[QUOTE="PJ Mason, post: 1296740, member: 11727"] I'm in the same boat as Derulbaskul. I have 6 mongoose books and wasn't that happy with them. They were from the older days (Highthrone, Constructs, etc). They weren't horrible (a couple were) but just weren't good enough, so i stopped getting mongoose. These days a D20 company has one or two shots at making me happy and then they are done. Sword & Sorcery material is always a good read, but i don't trust their game mechanics as far as i can throw them. I've had two different FFG products fall apart on me (and the Midnight book did it twice - one of them was a replacement ffg sent me!! I didn't even bother sending for a third one), so they are absolutely done. Their horizon books are still a go though (redline was great), but no more big books/hardcovers from them will get my cash. I have had a pretty decent love/hate thing going on with WOTC since 3E came out, but lately i have liked their stuff (BOVD, BOED, Complete Warrior, Arms & Equipment guide). There is no way in hell they are getting more money from me for corebooks. Especially since i like maybe half of their changes (they can keep their spells changes now and forever - the couple spells i had a problem with i changed, they didn't need to go off the deep end like they did). AS usual, these are just mho. I wouldn't normally add that, but given the sniping going on, i wanted to cover my @ss. :) [/QUOTE]
