That's true, to a certain extent. However, while I'm not too
interested in rules and tables etc. for the Shadow World, I'd like
something that details what you can expect (if that's quite the right
word) to find their, exactly what halflings can do with their inate
abilities.
The problem I have right now is the discrepancies between the main
books in the boxed set, the novels, and later supplements, many of
which have different perspectives on what the Shadow World is and
what you can do there.
Again, specifics are not so important. What might be good is a book
that has, say, a number of possible versions of the Shadow World -
the 'dark and twisted counterpart to Cerilia', the rather surreal
blood-and-symbolism version, and, say, the exact counterpart, only
everything's dead/darker/twisted, with towns populated by undead
where living people would be etc.
Right now, it's very much arbitrary as to some of the things that can
be done, which can make things tricky to GM (I know, I've been there)
- - for example, where there is a building in Cerilia, is there a
complementary building in the Shadow World; since halflings can read
alignment by looking in to the Shadow World, this implies a spirit
corresponding to the person observed - does this mean that someone in
the Shadow World can kill/injure/posess someone in Cerilia by killing
this spirit, and so on.
I, and I'm sure many others, would like to see these ambiguities and
questions cleared up. Like I say, it could be done as a set of
'possible dimensions' - to preserve some of that air of mystery, but
which would make it far easier to GM stuff there.
My 2GBs (although, it was two posts, surely that would be 4GBs...)

One thing that we might like would be a book that is a compilation
of all the domain sourcebooks.

Things I would like to see:
* Shadow World product (no surprises there)
* A book detaling various types of Guilds
* More information on the Anuirean culture
* Information about other continents
* Grand-scale heroic adventure (i.e. Rod of Seven Parts/Gates of
Firestorm Peak)
* More Domain Sourcebooks (though I heard this idea has been shelved?)
That's about it for now.

Greetings,
On the TSR chat board, Ed Stark has asked for some input on new BR products
we would like to see. I'm sure many people on the List have a few ideas
they would like to give. So if anyone has any suggestions lets here them. I
for one would like to see a supplement dealing with various fairies, and
fairie-kind. Such things as Sprites, Treants, Pixies, Leprechauns,
Centaurs, Dryads, Brownies, etc. I'm sure these creatures have a unique
flavor in BR, and I would like to know more about them.

I'd like to see some global views and expansions. What is on the rest of
the world. I don't want the whole thing, but expand out alittle more. Also,
how about going more int the humanoid races and thier views/ideals. Lastly,
what is going on in the shadow lands.

I like the fact that it's kept mysterious. One of the big problems with
game worlds is when what should be mysterious becomes commonplace (cf the
World of Darkness), and the ideas loose the magic that they had. There's
enough information in the books that you can take the basic idea and run
with it, but without ever having to wonder about rules or logical
consistancy (just assume that it has it's own logic on a level that's not
immdeiately apparant...).
GMs can do what they want with the Shadow World without players having a
clue what to expect (beyond the obvious). The unknown is always scarier
than stuff you understand.

That's not how it always works; sometimes countries reserve most of
their products for export. For years there were multi-year waiting
lists to get nice cars in West (note, *NOT* East) Germany for example.
So if a country's main source of guild income was the weapons trade it
might actually be MORE expensive to buy those weapons there than over in
the next kingdom.

I also agree that it would be a good idea for a guild book. Explain more
about each of the holdings. Source-Book of Mage Craft and Temple-Book of
Priests have been done do a Book of Law and a Book of Trading. I play
Bannier Andien in Ian's PBeM Game and I keep getting slammed because I
destroy the land. Well tell me how TSR says that I can not do that and
still make money. Explain the Guilds and thier functions alittle more. As
to COST of goods, I make everyone pay top dollar, my wares are worth every
gold crown. ;-)

There is quite a fair amount of information regarding Druids in the
Rjurk Highlands campaign expansion, and I am sure there will be a fair
bit more in the Book of Priestcraft under "Erik". At least, I hope
there will be. : )

Well, I suppose that I would be interested in books for guilders and
soldiers similar to Magecraft and Priestcraft "Books of." Book of
Guildcraft, Book of Warcraft.
Leaving the Shadow World vague seems just fine to me. It keeps it
threatening.
Filling in the underground might be interesting. Correct me if I am wrong,
but there are no orog domains. Are they running their own underground world?
Are they just unblooded and cannot become regents? What/Who else is down
there, if anybody?

