#1 akaddk Jul 13, 2014 22:43:30	32 more pages of monsters in the new monster manual... at no additional cost!   Yay!
#2 kill_the_wiz_first Jul 14, 2014 9:55:57	32 more pages! Woot! Now it's worth almost $35.00!   This is fantastic news as the MM is my favorite part of D&D.   Edit: fixed
#3 THEMNGMNT Jul 13, 2014 22:53:07	Thanks, WotC!
#4 BadMike Jul 13, 2014 22:58:08	Woot! This rollout just gets better and better!
#5 Luciender Jul 13, 2014 22:58:45	Excellent news! And +1 on the thread title.
#6 RokElfslayer Jul 13, 2014 23:15:54	I am Monstar!!! Buahahahahah...! But seriously, this is good news.
#7 Particle_Man Jul 14, 2014 0:00:01	Yay modrons!  I was hoping they would make a comeback when I saw that LN alignment has been brought back.
#8 Nautilus Jul 14, 2014 0:15:17	Pity it's too late to put Primus on the cover. Great news, though.

#10 Storyteller-Zero Jul 14, 2014 0:23:19	How many pages was it supposed to be originally?

#14 seti Jul 14, 2014 0:57:15	-1 for spelling 'more' 'MOAR'.    I do like the MM news, though. But, honestly...32 more pages probably only cost them 32 more cents per book to print...If that. Not a big of a deal. Had they raised the price, I would have been dissapointed, but not shocked...Hasbro is, well, Hasbro. And WotC makes millions selling cards in over-priced blind-buy packs that you need to be competitive in MtG.   I've said it before, and I will say it again: Caster monsters BETTER have succinct spell descriptions and damage/range/save/whatever figures in their stat blocks. I don't want to have to look up monster spells in the PHB when I'm DMing. I thought (and hope) that that BS ended with 3.5/PF.   Really looking foreward to the new illustrations. I love the new look for goblins and that ogre pic from the starter set was perfect.   PS: Hurray Modrons!

#20 Ramzour Jul 14, 2014 2:44:18	Do you like battle? Do you like monsters? Do you like to know the lore and ecology behind them? Do you like stat blocks?   Well then the Monster Manual is just for you! Each Monster Manual is 320 pages, packed full of amazing monsters, stat blocks, lore, and more!   Inside you'll find such classics as: Orcs, Mindflayers, Troglodytes, and everyone's favorite...DRAGONS!   But WAIT! There's MORE! Order now and you'll receive not 1, not 2, but *32* extra pages of monsters, all at no extra cost to you!!!! As an added bonus, we'll even throw in flumphs and modrons, as our special way of saying thank you.

#22 Ramzour Jul 14, 2014 2:52:36	haha, thanks!
#23 BoldItalic Jul 14, 2014 4:21:43	Hold on, if the book is 10% bigger, this means that each ten-ton delivery truck of monster manuals will be delivering 11% fewer copies to the warehouse.     There's going to be a shortage of copies!   Better pre-order two from different suppliers, just in case.
#24 Karnos Jul 14, 2014 4:40:29	I wonder if the new Monster Manual will have book worms in it.  i hope my copy doesn't.

#27 AquaticSpaceChicken Jul 14, 2014 6:33:13	Happiness!   Also, loved Mike Mearls' description of monster manual as crate bursting with monsters.
#28 alienux Jul 14, 2014 8:20:52	Very cool! I'll take as many monsters as I can get.
#29 quindia Jul 14, 2014 8:34:00	Very cool. Obviously they are still making their profits and some people will still grumble about the price, but they didn't have to leave the cost the same. Adding the extra pages with no price hike is a class move.
#30 The_Jester Jul 14, 2014 9:50:00	First thought: Wow, that's awesome.    Second thought: I must tweet how awesome this is. (Oh internet.)   Third thought: this might be the first time no one is snarky or negative on the forums regarding a L&L article.  Then I read the forums. And there was negativity within the first five reponses. Way to go us.
#31 kill_the_wiz_first Jul 14, 2014 9:52:25	Sorry, The_Jester. Please see my Sig for more details.

#40 Plaguescarred1 Jul 19, 2014 5:05:27	[/Duck out of vacation]   Excellent news thanks the D&D team!! Increasing page count rather than cut statblocks, entries or monsters entirely was definitly the better options IMHO...     Never have too many of these  and always need MOAR MONSTARZ   [/Jump back to vacation]
