What is on everyone's purchase lists for 4e and Saga?

What have you purchased already for 4e and Saga?

Note if you don't plan on getting anything just stay out of this thread for the love of the gaming gods. This isn't a place for "No more 4e! 4e is terrible!" or anything like it. SO just spare us all the trouble and keep quiet.

If you aren't getting anything, what books interest you enough to be curious?
What kind of books would you like to see in the future?


My purchased list.

The D&D Gift Set.
Adventurer's Vault
Dm's Screen
Player's Guide to Faerun.


Future Purchases.
Manual Of The Planes.
Martial Power.
Player's Handbook II.
Arcane Power.
Dungeon Tiles. Lots of Dungeon Tiles.

Possibles
Dungeon Delve.
Eberron Player's Guide
Eberron Campaign Guide
Monster Manual II
Divine Power
Primal Power

Unlikely but might consider
Revenge Of The Giants
Eberron's Adventure
Adventurer's Vault II


Saga products. None owned.
Planned purchase.
Core rules.

Possible Purchase
Clone Wars
KOTOR
Force Unleashed

Unlikely but might consider?
Scum and Villainry.
Rebellion Era

What sort of products would I be interested in?

I'd be all over a Fey Supplement book (In the same kind of vein as the Draconomican) like white on rice on a white paper plate in a snowstorm.

An Abomination Book. (Lords of Madness)
Celestial Book. (That would be for Angels for those of you that don't know the old pre 4e name for them)

Al Qadim, player's and campaign guides

Darksun, player's guide.

The "Water World" they have described oh so briefly. Most likely the Campaign Guide.

I'm thinking about a Screen - I bought all the core books we're using. Players are going to be getting one of those nice hex mats (the double-sided kind) and the expansion books. The "you can use it if we have the book" condition will get you that collection in-house quick.

So far, I've bought the core books and Martial Powers

I intend to buy Arcane Powers and PHB 2, and I'll get the DM Screen once there's a corrected version available.

Open Grave is a maybe. PHB II is a yes. Arcane Power, Divine Power, and AV 2 are also "yes."

Edit: I already have SAGA core and KotoR, and I'm good with that for now.

I don't play Saga, but for 4E:

Owned
Player's Handbook
Dungeon Master's Guide
Monster Manual
Adventurer's Vault
Martial Power
Forgotten Realms Player's Guide
(I also have a DDI subscription that I just purchased a week or so ago. It was definitely the beta of the character creator that convinced me.)

Definite future purchases
Player's Handbook 2
Arcane Power
Monster Manual 2

Likely future purchases
Manual of the Planes
Divine Power (I'm not 100% I'll ever get around to playing a divine character. They're a little further down my character idea list.)
Primal Power (Depends how much I like the classes in PHb2, but I like what I've seen so far.)
Eberron Player's Guide
Dungeon Master's Guide 2

Possible future purchases
Open Grave
Draconomicon 1 and 2
Eberron Campagin Setting
Adventurer's Vault 2

Wish list for future products
Dark Sun
I'll almost certainly buy any future PHbs (and corresponding ___ Power books) and MMs.

I don't tend to take as much interest in adventures or similar products like Dungeon Delve. It's unlikely I'll buy more minis, though I may have a look at the hero sets due out in May, and the power cards just strike me as unnecessary.

So far, all I've got is the Gift Set. I frequently borrow the AV, though, and may have to pick it up. Here's some more I have in mind and why:

Probable Buys:

1. Arcane Power: My Staffizie demands it! Martial Power was cool enough for the Melee guys that I must have it!

2. Martial Power: Though I love my Staffizie and don't plan on retiring him (or dying *knocks wood*) anytime soon, I want to try a sticky Fighter pretty badly.

3. PHBII: I hear tell they've got some Controllers in there. I love Controllers. The Archivist is in there, right? I almost - almost - bailed on my Staffizie to make one with the preview material. So I think I need this one, too. ;)

Wish List:

1. Dark Sun Player's Guide/CS: Dark Sun is teh best setting EVAH!

2. Ritual Compendium: C'mon, that one practically sells itself!

So far, I have the core set ('natch), FR Campaign Setting (not a fan of the new Realms ), FR Player's Guide (for the Swordmage, if nothing else), and Manual of the Planes (my favorite supplement, by far). I also subscribe to D&D Insider, usually month-to-month.

