What's the next "Scape" book?

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

Nightscape? A sourcebook covering specifically nocturnal adventures and creatures? The ecology of vampires, specific feats for breaking-and-entering, thieves' guilds, incursions by the Plane of Shadow, etc.

That's a pretty solid idea, actually.

Alienscape - Environments tainted by the Far Realms (the name Farscape was rejected for some reason).
Fiendscape - Environments ruled and tainted by evil forces.
Skyscape - Cloud Palaces and Flying cities.
Spellscape - Environments blasted, tainted, or formed by magic. From Mordor to the Mournlands and back again.

Add Junglescape to the above and I'd be happy with all 5!

Farcescape.

the complete environment book to d02.

Which you'd snap up!

Put me down for a jungle book and a mountain book.

That was Stormwrack. It included swamps and marshlands as "aquatic" environments.

It really didn't go into even as much detail as the old Far Corners of the World series did, though.

I think a 'planescape' book would be great. Sigil, Outlands, Gatetowns, etc. portal/key magic, more planetouched races, exotic planar environmental rules (astral, ethereal, shadow, etc), Dabus 'speech', planar 'cant.

Seems like there is so much appropriate material that could easily fill such a '-scape' book.

Starscape? Spelljammer 3.5!

This is the one I'd most like to see. Not Spelljammer 3.5, per se (although that could be part of it), but a book detailing various ways to travel between Material Plane worlds.

A Planescape and a Spelljammers book comparable in size and focus to the environment books would be very welcome as source material, if nothing else.

I'd buy both.

I can't comprehend why they've done Frostburn and Sandstorm, but haven't done some kind of forest/jungle book. That probably should have been first, I would think...unless there's some logic to this that I'm just not getting. Almost everyone has forests in thier game.

But, since it wasn't first, I'd settle for it being next.

I think there's been a delay in any such book precisely because almost everyone has a forest in their game -- much as it's taken until now for the dungeon book: the forest environment is so thoroughly entrenched in the game that there isn't that much additional information that needs to be put out when compared to deserts and arctic wastelands.

That's a pretty solid idea, actually.

Although I don't think there'd be enough in there to justify an actual hardcover. An issue of Dragon, maybe.
