[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 3090927, member: 29112"] I've not played (or run) Freeport, but I agree with Zweihander on Complete Adventurer, given what I've heard about the setting. I also think it is the best of the 'Complete's - and most reviews appear to agree with me there. The skills section (which expands on skill use a bit), many of the feats, some spells, some equipment, and possibly the Ninja class (renamed or not) - among other things - might be particularly relevant. I'm not sure when Cityscape is coming out, but it can't be too far away -- just checked: November :\. That would be a natural choice, of course. I quite like FFG's Cityworks. It's OOP, but still available here and there. Bastion's $5 (USD) sale is still on, for a short while. There are at least a couple among what's left that might be useful, and I imagine those books will only become harder to find, and more expensive, past Saturday-ish. International shipping would be a bit steep if you only got a book or two, but it works out quite fair if you get about 4 to 5+. Guildcraft leaps out as a likely candidate. If you don't have it, or some sort of equivalent, I throughly recommend Hot Pursuit (and HP: On Foot), by Adamant Entertainment. I'm not sure, but I heard they're/it's in print now. . .? Either way, the PDFs are well worth it, IMO. Foul Locales: Urban Blight is likewise nifty, but it might be redundant if Freeport is nicely detailed and adaptable. Hm, that's about all I can think of right now. I'm also not sure what you have, what you don't have, stuff like that. [/QUOTE]
