[QUOTE="Drow Jones, post: 1320607, member: 11907"] Well this is going to be disappointingly long list. I'm a combination of a D&D/d20 -nut and a mad collector, which has made me buy many things on a whim. Oh well... :o Books that I really regret buying: Deities & Demigods -- I wanted rules on how to create stats for gods. I never found them. WotC Splatbooks -- For all the reasons already mentioned. Arms & Equipment Guide -- Uninspired. I will get some use out of it, but I was very disappointed. Stronghold Builder's Guidebook -- I'll never need this one. Hero Builder's Guidebook -- Why do I keep doing this to my wallet? Psionics Handbook -- Nothing against psionics as such. The mechanics were quite unbalanced though. I hope the 3.5 update fixes this. d20 Wheel of Time RPG -- Hate the setting. I was looking for interesting mechanics. d20 Star Wars 1st ed. -- They should have gotten it right the first time. I guess they were training for 3.5. Ravenloft d20 -- I don't know why I bought it. I didn't like the setting before, I don't like it now. Divine & Defeated -- Horrible mechanics. Ghelspad Gazetter Hollowfaust Mithril: City of Golem -- Scarred Lands wasn't my setting after all. However, the above products are ok for those who like SL. Encyclopaedia Arcane - Battle Magic Encyclopaedia Arcane - Necromancy -- Why Mongoose publishing cannot bother to learn the d20 rules? Mythic Races -- I have gotten absolutely nothing useful out of this book yet. Maybe some day... Books that I love: 3.5 core books -- Overall a great update with minor wrinkles here and there. I can iron them out. FRCS Magic of Faerun Races of Faerun -- I like the Realms... well *my* Realms. ;) Relics & Rituals -- I love the ideas and the tone of the book. I can fix the mechanics with minimal effort. Book of Eldritch Might I & II Book of Divine Might -- I like Monte's stuff. Most of his spells and Prestige classes are great. The alignement variant in BoDM is very nice. - DJ [/QUOTE]
