Did he mention we need a 30' template?

I love my templates, need to start bringing them for our EtCG campaign.

I have a bunch of these, and would love a 30' one as well.

30, 50, 60 set in the works?

I think it should specify that they are 1:5 scale, I did a double-take before I remembered... hehe

It's right there in the description: "They're designed using the popular 1 inch=5 foot scale."

But your notion is nonetheless amusing!

I agree 30' template, as soon as it's added, I'll gladly order this product.

wouldn't thirty ft also work for bards song?

Particularly useful if in yellow to represent bright illumination radius from a sunrod.

Similarly a 60' radius is also very useful.

Cathos (Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber), Sat, Jun 6, 2009, 04:51 AM

Definitely interesting...but definitely overpriced.

Check ebay. You can get for alot cheaper.

...and I've been asking since the days of the Alpha 1 playtest, but here's another vote: 30' for Cleric please!

>Lisa, may I please have this in red to match my collection? Many thanks. Oh, soon please, and thank you.

Just a quick post to remind you that if you do a 30' burst for the cleric (and yes I will buy one in a heartbeat)It needs to be centred on a square rather than a point like all the other templates otherwise the burst will be uneven and you have arguments about what corner to place the template on.

Speaking of which how do you guys handle that situation. My players regularly carry around a stone with silence cast on it. The monk carries it on his person but all the templates are centred on a point not a square because the spell rules make you target your spell there.

What does everone else do for this circumstance???

I, too, will order a 30' Radius Template as soon as it's available.

You're mistaken:

Some effects, notably clouds and fogs, spread out from a point of origin, which must be a grid intersection...

The point of origin of a spell is always a grid intersection.

Your monk may choose any corner of his square as the center of the effect.

Yeah I know that's what it says, and it's there for gameplay ease,but that just seems lopsided and helps to destroy the suspension of disbelief. I was hoping for an answer that ,i don't know, seemed more realistic if you say that of an imaginary world with magic and dragons :-).. The game runs smoothly and then something like that comes along which just helps to reinforce in everyones mind... Just a game and now we have to resort to a silly rule for the ease of gameplay.

Just my thoughts. I have ended up cuting out a 20' template from coloured plastic that centres on a square. It's slightly wider in the some areas but less so in others so as not to enlargen the area of effect too much.

Count me in for the 30' template (we really need it for Channel Energy!!)

Thanks,

I'm ready to pre-order the 30' radius and the two types of 15' cones.
