[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 1470090, member: 1465"] [b]Expanded Psionics Handbook:[/b] Probably not. But I haven't bought the 3.0 rulebook, therefore if this turns out to be an outstanding performance of the designers, it will be the first time for me to go psionics. [b]D&D Map Folio I:[/b] No. [b]D&D Map Folio II:[/b] No. [b]Map Folio 3-D:[/b] No. IIRC the first two are collections of maps from the website and not new maps, why should I buy them? Maps are disposable and I don't want to spend money on them. The 3-D map instead had a very different problem: you cannot conceal it easily! ;) [b]Complete Divine:[/b] Maybe. [b]Complete Arcane:[/b] Yes. I own the 5 classbooks of 3.0, and it should be quite straightforward that I buy these 2 as well. But I didn't dig the Complete Warrior much, and didn't buy it, so I am skeptic about what these 2 will contain. On the other hand, I am too fond of arcane spellcasters to resist on the latter... :uhoh: [b]Eberron Campaign Setting:[/b] No. [b]Eberron Whispers of the Vampire's Blade:[/b] No. [b]Sharn : City of Towers:[/b] No. Eberron is a good idea, but I don't have money to invest in a new setting, nor time to play it, and if I had I'd be buying FR books. [b]Planar Handbook:[/b] Yes. Manual of the Planes was my favourite 3.0 book, so how couldn't I miss this? [b]Races of Stone:[/b] Probably not. [b]Races of the Wild:[/b] Probably not. I'll wait and see what's inside, but I am not fond of racial books nearly as much as I am of classbooks. [b]D&D Basic Set:[/b] No. I don't need basics anymore. [b]Monster Manual III:[/b] No. There is only a microscopic possibility that I may buy this. I don't need junk monsters and weirdos, and I doubt this 4th monster book can have something very evocative to me. [b]Frostburn :[/b] Probably Not. ...but since I know too few yet about this, I may change my mind. [b]Special Edition Player's Handbook:[/b] Maybe. I haven't bought the 3.5 rulebooks, but I will early or late, as soon as I find a good discount. I may buy this instead, but only if the price makes sense. [b]Libris Mortis The Book of Undead:[/b] Maybe. I liked the Draconomicon although I think it's more cool than useful. What I do about LM depends on how cool it will be and how useful it will be. It's possible that it will be a great book with lots of RP ideas, but also that it will be a terrible wrap. [b]Shining South:[/b] No. I really like the FR regional books, but it's the kind of series that I would either buy entirely or pass on entirely. [/QUOTE]
