What is the best d20 book no one talks about?

[DaveMage]

I'll add another:

Dungeons of Doom (Green Ronin)

It inspires me to DM just flipping through it.

 

[TerraDave]

Psychic's Handbook by Green Ronin. I'm a sucker for skill-based magic.

I'm sure there are more, but for some reason I'm at a loss...

Yes, a good one, but I have seen it talked about, here and there...

I have also seen talked about on Enworld (and in some cases bought based on that...)

Book of Righteous (so many times)
Testament (which is the best book on the thread so far)
Monsternomnicon
The Second World Sourcebook (a Psion fave)
Nyambe
Beyond Countless Doorways (though I could read more on that)
Dynasties & Demagogues (many times, though not lately)
Skull and Bones

For a good obscure book:

From Stone to Steel...but wait I read about that on Enworld too. Maybe I just read to much Enworld

Anither hearty vote for Goods and Gear: the Ultimate Adventurer's Guide


Best weapons, equipment, stuff book there is out there, and no, I don't play Kalamar - it's plenty generic for any system.

 

[Greylock]

Ancient Kingdoms: Mesopotamia. The presents a mini-campaign setting with a good-sixed module in one. The rules for bronze-age equipment are short & sweet, as are those for new human sub-races and new deities.

Can anyone tell me more about this one? Publisher and all, maybe a linky?

Streets of Silver

Been looking through this one the last few days, and it does have a lot to recommend it. Alsih2o lent me Streets of Silver and Pirates! (Living Imagination, Inc) recently and I devoured the latter in an hour or so. When I got to the part where they statted out Captain Peter Blood it was love at first sight.

 

[Psion]

Streets of Silver.

Second World Sourcebook

Two good ones, though I thought I talked about the latter too much for it to be "not talked about".

 

[Soel]

Not spoken of enough:

Denizens of Avadnu (Inner Circle Games) - great monster book! Campaign pdf coming soon...

Dark Legacies Player's Guide (Red Spire Press) - very cool and harsh setting; campaign book coming soon...

Arms and Armor 3.5 (Bastion Press) - a third vote for this one (so maybe its not overlooked after all...)

Liber Bestarius (Eden Studios) - wish they still did some fantasy d20...

Many thanks, sir.

Denizens of Avadnu (Inner Circle Games) - great monster book! Campaign pdf coming soon...

My vote also goes to Denizens of Avadnu. I've heard a few people talk about it here at EN World, but didn't pay much attention. I thought, "Oh, just another colorful monster book." But it's really, really good with TONS of color artwork and excellent encounter suggestions. The monsters are great inspiration for starting whole new adventures!

That's why we've decided to carry it at Indie Press Revolution.
