The book you were all excited to get... and now gathering dust...

Which book were you eager to get, only to have it gathering dust in some murky corner of your collection?

Wheel of Time d20. Although I'm not a fan of the books, I am a fan of the world and was looking forward to DM ing in it. Unhappily I couldn't find anyone to play with

D20 Farscape.
A very disappointing book - the pictures were nice, the idea was great, but the execution - bad.

Here's a hint: it has deities in it - AND demigods!

Again with the bashing, sheesh!

I wasn't that disappointed, the original was the same deal.

I just don't see how every didn't SEE that it would be
stat blocks for Gawds, isn't that what the original was about?
(Minus the Cthulhu/Melnibonean goodness)

And my book for this category would be Spycraft.

If we are talking any RPG, probably Riddle of Steel. I love the game, was really pumped about it. Couldn't find a single person who would be willing to play it.

D20? Probably Dragonstar. I've got to run it for a single session, and that's it... But darn if I wasn't excited to get it.

The Original was a Supplement. Supplement IV Gods, Demigods, and Heroes. and it had Elric and Conan, but lacked Hastur.

read the foreword by Tim Kask (1976) to understand why they statted out the gawds.

I get lots of use out of my Spycraft book. Ironic. *grin*
