[QUOTE="Morbog of Ghetto D, post: 2068976, member: 24252"] [b]lil Miskittn/lil mis kim[/b] Yo, In support of my fellow DM's opinions... YES DMG is esential....need cash? See if you can hit up up your players... No players? Beg, Borrow, Steel. But get a DMG. EBAY etc....some fools even scan all the pages of the core books into PDF's.. Paladin Man says, "Egads ! Deplorable!..Illegal!....and against all that is good and lawful!" I'd recommend Dungeon, and Dungeon back issues...(cheaper). You can buy the whole campaign "shackeld city" ... All the monsters and encounters are already done.. no work for you....read and play... Many Game Stores will have current and some back issues. Plop it down anywhere, there are developed NPCs and cool maps! There are even instructions for decreasing the CRs of encounters.--Woohoo Im a "book nut" so I buy alot of supliments... Always read reviews and ask other players before plopping down coin. NOTE: You can down load most of the rule changes between 3.0 and 3.5 on WOTC..so buying the the 3.0 books is a good bargain Old 2nd edition AD&D products can be found in a box near the garbage can @ almost every game store...Buy that stuff, convert to 3.5 and play... (The store near my house has a in the box, original plastic Greyhawk Wars....Somewhere a gaming geek is breathing heavy) Should Buys- DMG 3.5 PHB...3.5/3.0 Monster Manual 3.5 preferably /3.0 This provides "guidelines" for making your own monsters.. Non esentials -rated 1-5 stars NOTE Anything by Monte Cooke is "Mana from Heaven" Book of Vile Darkness -5 stars -very dark,dsiturbing, non for the young or low Fort Saves Exhakted Deeds-4 Stars-not as good as BVD, but a good complement to BVD Libris Mortis-5 Stars, matched with BVD and you can kiss your mortal soul good bye. Dragonomicon-4 stars. really nice. Necromancer Games products are "really cool" "tome of Horrors II"-5-stars- monsters for killing My players are pretty familar with "standard" D&D monsters so alternate monster manual suplliments help me "spice it up" "Living Fantasy"-by G. Gyax 4 stars-was an excellent resource, and I gleened alot. really helps campaign/world building. There is a too muchof "cut-and-paste" entries...though.. (trolllord) Hi The Ravenloft 3.00 DMG has great information and tips for running a campaign. "Toolbox" AEG- 5 stars-Helpful references for quick campaign elements. "monsternomicon"-really cool monsters adaptable to non-gun poweder settings. Note: Manual of the Planes is a "good" reference, but a basic understanding of the planes is in the DMG,..Also buy the 3.0 version to save cash....Planes is planes! Dont Buy-Complete Warrior, WOTC Arms and Equipment, Unearthed Arcana WOTC. DUDE, WHEN ALL THE WOTC STORES CLOSED IN MICHIGAN I SCOREd TONS OF GAMING STUFF DIRT CHEAP....Nah Nah nah nah Nah Nah-ha ha ha ha ha hah! I was like acrack fiend on "free crack Day" Good Stuff Guideline AEG-Alderac- Most suplliments are really Good Kenzer & Co- Kingdoms of Kalimar setting is really well done, though needs better organization Malhavoc press-Great Products, Solid Gold Necromancer Games-Every purchase has been Awesome! No complaints Iron Kingdoms-Nice products....Very slow to churn out product. Very focused on miniature combat- Suppliments I use every game session AEG "Toolbox" Monster manual DMG PHB :) :cool: :heh: Is all good.. [/QUOTE]
