To buy? Epic Encounters, Gnolls? LevelUp's Monstrous Menagerie 2?

 We like our gnolls.  https://steamforged.com/products/epic-encounters-savannah-of-the-gnoll-pack

20 miniatures plus a dbl map.  Tall grass might provide cover.  $60.  Not bad price actually. 

UPDATE: OK, I bought the Monstrous Menagerie II (aka Mon.Men.2),... spontaneous buying when I've got a cold I guess... and it looks pretty good. Check out the Crimson Sporecap, CR 7... I'm using that SOON. Maybe it followed the drow into G3. And it has stats for a Crimson Sporecap Thrall, yes indeed, it can mind control you. 

LevelUp's Monster Menag.2, a lot of weird monsters so I need to think on it, but damn the first book was the best:

BTW, they went "free" recently I guess with the Monstrous Menagerie 1.
