I can see the utility of having class levels pre-added to the monsters, but I could do that myself - and can choose different classes for different situations, amongst other things. Similarly, I do not use minis. In situations where knowing exact position is necessary, a dry erase marker and a white board with a few dice on it works just as well. Thus the tie in to minis do not interest me. Finally, I actually like to create the situations for random encounters. Lastly, I still have a few issues with the new format. I like seeing breakdowns in AC, for example, so I can alter it as necessary with ease. I like all skills together (although I could perhaps see separating skills into two or three groups and placing them in blocks one over the other - such as perception, combat and common utility, and remaining skills. I admit, however, that Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk looks very interesting. I'm quite likely to buy that book. Complete Champion is under consideration. I liked Complete Mage - perhaps a 6 or 6.5 on a 10 pt scale - but these books can differ quite a bit from one another. As with Complete Scoundrel, I'll wait until reviews have come out and read a few of them before I decide whether to buy it or not.</blockquote>
