The Dragon Compendium

[Erik Mona]

The book clings pretty tightly to the core rules. There are no psionics articles included, for example, and there are no references to the races from the Complete books (although, as stated above, there are several new races).

I'm not 100% sure which version of the stat blocks we used, as that's the last chapter I need to proof, and I haven't seen the final version yet.

Monster Manual version, hopefully.

So when do we get some more tidbits? Must have more news!

And for the PrCs, are they designed as more recent ones with sections on entering the PrC, playing the PrC, the PrC in the world, Lore for the PrC, etc...

I was hoping we might see the Rakasta article (around Dragon #247 or so). That's campaign specific, for the most part, so I guess I can see why it wasn't used.

Still, I'm highly looking forward to this book. And I hope to see that Oriental compilation!

And psionics, campaign classics, etc. etc.

The same campaign as lupins, which were used. I guess they just didn't want to double dip on Mystara animalman races.

Have there been any more previews/trailers, etc... of the book yet?

Unfortunately, Paizo is charging an arm and a leg for overseas shipping, so it looks like I won't be buying this book.

If the Bleeder and Death Kiss are the same beholder, different names, then why did Paizo publish it in Dragon Compendium? Death Kisses are already in Lords of Madness. :\

Unless, of course, they made the Bleeder a completely unique beholder, in which I will be very happy indeed. Kinda pointless to present a baddie WotC already did in a product half a year ago.
