What are You Looking Forward To?

-- Anything from Paradigm pretty much makes it into my library
-- d20 Modern
-- Slaine RPG (I LOVE Celtic settings)

Worth taking a look, possibly to buy:
-- Tome of Vile Darkness - let's see just how dark it can really be
-- Epic Level Handbook - just for curiosity
-- Bluffside - really calls my attention

There may be more, but you don't need to hear it all. :)

The Book of Vile Darkness ( think I will love this one)
The End (d20)
Everquest d20 (and the city book of Freeport-not to be confused with GRs Freeport which I have and think is great)
D20 Modern
More Spycraft stuff
More d20 Rokugan stuff
More Dragonstar Stuff

I'm particularly looking forward to Monster Manual II, The Tome of Horrors, and each of the upcoming Slayer's Guides. THe Book of Challenges looks pretty good, as well.

-The Spycraft Modern Arms Guide (crunchy weapons goodness)
-Any other Spycraft books
-D20 Modern (I don't know if it will be compatible with Spycraft, but it will probably become the standard for modern roleplaying, like it or not)
-ELH
-Book of Vile Darkness
-Chainmail Kilsek (Drow) faction box

* E-Tools - What can I say? I'm a computer guy. I can't wait to start mucking around with the DB.
* d20 Modern - Spycraft/Shadowforce Archer is awesome. I hope this lives up to my expectations. Also, I really liked Shadowchasers and the Genetech preview...
* Epic Level Handbook - I've never had a game system that handled higher level play well. I hope this does it.
* Book of Vile Darkness - Two words: Monte Cook
* The Banewarrens - Monte again, and Ptolus!
* Requiem For a God - More Monte...
* Blah-Blah's Register - Monte and SKR? Too cool...
* Forgotten Realms: The Silver Marches - I am running a FR game right now, and conviently, the PCs are in the Silver Marches.

My top ten most anticipated new gaming releases:

My top ten most anticipated new gaming releases:
by Matt the Bastard DM

The new edition of the Tekumel: Empire of the Petal Throne RPG by Guardians of Order (GOO) is my most anticipated release of the year. I LOVE all things Tekumel and I'm hoping this product will present a simple, complete rules set to run a campaign there. I think WOTC should beg M.A.R. Barker to work with them and put out Tekumel materials. If WOTC is looking at a new setting, I wish they'd consider Tekumel. It is the most detailed and complete culture I've ever seen in an RPG. Also, it is not based on western culture (which has been done to death in Greyhawk, Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms, Mystarra, etc...) and I'm sick of flavorless "standard fantasy" worlds.
Any new issue of Dungeon/Polyhedron magazine is second. I love the new minigames in polyhedron (I hope dead settings can be redone this way) and Dungeon is absolutely the best value per dollar in the gaming industry.
"City of Brass" and "Wrath of Orcus" modules from necromancer games are third & fourth because I love the "old-school" feel.
"City State of the Invincible Overlord" by Judges Guild (converted to 3E) is fifth--again because of the "old-school feel". This is another setting WOTC should consider publishing. It would go especially well with the "Book of Vile Darkness"
Book of Vile Darkness is the sixth of my list because I'm hoping it will finally present good price and demographic type information for slaving, whoring, etc... I feel these darker elements enrich a campaign, whether the players are fighting against them or perpetrating them.
The City of the Spider Queen is seventh, because I'm planning an underdark campaign using all the material from 1st-3rd edition I can get my hands on and culminating with "Queen of the Demonweb Pits"
The Epic Level handbook is eighth because my players like high-level gaming and I'd like a resource that makes such campaigns more manageable--particularly, giving me ideas of how to keep the players focused on the same goals rather than scattering to the four winds.
Mystic Triads "Magic Places" is ninth because the premise is unique--it hasn't been done before (at least not full scale).
WOTC's Book of Challenges is tenth because it's like the old "book of lairs"--stuff that's easy to drop in to a campaign.
 

Things I'm waiting for:

1. Nyambe: African Adventures by Atlas. I downloaded the original version months ago and I can't wait to see a full-blown version in print.

2. Swashbuckling Adventures/7th Sea d20 by AEG. I'm not really a huge fan of 7th Sea itself, but if this stuff is half as good as OA/Rokugan, I'm in.

3. Anything Spycraft by AEG. I kinda liked the loose classes in the d20Modern preview in Dungeon (Shadowchasers). However, Spycraft has really raised the bar for what WotC will have to show me in d20Modern to impress me.

4. WotC's mystery one-off setting. It's got me curious.

5. EverQuest d20 by S&SS. Never played EverQuest, but more races, monsters, and possibly alternate magic systems will certainly get me to look at it.


Missing in Action:

Arabian Adventures/Legend of the Burning Sands by WotC/AEG. I saw a message from Ryan Dancey somewhere saying they already had a huge setting bible ready before the IP rights got sold back. Where is this one? It's a no-brainer. Of course, it's not like AEG is really good about keeping us informed on upcoming products more than a week or two out.
