Which supplementary monster 'manuals' do you prefer

[haiiro]

I love monster books.

I voted for MM2, LoH, AotA and the Monsternomicon. I'm also quite partial to Jade Dragons & Hungry Ghosts, Liber Bestarius and Twisted Lore.

I haven't picked up the FF yet. My current favorite offering of monsters is the bestiary section of Mindscapes -- it's phenomenal. I can't wait for Monsters of the Mind to hit the shelves.

Monsternomicon.....this book is just way to cool...though I don't use it much. But still very cool.

Monsternomicon (IMO the best monster book out there) and Monsters of Faerun (simply lots of good, useable monsters - the essential dragons like deep and shadow, the genasi, abishai, useful yuan-ti templates, beholder mage PrC, lots more too ).

I voted for all of them except or the last option(the one about only having MM1). I don't have Armies of the Abyss or LEgions of Hell yet, but I've looked them over on PDF and they're definitely on my buy list(I might pick them up from the FLGS today actually, assuming my insurance covers the doctor's visit)

I use all the WotC books, plus Ravenloft: Denizens of Darkness.

I love ToH, and FF and MM2 are pretty good, but MM1 always seems to be near the top of the pile while MM2 is near the bottom, FF lives on the shelf next to MoF.

Actually I was really disappointed with MoF, it started when they stole the Wemic from MM2 1E, and the rest of the monsters are fairly boring.
