Actually, I rather enjoyed MMII. What with it being chock-full of updated 2e PS critters and all...

And this is my review:
Great addition to my D&D collection. Much better than MM II! That kinda s***ed

Thanks for that. It appears to be a different creature.

The Grisgol

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20040905a&page=4

looks like a nice new beasty. I'll have to look at converting that back to 2nd Edition.

How on earth can a player use a Dracotaur

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20040905a&page=3

as a character when it has +8 Strength, +2 Dexterity, +4 Constitution, +2 Intelligence and +2 Charisma?

Bring on the munchkins!!!

Here's the excerpt from MMIII that was mentioned in another thread.

The manual does seem interesting does anyone know how much it will cost I'm guessing expensive.

Thank you for that link Sirius! Some very excellent artwork here.
Armand looks like an interesting monstrous race easily converted to a playable race I hope
New set of Giants! Look out!
New Golems look very interesting.
Lots more very cool monster races that look like they could be made player races
Looks like quite a few new planar monsters and races. Sage will be happy Me as well
New Troll races! I knew there were more races of Troll! Still haven't seen Scrags or Island Trolls detailed yet though...
A few new woodland races, not as many as I would like to see but still at least there are a few!

Needless to say I will be purchasing this tome as soon as its available!

WOTC now has an art gallery and Designer Interview up for this product.

Hmmm, Wood Woad.

I wonder if it's the same as the Wood Wode that first appeared in the 2nd ed Realms adventure "Doom of Daggerdale*"?

Anyone know?


* or it could have been "Doom of Daggerfalls"

I read two creatures that were specifically PS-based. Although, I assume their inclusion in this monster book is because the Planar Handbook hits the shelves two months before the proposed release date for MMIII.
The Sage Posted - 03 Jul 2004 : 07:10:28
I was just thinking about the same thing. I'd like to see more specific details about the quori, so that would be nice. Of course, more Daelkyr variants and source material wouldn't go astray either.

I don't think those creatures are Eberron specific-they were listed for compatibility reasons, actually. I believe there will be at least one Eberron specific creature(the Aundair battlehawk comes to mind), but it's from the Core line, not the Eberron line. Although I wouldn't mind some more Eberron creatures-more quori would be quite nice, or some more inspired.

Revenge of the Boneclaw? Is that it's actual title?

I might-I'll have to see how much I read by then.

I have no problem with such.

That's not good. Hope things get better for you.

Back in a bit with a date. I wish I could find a list of artists they are using as well.
