I haven’t bought anything since I picked up Fiendish Codex II.  Honestly, I haven’t had much of a chance to do anything not related to baseball and while I was hoping to get back into writing my campaign, it looks like once again it’ll be on the backburner.  I am excited about one upcoming product though, and that’s next month’s release of the Magic Item Compendium.

While I’m not too keen on the price tag ($35), magic items are almost as interesting to me as spells.  As a DM, a good magic item can be the focus of an entire campaign and stocking the party with a nice array of magic also makes them feel like they’re advancing in power.  I own all of the original Encyclopedia Magica’s from 2E and enjoy flipping through them so I hope this new product is worth the price tag.
