That book is critical, IMHO. Other books are less critical, but just as good.My top 5 books for Kalamar, besides the core book and Players Primer, are:(1) The Players Guide(2) The Villains Design Handbook (just ignore antifeats- that was Wizard's doing, not Kenzer)(3) Goods and Gear (4) Strength and Honor: The Hobgoblins of Tellene(5) Friend and Foe: The Gnomes and Kobolds of Tellene*I also love the Orc book Fury in the Wastelands*, and let's face it: they finally did Drow that aren't cliched. If you can actually find a copy at your FLAGS, get the sea/pirate book Salt and Sea Dogs. That'd be on my top 5 list, except that it's out of print and thus might be hard to come by. But it's fantastic.I won't tell you why Kalamar is so good to me. Like any setting, it's all down to preference and opinion. Personally, Kalamar is my favorite game setting to date. I've been gaming for 22 years this year and I haven't found a fantasy setting I liked more.Back to lurking...-=Grim=-*Finally, fleshed out Kobolds and Orcs.</blockquote>
