[QUOTE="Sunderstone, post: 3189262, member: 23497"] I was 50/50 on the MMIV, I'll skip the MMV for one reason alone.... I'm tired of seeing references to other splat books. I love the stat blocks, I loved some of the new creatures. I didnt mind seeing a few classed popular creatures. What I [B]didnt[/B] like were the references to classes in splat books. I saw a few that used Scout, Ninja, Unholy Scion, and Marshal classes and abilities, etc. I dont own the complete adventurer or miniatures handbook and I dont want to buy them either. I see no reason that the MMV wont follow the same example as the MMIV so I'll pass. Even the PHB2 (damn fine book I might add) suffers from "splat fever" in the beginning with substitution abilities for select splatbook classes. Now another "core" book like the Monster Manual is on the same track with references to these splats. Again, I'll pass from now on. The Core books are losing their cores. Yes, I know that the "complete" series is part of the "core" line, but Core to me are the three main titles that are needed to run the game. [/QUOTE]
