You can find a more detailed (and correct) map of Magnimar here. It was featured on the Paizo blog, which, right now, is the best place to look for additional content. (We know... it needs to also be put somewhere more obvious.)
Great job so far guys.
Up to now, my players are "dying" (lol) to continue the adventure on each week session.
The art is getting better and that's really good.
I would like it if you could make 2 posters like in the other adventure path: 1 for the villains and 1 for the hero’s friends of this pathfinder series.
Over the weekend, I ran the Foxglove Manor section for my yearly Halloween gaming session. Although we didn't get to finish it before everyone was falling out, it was one of the better haunted house games I've run. The hauntings were deliciously eery and the players enjoyed seeing the story of the manor unfolded through them. That section alone makes this issue well worth getting. Fortunately, the rest of the adventure is just as solid.

I especially like the haunting...
Yes, i am wondering where the down-loadable content is as well. I believe the city map of Magnimar is mis-numbered. I would like some clarification on it.
We'll gather stuff into more obvious places soon, but for now, the place to look is the Paizo Blog. You'll find corrected and more detailed maps of Magnimar here.
I have nothing but complaints about this adventure:
WHY IS IT SOOOOO GOOOOOOOD!!!???
WHY IS IT SOOOOO PERFECT FOR HALLOWEEN!?
WHY DID RICH PETT CREATE SOMETHING BETTER THAN EVERYTHING I WRITE!!!???
Nothing but complaints...
and tears.
Interesting what you get away with in a bio page that won't normally fly on the boards otherwise Sir Nick.
Although two of your mental ability scores are alarmingly close to Lenny's... ^_^
If it is any consolation, your stuff almost frags more PCs than the rest .... thiers just frag PCs instead...
It would have been great to put small maps of the murdered scene like in cops movies (with the dead bodies locations outline in white), like the one for the sanatorium.
My players just took a quick look at those places and without too must interest: they figure out that if there is no map, it means that it's not an important place in the adventure...
On another subject, it was fun to see the face of one of my players, when he found out that is "beloved" katrine was death (he had started an affair with her during the goblin crisis: in my game, Ven's daughters are twin and he gut mix-up in their names). Now Ven is sure that my player is the killer...
It seems the hard copy ofthis issue just became "unavailable". Did it go out of print? Will there be more copies printed?

We're *almost* sold out. We just adjusted inventory to make the last copies available.
We're discussing the possibilities of reprinting, but we haven't yet determined if we anticipate enough demand to sell through another run or not.

Sorry, a few more questions. If I order it now, and I have a couple of pre-orders in my purchase order will you hold a copy for me until they all ship? Or if, when my pre-orders are ready, there isn't a copy avaiable, I'm SOL?
And how are PDF's handled in the same order? Are they downloadable immediately?
Thanks,
Greg
Will a print of this version ever be available again? I just started with Chapter 1 hoping to find a good module to run with a group.
Man - everyone loves chapter 1!! I want to continue, and while we are not finished with Chtp. 1 yet I'd like to be ready. I hate PDF's for more reasons then are worth noting.
EDIT: I guess I can just look for a used one if you don't want to reprint it.
We're certainly looking into the logistics and possibility of reprinting Pathfinder #2. But those plans to reprint aren't in stone yet; checking the used bookstores or places like Ebay might be a good bet in the meantime.
I work in a game store, I can attest that people are still learning about (and still buying) the first Pathfinder series. However, we are losing some sales because the second part is not available. And I get at least two or three questions about part two every week.
Reprint, reprint, reprint!

Seconded on the reprint! My partner has decided to run RotRL for his STAP group once we're finished (we're about halfway through) after weeks of mutual squeeing over the prospect of my running CotCT. He can run from pdf but it's so much better to have the physical books, and not being able to track down Skinsaw (well, other than being hideously overcharged for second hand copies in Amazon marketplace, I'd much rather give my money to Paizo) is all that's preventing me from buying all 6 back issues.
My gaming society also hosted a national competition a couple of weeks ago where I pointed out Pathfinder to a few people at one of the LGS stalls. Several were interested, but not having the second volume available to peruse (and the owner having no idea if he'd ever be able to get hold of it again) put a lot of people off, again, whilst we all agreed pdfs are an awesome resource for printing out handouts and so forth, most would prefer to have a print copy for when they're actually running.

I am running my group through this adventure and i was looking at the section on magnimar and its says on one of the pages that there is downloadable content about magnimar on page 63. Whhere can I find this and does every issue of the pathfinder come with downloadable content?
thanks
Jamie
Hi-Res, update map is located HERE.
Will there be any changes in the reprint (errata, etc.) or will it be the same as the first printing?It will be a straight reprint. In order for us to do this economically, we need to keep the printing plates the exact same as they were.

Ricky got the first reprint, Ricky got the first reprint...
Ahem, erm I mean I am of course delighted to be so honoured (QE).

The great thing as I've said many times is seeing the way these work when they are being played, and the ton of great ideas that players and DMs put on the adventure in their own game sessions. So thanks for the feedback chaps, it's always inspirational to future adventures and of course as greg, greer, kortes, leati, louge and everyone continues to up the ante I'll hopefully be able to improve as well.
We are putting the final touches on a reprint of #2, and once we give the go ahead to the printer, it will take about 6 weeks to get here. I expect that we will give that go ahead this coming week.

I can't believe this book is $50.00 on the secondary market.
Since your company is supporting 3.5. I'm also gonna carry some 3.5 material in my retail store. So I went to restock on all the Pathfinder Runelord series. Only to discover #2 is out of print.Makes it hard to carry the whole line when one issue is out of print.
Plz give the go ahead at the printer. Summer is coming and retailers need this on our shelves.

Well someones head just swelled up to 10 times the normal size. :)
My group is enjoying this so far. I really like the Varisian feats. Super-fun. I'm a NG summoning cleric of Cayden with a longspear. Good times. Since I'm human I took the first level of rogue for a little tactical damage and the ability to search for traps. Speaking of Varisian feats, the Varisian tatoo 3/day spells will lose a lot of punch when PRPG characters start having free cantrips. (I rarely have a chance to use those 3 acid splashes anyway from the conjuration one).
Anyway, it's fun. We just got past the "scarecrows," which was inventive and well written. We haven't figured out what that key goes to yet...ugh.
My DM has complained that in the first module and in this one, that some numbered places on the maps don't seem to have corresponding text areas in the section, and sometimes the text box for that number is somewhere else where she didn't think to look for it. So I don't know exactly what that is all about. A couple times the module uses a monster that doesn't have a stat block included and it's not a standard creature. (I think that only happened once really, unless you count the dread ghoul or whatever that guy was).
Can't wait until this Saturday to play another installment. My one friend is this douchey CN ranger that we always have to deal with. I always end up being that keep-the-party-together-guy, no matter what I'm playing; It gets tiring sometimes. (Rest of party: NG dwarven shoanti-raised barbarian, CN sorcerer, and NG Cleric of that angelic lady- goddess.)
