearer presentation than 3.0. So did you switch over? If so, why? If not, why? or do you use a combination of the two? Thanks in advance! :) P.S. was there ever a second printing of the 3.0 DMG, and MM? I do have the 2nd print 3.0 PHB. [/QUOTE]