I'm planning to get Player's Handbook 2. I'm also keeping an eye peeled for psionics. I'm thinking of jumping in on Eberron this time around (not enough time for me during 3.5; not a problem now though). Not sure what else is in the works this year.

I don't plan on getting Martial Power or any of that series. Nor the subsequent MMs. I may pick up Draconomicon someday. I'll have to wait and see on subsequent DMGs.

I'm not collecting the 4e D&D as heavily as I did 2nd and 3rd edition. Instead, I'm planning on making liberal use of the online Rules Compendium. This way, I can still support the brand without buying loads of books. 'Sides, I've been a die-hard fan of Dragon for many years ;).

I currently have the three core books, Martial Power and Adventurer's Vault. I didn't plan on getting AV, but I was in Chapters on Boxing Day. I couldn't resist the 30% off Boxing Day sale and bought it.

I do plan to purchase Arcane Power, PHB 2 and Divine Power (I believe it is coming out late in 2009). When the Psionics book comes out, I will be getting that, too.

Still need to pick up Martial Power (stupid bills) and I'd really like to get Open Grave as well. Definitely planning on getting Arcane Power and the other power books. Beyond that I haven't really made much decision making, though I'll probably get the 2 versions of PHB, DMG, MM. Never really got into Eberron but I have liked what I've read about it and may pick up those books too.

Ok, so if I'm not planning on getting anything, wich is it?

Anyways;

Saga = nothing. I don't play that system & don't forsee playing it. Thus no need for any of its books....

4E - Since I've decided that I'm done DMing 4E, in all likely hood not much. Maybe the PHB II (or whatever book eventually holds the bard). I can forsee maybe eventually picking up the various power source books as I need them.
But as of right now I've got all the 4E material I need.

So what do you do when faced with the eventuality of buying some book that's complete junk, doesn't interest you, and you have no use for?
Will you really buy it anyways just because it's a piece of 4e?

Looking at Open Grave, but not sure about this one. Won't judge the book by the cover

Looking forward to Arcane power

I may pick up the Eberron stuff, but I don't dig that setting very much. Always have and always will be a FR fan.

Yes I will. I'm a collector. Aside from a few 3E books and several OD&D books, I have pretty much everything "official" made for D&D. I used to have all of OD&D, but I lost many of them in a flood several years ago.

EDIT: I have to clarify my above post. I do NOT own that many 3PP books/modules/etc. My collection is "official" books only.

Future PHBs and MMs. I'm mostly getting PHB2 for the Shifters, though my wife will be wanting it for the bard and the Primal stuff.

Eberron CS and PG, definitely.

X Power books, definitely.

Odds are, no campaign settings after Eberron, but perhaps player's guides if they have stuff I think I can use.

Dungeons & Dragons

Owned: Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, Monster Manual, H1 Keep on the Shadowfell.

Will Buy: Player's Handbook 2, Dungeon Master's Guide 2, Monster Manual 2, Eberron Campaign Guide, Eberron Player's Guide, Open Grave, Manual of the Planes.

I'm happy, for now, to stick with the Compendium for the options from the Various Power books. I don't need either Draconomicon since I don't really plan to use dragons that much in my games. I might buy the rest of the H-series adventures, H2 Thunderspire Mountain and H3 Pyramid of Shadows, depending on how my wife enjoys the solo game I'm running for her with Keep on the Shadowfell.

I'm running the Scales of War adventure path for my wife and four of our friends, so I'm sure I will get quite a bit of use out of everything.

Star Wars Roleplaying Game Saga Edition

Owned: Star Wars Roleplaying Game Saga Edition core rulebook, Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide.

That's all I really plan to buy for the foreseeable future. My Star Wars game probably won't happen for a little while, and I don't want to complicate it too much with extra options from the other books.
