My local shop had not even heard of the book yet. Shiver me timbers.

I agree with you on the races in "Sandstorm" and, arguably, for "Frostburn," but I disagree with the new races in "Stormwrack." The MM aquatic races aren't suitable for player characters -- "my merman flops his way down the hall of the dungeon" -- other than aquatic elves, and not everyone wants to BE an elf.atom crash said:I'm not sure I'm encouraged/excited about the contents of Stormwrack, based on the preview of the darfellens, a humanoid race that looks like a killer whale. Do we really need a new exotic playable race in each book? Why not just more in-depth coverage of the stuff we already have? OK, so aquatic elves are in there (as it should be), but why not focus on sahaugin, locathah and merfolk rather than introduce more races?
The Grumpy Celt said:Yeah, it is Visions. Visions the game shop, not Visions the Stripper Bar. And they are going through a change in managment, so not everyone there may know what is and is not ordered. So maybe they will get a copy of Maelstrom.
