Description:
200 monsters from the depths of the earth, compiled from over a dozen sources, including 92 classic 3.0 monsters updated for a 3.5 game!

Welcome to Expeditious Retreat Press's newest line: Monster Geographica. The Monster Geographica books compile 200 monsters of specific terrains into one inexpensive resource. Collected from over 20 different sources, Monster Geographica books also provide an extensive array of challenge ratings and concepts.

Due to its organization, Monster Geographica is an ideal monster supplement for random encounters, adventure building, and campaign design. Unlike other monster books, Monster Geographica organizes monsters by challenge rating. Building a CR 5 encounter? All CR 5 monsters are right next to each other; no need to flip back and forth between a CR table and the monsters’ stat blocks. Need a random encounter level 7? Again, all CR 7 monsters are right next to each other. Don’t see one you like? Flip to the CR 5 monsters and pick two.

We also include an alphabetical table of contents with a listing of creatures by type and subtype (also arranged by challenge rating), making Monster Geographica books easy to use from many different approaches.

This PDF version has bookmarks by alpha, by challenge rating, and by type for maximum utility at the game table.

A collection of OGC monsters from various products. Great if you are looking something very specific (in this case Underground) monsters, bad if you are looking for something bad new. The nicest feature of this book is that some older 3.0 monsters have be [...]

I was very impressed with this work. There is a wide variety of monsters, and although some were banal or uninteresting there were lots of ones I could definitely use and a few I was tempted to base a campaign on. They are very easily and comprehensively [...]

ERP has done a great job of compiling and updating a ton (ca 200) of underground monsters, and have made it available for an amazing price. I commend them for simplifying an adventure writer's life. The book is meticulously bookmarked alphabetically and b [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
