• NOW LIVE! Into the Woods--new character species, eerie monsters, and haunting villains to populate the woodlands of your D&D games.

What books did you use last session?

Just starting a new game with my 2 youngest siblings, used AU (for char creation), the Soulknife preview, the Psionics SRD, and the MM 3.0. And a whiteboard for a map and notes (VERY useful!).

For my regular game, I used a map from map-a-week, the 3.0 MM, AU, the 3.0 DMG, the Draconomicon, and the aforementioned whiteboard (now a permanent fixture).

Today's session we used...

The Core Books

Tome & Blood

Portable Hole Full of Beer (this product contains no alcohol)

The Book of the Righteous

Relics & Rituals, both I and II

From Stone to Steel

...it was kinda an odd session...
 

Last game I ran, I used:

3.5 core books
Tome of Horrors
Cydra Player's Guide (my homebrewed campaign book)

:) Low-level party's turn.

The last game I played in, on the other hand, I used:

3.5 core books (all 3)
Tome and Blood (spells & item)
Manual of the Planes (spells)
Cydra Player's Guide (spells)

Hm- not too much last time. When I run the epic party, it's a considerably longer list.
 

For my session today I used:

The three core 3.0 books
Creature Catalogue II - for Ioun Beholder
Traps and Treachery I & II - for traps... oddly enough. ;)
Psionics Handbook - For the psychic warrior in our group
Mindscapes - Because I'm using that system for psionic combat and for a few powers
Magic of Faerun - for items

And... that's it I think. :) It was a rather crazy trap-heavy dungeon crawl and a whole ton of fun.
 

Last session, besides the three core books, I used:

Tome and Blood - one sorcerer character has levels as an elementalist, and she uses several spells from that book

Defenders of the Faith - another character (a cleric) has levels as a contemplative, and he uses several spells from that book (plus, one of his domains is Glory, also from that book)

Draconomicon - I beefed up a Wizards free adventure ("Start at the End"), and this book allowed me to grab full stats for an older blue dragon than the adventure called for with no muss, no fuss

While technically not a book, I suppose I should count "Start at the End" as a gaming resource as well
