11-20-05, 01:41 PM I would love to see more books done up like the SRD: well-organized, searchable, and portable Word documents without pretty pictures.

I would like to see a complete (and continously updated) list of all the RPG books with perhaps notes on spells, feats, prestige classes, etc. There was recently a party optimization contest. I read through the winners, but I didn't know what half the stuff they were using was. They nicely put in abbreviations of the books they were talking about. I didn't recognize the abbreviations. Compiled lists of spells, feats, prestige classes, etc. would be nice.

The SRD was developed to give publishers clear guidelines as to what they could include in a third party supplement without fear of reprisal from Wizards of the Coast. It was not desighned to allow players to skip the books. That it provides this feature benefit is accidental.

:thumbsup: Thiers a lot of cheap people who will just run games of the srd. Wotc would lose money if they did this. The books are not that much-order them used online.
