[QUOTE="graves3141, post: 6694439, member: 84351"] A new monster book would be nice. They should call it the Fiend Folio instead of Monster Manual II... that will help distinguish it from the core Monster Manual. Also, I would like to see the two survival guide books (DSG and WSG) combined into one environmental supplement book. 3E had Stormwrack, Frostburn, Sandstorm, etc... I always felt that just one quality book covering multiple environments would have been better. A new Manual of the Planes would be great, although I don't think we'll see it anytime soon. If they start making planar adventures, we're more likely to see something like a "Adventurer's Guide to the Planes" or something that fits along side the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide. At least it would be something though. An Unearthed Arcana book would also be great. The 3E version of this book was really awesome with tons of great variant ideas. I think a 5E version would be very welcomed by many people and could give us the options we're looking for in 5E. For me, this is preferable to a whole series of "Complete" books like we got in past editions. Deities & Demigods would be nice too, but I think this book is even less likely to be produced than the previous ones I mentioned. WotC is more likely to spread out the Gods across multiple source books like Adventurer's Guide books instead of putting a bunch of them all in one place. Still, a well done version would be cool to have. However, if WotC's goal is to sell a minimum of 100K copies of every book it produces, don't expect a bunch of supplements anytime soon. [/QUOTE]
