|reason=This is a great sourcebook, but is probably my least favorite of the series. The revised monster PC rules, combat system, leadership rules, and other stuff is generally well thought out and fantastic. The writing remains amusing, insightful, and thought provoking. The classes remain good, but begin to powercreep a bit from previous works (especially the fighter). Scaling feats are a mixed bag from a great idea, though most are awesome. The scaling armor bit has never worked for me. These minor issues don't strongly detract from the otherwise excellent work though, and so it can carry an excellent from me.}} | |reason=This is a great sourcebook, but is probably my least favorite of the series.

| + | |reason=Fighters are sometimes, just sometimes, allowed nice things. This may be understandably seen as a bad thing by people who have been playing with the mentality that there should be some kind of power gap between Fighters and Wizards, but Races of War goes to lengths to make up for the poor rap that Fighters have been getting. The handbook impresses me, the writing is masterfully done and the content is a good revision for certain people; like myself. | ||

| + | There may be powercreep, the Fighter may have an ability that's like "dude, wtf, sand in my eyes", there may be small problems here and there, but perfection is not what we're looking for in these kinds of things. This entire handbook fills out to be something fun and exciting to play. Not just because you can fluff up what you're doing, but because you're actually doing something and contributing. | ||

Jotas Pics
Okay, love the pictures, they are epic, and lovely. I simply think they may be a tad to large...
For example, my computer screen isn't near as big as these monsters. Now then, a person could argue that they'd be fine, and that the page doesn't need to look good on every screen, but my computer screen resolution is about average size (1280 x 800). Perhaps they could be better placed, say, at the end of a subarticle of the sourcebook, since they look awesome, but, would stretch out the text of the book otherwise, making it irritating to read/look at. Though, these could be resized and kept where they are. Of course, that'd make mine superfluos, and would prolly make mine need to be removed. Also, while the second pic is an excellent image of a fantasy warscene, I would recommend the first one be used, since it both exemplifies the aim of the Tomes to make awesome characters awesome, and of this book to focus on war. → Rith (talk) 03:51, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
- My bad. On my computer they are sized just big enough to fill all the blank space to the right of the index. Feel free to adjust as is more universally appropriate. -- Jota 04:03, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
- kk, fixed that, thing I managed to get a better size for all screen resolutions that still catches a good bit of the detail. Also took of my mock book cover pic since it does really seem superflous now, what with the epic pics that sit on this page. Put some space between them as well, to make the page not feel cluttered (fung-shua). → Rith (talk) 04:39, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
Unfinished armors
In the Armor section, many of the light armor bonuses are unlisted or unfinished.
- We know. No one's ever gotten around to making stuff awesome enough to flesh them out. Feel free to give it a shot. --Genowhirl 17:42, October 19, 2009 (UTC)
- Actually, someone has. You can find updated versions of all the Frank and K stuff (Races of War, Tome of Fiends, etc), plus some community-made material compiled into PDFs here: http://code.google.com/p/awesometome/downloads/list --Neofenrir 18:38, October 19, 2009 (UTC)
- Holy shit. That's what I get for not checking the PDF thread on the den... --Genowhirl 18:41, October 19, 2009 (UTC)

Bad Link
samurai has the level 7 iaijutsu tome when the character has the "edge" he may make an attack of opportunity. Clicking on the highlighted blue link it brings me here that does nothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.41.155.219 (talk • contribs) at
- You'll want to go Races of War (3.5e Sourcebook)/Advanced Combat#Base Attack Bonus and Combat Maneuvers for info on The Edge. Will fix link in class. Thanks for pointing that out. --Ganteka Future 06:28, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
