Worthwhile purchase. July 28, 2010

I actually liked this one a bit more than the initial Martial Power entry, but I can chalk that up more to finding specific builds and options contained inside more interesting on a personal level than the last.
Aside from the inclusion of the usual additional content (build options, feats, paragon paths, epic destinies) I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of the Martial Practices, which is an analog to the Rituals contained in the base handbook, but with an availability to all classes.
So why 4 stars and not 5? I'm picky. Simple as that. It was a good book, clearly written, well illustrated as usual and contained everything in it I'd expected and a bit more... but I generally reserve 5 stars for things I consider to be absolute "must haves." It didn't change my life, rearrange my world view, or even significantly alter the way I view gaming. But it was worth every dime I spent on it, and it's certainly made my gameplay more interesting.
 4e Gamer Review June 5, 2010

The newest edition of the Dungeons and Dragons saga is simple. Convenient and expensive to attracted new players with new cash. But mechanically, the system is a step back in gamer evolution. It does cater to amine' fans and the WOW crowd. But doesn't offer the depth or insight experienced gamers crave. If you're new to Role-playing, start here. If you're an experienced gamers, this product is a flaccid, stinky bomb.
Synopsis - if you don't know what's good in RPG, this is a learning experience. If you're already experienced, pass on this product.

WARNING: This review is strictly opinion. Having said that, I should also warn you that I am a serious bibliophile as well as a devout D&D player.
This book has a lot of cool options in it for the martial classes of 4e, most notable being the Marauder Ranger and the Rogue build that essentially turns you INTO a ranger. But seeing as you can get access to all of the 4th edition D&D content through the DDI subscription for $5 a month, I feel that buying this volume is a tad bit redundant. I bought it and loved it for the reasons stated above as well as the fact that I'm the president of a gaming club at my university and I feel that I should supply the members with the required materials for their needs. However, if you don't get the same rush I do from that "New Book Smell," or you simply do not plan on using it, then I'm sure you can find something better to spend your money on.

Its a book. With words and pretty pictures. Reviews for technical manuals are silly. Its not like a toaster. With a toaster it either works or it doesn't. Reviews for toasters aren't silly. What can one say about a DnD rulebook ? "Hey, they remembered to print the rules in it". Funny stuff when you think about it. But overall I would say I'm satisfied with it. Even though one can get digital copies of these books online for free I don't mind the money I spent on this book.
