What products are good?

[blackshirt5]

Basically, I'm getting ready to order off of rpgnow and enworld, and I wanted to know what products are good from there. Specifically, I wanna order "The Complete Guide to Drow" POD(Print On Demand), and maybe a few others. What are some good monster books as well(I've already got MM1 and MM2, CC1, and CC2)?

Oh, and how long will it take for them to ship to me if I ordered them either today or tomorrow morning?

Hit the reviews - that's why they are there.

Alrighty then.

I have Liber Beastarius. It's a good monster book. Plus if you enjoy a focused look, you should pick up Legions of Hell and Armies of the Abyss.

Other stuff to consider: Relics and Rituals 1&2. Secret College of Necromancy, Book of the Righteous, Book of Vile Darkness, Skeryn's Register: Bonds of Magic (both Cabal and the Faithful). Also if you wait a bit, Book of Eldritch Might 3 will be coming out this week.

If you want another good all-around monster book, pick up Monsternomicon.

Other books I'd highly recommend are Book of the Righteous, Oriental Advantures and the Kalamar Campaign Setting. Oh, and Occult Lore by Penumbra.

Alright, I'm gonna order Legions of Hell, Armies of the Abyss, Monsternomicon, Creatures of Rokugan, Monsters of Faerun, and probably Tome of Horrors, after it becomes available on the ENWorld shop. Any other really good monster books?

 

[Nightfall]

Not for a while. Penumbra is doing a Beastiary but I believe that won't be out until 2003. I can't really think of any more...unless you want some Ravenloft monsters. Denizens of Darkness has some. Not sure if they'll fix for you or not.

OOH! Denizens of Darkness(and the core RAvenloft book) are also on the list. Plus Liber Beastarius, and after that, it looks to be all homebrewed creatures for awhile. Which is still all good, ya know? I've got like 60 pages of monsters that I've found out on the net.

Also, I've got Scarred Lands and FRCS, I will not buy the Kingdoms of Kalamar products though(I suffered through a campaign set in Kalamar, thank you very much), R&R 1 & 2, BoVD, D&DG, ELH, and many others.

Thanx for the input y'all!

 

[Nightfall]

Well I wish I could have been of more help.

Any other really good monster books?

Well, this heavily depends on what you consider a good monster book. I really love Minions:Rebirth, which is available as pdf now. Other people hate the book because of the art, and someone said it's just full of hairy animals . Nevertheless, I really like the art, and I find the monsters very good. They are more of the "normal" type, all described with the ecological niche they fill in, and plot hooks are given for each of them. I appreciate the book very much.
