Does it include alternative core classes ala Monte Cook or the Mercenaries book by AEG?It is indeed fully 3.5, and has been written by Ian Sturrock who has done a superb job of expanding the Ranger and giving a wealth of new options.  We stayed away from the alternative core classes, as most people seem to treat them as 'unofficial', though you will find many of the options and abilities are just as easily applicable to them as to WotC's version.>>>Ultimate Prestige Classes II: What way does this differ from the first one? There seemed to be some editing issues with the first one that actually added some errors on at least one PrC. Has the layout/art improved or same pattern?Yes, yes and yes.  Overall, people seemed to be very much taken with the first volume - this one will blow them away.  This was the first book by our new writer, Adrian Bott, and as well as hunting down the very best in OGC, he has also created some _awesome_ new classes that you will actually _want_ to take (you know that problem with prestige classes?).  He has rewritten every single OGC class, ironed out any (ahem) wrinkles and updated it for 3.5.  This volume is the bee's knees. . .>>>The Book of Strongholds & Dynasties: Similiar to Atlas' recent book? Something else?A 256 hardback, and the first of the Classic Play series, this is the definitive book for anyone seeking to claim land, build a fortress (with special attention paid for those who like high fantasy) and run a dominion.  Also features V2 of the OMCS.>>>Encyclopaedia Arcane: Tomes & Libraries: Now this should be interesting. Building on the wizard not by some type of magic, but by his materials. Is this going the Power Components route of Philip Reed or something completely different?No, something different - though we have EA Components & Foci on the way too.  Basically, this book takes a good long hard look at how Wizards store their spells and arcane knowledge, perform research and deal with matters arcane that go far beyond spellcasting and magic item creation.  Also by new writer, Adrian Bott, someone to watch out for in our stable. . .>>>The Quintessential Halfling: Uh, halflings. Yeah. Should push this one back to 2004 Jan so that those hobbit freaks can get their fix. Heh  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  Had to be done, and we have resisted making it half the size of the other Quintessentials. . .>>>The Slayer's Guide to Demons: Is this going to be another 128 page big boy or bigger?128 pages  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />>>>The High Frontier: Too vague a name to even know what system or setting. Could be for Slaine, B5 or standard d20. Potential though. I remember the Sun & Scale Grypon's Legacy tried to do something like this.For Armageddon 2089, takes the Armageddon War into low orbit and beyond. . .>>>Book of Dragons: ?Does what it says on the cover  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  Also part of the Classic PLay series, this book has been done by Gareth Hanrahan and is _the_ definitive source for dragons.  I'll provide some more details at a later date.>>>D20 Cyberpunk: ?A complete roleplaying game, for all your cyberpunk adventures.>>>The Quintessential Half-Orc: Ah, now here's another puppy I've been curious to see. It'll be interesting to see how it fares against previous Q books. After this one, are there any other Q's on the series? Still haven't seen the humans and I'd love to see one on half-dragons or something along those lines of Bastards & Bloodlines.Yup, Humans are on the way  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Hope that helps!</blockquote>
