Traveller T20 (core system)
Traveller's Guidebook playtest files (enhanced chargen)
d20 Modern (creatures and odds & ends)
Grim Tales (some Action Point options)
BESM d20 (a really weird creature build)

I rarely do full-blown d20 anymore unless it's T20, but I still find that I can do anything with only four books: Mod, GT, BESMd20, & T20.

With all of the various OGL games for specific purposes (C&C, M&M2e, etc.) and Indie/Small-press games, my days as a d20-tinkerer are almost at an end.

Interesting idea. I know I just posted (essentially) the same thing on another thread, but I'll bite:

3.0 PHB
3.0 DMG
Toolbox from AEG (Get this book. Seriously. I don't think I even referred to it once Tuesday, but I don't run a game without it, anymore.
Wilds from AEG (Expanded cold/frostbite/hypothermia rules)
Ultimate Equipment Guide from Mongoose Publishing (cold weather equipment - horse blankets, tarps, etc.)
1e Wilderness Survival Guide (Day-to-day weather tables)

3.0 MMI (Present, not used.)
MMII (Ditto.)
Monsters of Faerun

FRCS 3.0 (Bare bones of the town of Wheloon, which the PCs set out from, setting in general)
Volo's Guide to Cormyr (Fleshing out of same)

PCs were generated using the 3.0 PC class guidebooks; spells, items, and skills from Song and Silence in particular were used this session. (The party bard has a rival in another party - "Rando the Magnificent" - and they had a "bard-off.") (Rando won with a dirty limerick.)

And (for reference / ideas on equinox rites for the church of Chauntea):
Paganism by Joyce Higginbotham (Llewellyn Publications)

Hmmm...interesting...what *did* I use last weekend?

1e DMG*, 1e PH, 1e Unearthed Arcana, 1e Fiend Folio
Home-made spell books, Cleric* and MU*
My "Red Book"*, a binder of various tables, notes, etc. for DM eyes only
The "Blue Book"*, which is my base character, rule, and world guide in a binder

* - these get used pretty much every session without fail.

During the game session (Risus: Illuminati University): None. We used each player had an index card, a pen, and a pool of dice. I had two NPCs printed and winged the rest.

Last D&D session: Rules Cyclopedia and B 1-9.
