Book Description

November 1, 2001
2002 ENnies Nominee: Best Monster Supplement

Within these pages reside monsters that haunt the worst nightmares of heroes from across the land. From the crushing blows of the ebant to the deadly attacks of the ulatra, adventurers from any world have new challenges awaiting them. Each monster is written world-neutral, allowing easy placement into any campaign setting. Every monster contains a wealth of advice on how to best incorporate them into your world.

What's inside of Minions: Fearsome Foes? More than 90 monsters, including three new templates (the Crowd, the Fallen, and Half-Troll), 6 new inner-planar creatures that are the perfect familiar for spellcasters, and monsters that are unique choices for player-character races. The Challenge Ratings (CR) of the monsters within Minions range from 1/8 to 20, providing a wide assortment of challenging opponents no matter what level your campaign.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get your Minions, January 14, 2002

This review is from: Minions: Fearsome Foes (D&D d20 3.0 Fantasy Roleplaying Supplement) (Paperback)
Of all the D20 products out so far, this has got to be the best I've seen. Not only is the content excellent, but the artwork and layout is also of the highest quality. Many of the other D20 items out there are good enough in content to use, but aesthetically fall short. Not so with Minions. If this is any indication to the quality we will continue to see out of Bastion Press, everyone else should pay attention. Buy this for your D&D campaign, you won't be sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nifty reference, August 17, 2007
This review is from: Minions: Fearsome Foes (D&D d20 3.0 Fantasy Roleplaying Supplement) (Paperback)
Are you a Gaming Master or Dungeon Master who runs regular role playing game sessions? If so, then you may want to get a copy of this booklet. It's filled with monsters (though why they call them minions is beyond me) that you can use in virtually any fantasy setting. None of them are all that difficult to dispatch but some are way rougher than others. The Puppet Master is one example and he's a pretty bad, bad tough guy to beat. He makes a great over all boss for an ongoing campaign.

Easy to read. Easy to find the monster type you want. Easily adaptable to any fantasy RPG session. Plus it's got monsters your PC's never seen before - you know the guys/gals who have meta-game knowledge? This book offers monsters they never heard of before! Hah!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well done book of monsters, March 14, 2006
By 
Rayek (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Minions: Fearsome Foes (D&D d20 3.0 Fantasy Roleplaying Supplement) (Paperback)
Fearsome Foes is a well written addition to the d20 catalog. All of the monsters are well thought out and are intentionally not campaign specific. The best feature of the monster listings is that each one has hints and tips on how to successfully integrate it into an existing world.

My only issue is with layout. It would have been nice if the book had listed one monster per page; rather than following the MM format of putting one monster after another with no breaks. But that hardly detracts from the book's value.

The artwork is reminiscent of 1st and 2nd edition AD&D monster books. It gives the book an almost retro feel.

All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase.