Perhaps both could be done in the one book, after all there is not as
much information that is needed for Warriors or Guilders. I would like
to see a better war system though, and maybe rules for running wars
quicker.

Personally I would like to see more about the shadow world. New monsters
etc would be nice as well. In one of the novels (Hag's Contract?) there
is a bit where a mage summons up these nasty snakes from the shadow
world. More on thing like that would be nice.

There are at least two Orog domains. (Blood Skull Barony, and the Iron
Hand Tribes. There is probably more but it is too late at night to go
looking through my bookcase.
It would be nice to have a book on Birthright Humanoids though,
something that described the culture, lifestyle, etc of Goblins, Orogs,
Gnolls, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, and the other races. Perhaps even a
book on all the human races as well, without all the domain info.

My two cents: the domain player's secrets are one of a few thing that can be bought and used by players (you wouldn't your players to read Ruins of Empire for example). When a player is assigned a domain, it is a good thing for him to get the domain secrets but you don't want to allow him access to the other domains secrets.
A bunch of domain sourcebooks in one pack become a DM only tool. If you decide to do it that way, at least make the information for each domain separate in the bundle so you can hand over only a part of it to a player. I would like to see new domain and even revision of the existing ones but I would prefer they stay separate.
It might also be better for the Birthright setting. There is usually (and hopefully) more players than DM so if stuff is produce than can be bought by players, you may end up selling more of it. The bigger the sales, the more likely is this setting to thrive.
Just my 2 cents

Compilations of Domain source books would be cool, the current sourcebooks
leave me with mixed feelings.
The current books seem to be written with the intent of being given to a PC
regent of the domain (which does bring up another point, how about source
books for domains like guild or temple holding structures). However in all
the domain books I have read, there is a lot of information that I would
rather the ruler not have. The source books give away too many secrets of
the domain, there are many things which are outright given away in the source
books that I would rather have the PCs try to figure out on their own with
perhaps hints of what is really going on. (I hesitate to mention specifics,
one
or two of my players subscribe to this list and as a hint to them, don't
believe
everything you read). However in other places information is clearly given
from
a particular NPCs point of view rather than information supplied impartially.
If there will be compilations of domain source books, I would like to see them
more specifically directed at the player or DM.

Hi folks
I'd like to see something like a "Historic battlebook" containing several
scenarios
to use those warcards. My players would like to get more practice in
fighting and other friends of mine just want to battle each other using
warcards (Like small version of battletech which is much too
expensive)...
O.K. I could do this myself, but there is always the historical
background missing :-(

I think a book describing each region (Northern, Western, Southern, Eastern

A good Idea, and one that would reduce the cost of producing the
product...
I always prefer books though and would always buy a print version of

Hmmn ... good point. So a "bundle" of domain packs is really what you
mean--not a big book compiling them. I think you're right.

Well ... that was the plan. Unfortunately, it seems players picked and
chose what domain sourcebooks to buy and, despite the low price tag, didn't
go for them the way we'd hoped. They were produced on such a tight budget,
we practically had to sell out of them to make them profitable
(fortunately, we sold out on quite a few, but not enough). If we can do
things to encourage more sales or further reducing the cost of goods, they
might work.

The original idea on this one was that you guys take all of the Domain

I like the idea of combined sourcebooks. Will make looking things up
much easier. A Hypertext CD ROM of all current (and maybe new) BR stuff
would be good also, nothing fancy, just the text and pictures with

Actually, with the PDF format you get the best of both worlds! I
printed out the odd pages of the Muden sourcebook on my color printer,
put the paper back in and printed the even pages on the backs. It looks
beautiful! My friends wondered why I pulled the cover off the book.
The only problem with the PDF format is that it is not very easy to scan
the text when you are looking for things nor to excerpt pieces when you
are providing players with bits of background.

Just so you know, I just checked with our product manager and, according to
his latest inventory (last week, I believe), we had just under 1000 copies
of Rjurik in stock--it isn't out of print (though it's getting darn close
...). Your retailer should have his/her distributor call TSR/Wizards if
there's some problem with getting a copy. I know we'd sure appreciate the
business ;-)
I'm not sure how a reprint of the domains would go ... but I'm keeping
track of all your responses.

I already have in a single book format if they have other domains incorpo=

the reprint be done on a regional basis or would it incorporate several =

domains from several different domains (eg 5-6 each of Rjurik, Brecht, =

to give it the widest appeal? The DMs could then decide what info to rel=
