[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 6411636, member: 13703"] What you describe of a new FRCS is exactly the sort of thing I'd want. The flavour of the 2E FR products, combined with the 3E production. I did like the format of the 3E FRCS as well. Weapons of Legacy had a heap of cool weapon and magic item histories that made life easier for a DM. Even if I hate the system in the book, that fluff is still really good and completely usable. Between the fluff for created items and explaining rules of how to create an item yourself I think you could easily fill out a book. I'd be keep to see an Unearthed Arcana again. That's one of my favourite 3.xE books. However, from what I have heard about the 5E DMG, it sounds like that may cover some of the territory Unearthered Arcana previously did. I love my Encyclopedia Magic set. However, many of the items in it were really unbalanced and sometimes the cost varied significantly for items that did basically the same thing but were published in different books (or in Dragon Magazine). I'd personally be happy with something similar to the 3E Magic Item Compendium. That book has a lot of fun magic items. Something like that, but even bigger, for 5E would be awesome. I'd love to see Dungeon Magazine come back. I'd even accept just a digital version of it, so long as it was compiled into montly PDFs. I wasn't thinking of WotC re-printing products they've done before. I was thinking more along the lines of what books it would be cool for them to have another go at. In some cases, such as the Weapons of Legacy book, I'd want them to chuck out most of the stuff they did previously, but keep the core concept (weapons that get more powerful as your character does) and start from scratch. In other cases, such as the World Builder's Guidebook, most of what they did was pretty awesome. However, it was made over 20 years ago, so it could do with some updating and expanding. [/QUOTE]
