Masks: 1,000 Memorable NPCs for Any Roleplaying Game
Publisher: Engine Publishing by Christoph F. [Verified Purchaser]	Date Added: 07/25/2011 09:36:47

This is an awsome GM-Book. Not only are there a thousand easy to use NPC's in there, but there are also tips how to make several thounds out of that, a quick Name Generator and it is also extremly well structured (Genre, Traits, Villian/Neutral/Ally,...). A book that every GM should have! 8D

Power Gamer's 3.5 Wizard Strategy Guide
Publisher: Goodman Games by Christoph F. [Verified Purchaser]	Date Added: 01/12/2006 00:00:00

Very interesting read, even for longtime gamers. I play Mage-type Charakters quite often but I still learned quite a few tricks from it. The only downside is that it is Core-Rules only.

LIKED: There are many tips and tricks and they are all backed up by facts and statistics.

DISLIKED: No support for non-Core Spells and Options.

QUALITY: Very Good

VALUE: Satisfied

Castles & Crusades: The Mysterious Tower
Publisher: Goodman Games by Christoph F. [Verified Purchaser]	Date Added: 01/12/2006 00:00:00

This is a very interesting Module with many Monsters, Traps and Riddles ... and even some Roleplaying is needed ;)

What I really like about it is that the players have different path's and the scenarios are really interesting. My players loved it so far despite the fact that one of them died.

I had a small problem with the maps (missing Marks) and that special attacks of the Monsters are not explained (like improved Grapple, no biggy if you have the C&C Bestiary) but I emailed the company about it and got an errata quite fast, which they will soon put up on their site. But these were really small points ... you could still play it without the errata.

LIKED: very insteresting Scenarious, many different types of encounters

DISLIKED: small errors on the maps and partly missing Monster-description ... but which will be soon as errata (or just mail them, there are quite quick)

QUALITY: Excellent

VALUE: Very Satisfied

Savaged Starships
Publisher: Ronin Arts by Christoph F. [Verified Purchaser]	Date Added: 12/10/2004 00:00:00

This product is very usefull for any Sci-Fi Campaign where you need more detailed Maps and fitting Savage Worlds Rules,

LIKED: The Maps look very good and Adventure Hocks are great!

DISLIKED: I think there should be more ships included. Half of the ships are just fighters and to small for interior maps.

QUALITY: Very Good

VALUE: Satisfied

Dice and Dramatics
Publisher: UKG Publishing by Christoph F. [Verified Purchaser]	Date Added: 01/22/2004 00:00:00

At first I was unsure if I should buy it, because it is the first product of them and I don't like D20. But then I saw a very positive Review on Enworld.org ( http://www.enworld.org/reviews/index.php?sub=yes&where=a
ctive&reviewer=Crothian&product=DaD1 ) and I finally spent the 7 Bucks.

Now I had the Chance to read through a bit and I am very impressed, not only is the style very good for a PDF(nice Pictures and good Layout) but also the Content seems great. There are Chapters for Players (including Non-Player Races like Kobolds!) and GM's alike. Even as I am not found of D20 I really like the Equipment and Spell section because there are quite interesting things there that you can easily adapt to any System.

The only thing that I find missing was a Printer Friendly Version, not because they don't use white background. This looks great for On-Screen Reading but Printing it will not be cheap :( I hope they will send buyers a printer-friendly Version ... it should not be hard to modify it for them.

I hope I could help a bit with the review (potential buyers and Ultramyth Design alike) and sorry about my bad English :P

Have FUN!

Relics

First of I'm VERY Dissapointed with the Product.

It doesn't lie, it is a sketchbook about mature Art from Shy. But the Problem is that I didn't know his style but I really liked the cover. The Problem with that was that the Sketches doesn't even nearly ressemble the same quality as the cover. I hopped for a good Source for one of my Campaigns but I don't see how can I use any of the pictures! :(

Why couldn't they include one or two sample pages like most of the products here do? Now my 5 bucks are gone and left a bad taste for future products without Demo's.

Anyway, if you are a fan of the Artist than it might be a good buy, but if you don't know him than better look elsewhere for usable RPG-Art.

P.S.: Why is this Product even here at RPGNow? I really don't see how you can use this, and I usally use Pictures quite often in my Group!
