Today will cover the "others" in my Monstrous Compendium collections, but not ones I used regularly. Again the time these came out money was tight for a college kid needing to buy school supplies, food, and pay rent so choices were made. Ravenloft won, Dark Sun and Spelljammer lost.
Thankfully these days I can buy PDFs much cheaper and with little to no concern for storage space. Plus I have recently begun to explore Spelljammer and I have found it to be rather fun.
For these reviews, I am considering the PDFs only.
MC9 Monstrous Compendium Spelljammer Appendix II
PDF 64 pages (70 with dividers and covers), Color cover art, black & white interior art, $4.99. 61 monsters.
Like the first Spelljamer MC this one gives us some fairly unique and interesting monsters. The one I recall the best is the Scro or the "Space Orcs." We also get a trio of celestial dragons which is fun.
There is also a collection of MC-formated monsters in the Spelljammer: Adventures in Space set.
