[QUOTE="Connorsrpg, post: 2431665, member: 19265"] Well there is a good question. I guess other threads have already done this re the lines from WotC already in production. I know there was a huge one on what monster book should be next. For me I would like to see: Orcs: I know some are sick of them, but I love the staple humanoids of the game and a whole book on them would suit me fine :) Goblinoids too. I guess several would have to be combined into a book of evil humanoids with a catchier title ;) Races of the [insert own adjective here] Monstrous Humanoids (reptillian): this would be cool. Kobolds, lizardfolk and the resurfacing of several subtypes: sligs were an old favourite. I certainly would like to see the setting/terrain books continue: Swamps, more importantly Forests would be cool. A whole book on cities would be cool too. Some of the rules in DMG II are what I am after. Moving through crowds, trailing, chasing, random shops etc I still see an easy couple of books out of law and chaos. Well, what better way to spice up the idea than with a couple of cool themed books. Law and chaos play a greater role, as each are weapon properties needed to overcome DR. So the Lawful Martial Strike etc are options. I also feel the need to push Law and Chaos, Good and Evil (especially) get a fair deal. Such a Law book could really add to characters such as Paladins & Monks. Chaos could do the same for Rogues and others. I am not sure I would go down that path, but each are sound themes. Do people prefer pairings like Kingdoms of Kalamar do? I kind of like the one central theme. On the Complete series, I felt Arms & Equipment fell into that same problem. Parts of it would have been better divied up into more sound themed books. And what are people's thoughts on them being a PHB II instead? [/QUOTE]
