Is there a reason this isn't showing up in my Pathfinder Modules subscription? My last shipped module was The Demon Within, but the next module to ship it says is Tower of the Last Baron.

Dryder (Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Subscriber), Tue, May 13, 2008, 05:04 AM

It says the same for me! Any info?

Me three! And I've got it set so that my Pathfinder ships on my Module subscription. ARRRGGGHH!

I just checked mine, and me four.

Not a subscriber! Unrelated question: Where in Golarion does this take place?

The subscriptions page is a bit off. Gary, Lord of All Code, is working on making it tick better and its getting the help it needs.

Despite what it says, Flight of the Red Raven *is* the next module coming out and slated to be shipped to subscribers soon.

In Galt, near the Boarwood and continues a bit south.

Look at the pretty shiny Pathfinder Branding!

edit: lol..my answer was two posts above.

In Galt, huh? So will the bloody, revolutionary nature of the country be explored?

Or in the downloads?
The module is 'ready to be shipped' and usually I have it available to download at this time... :)

I think it's because this is a standalone module, not part of the subscription.

It's a part of the subscription, I believe.

This is a Pathfinder Module and so it has to be part of any pathfinder module subscription. There isn't anything like a stand alone pathfinder module.

what level are the PC's at the end?

Why can't this info be printed on the cover????

If Paizo want people to buy these Modules it would help the buyer link them together if we knew the level at the end of the mod.

Chris Mortika (Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Chronicles, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber), Mon, Jun 2, 2008, 04:44 PM

This is a lot of crunchy fun. Thanks, David. It's one of those modules I'd want to run with a co-DM. ("Entombed with the Pharaohs" is another.)

A note and a question:

As Guennarr said. It is a Pathfinder Module, so yes, it is a part of the subscription. If you're experiencing problems with your subscription you should send an email to customer service.

There actually is something like a stand-alone Pathfinder module, though, Guennarr. There are three: D0, TC1, and D1.5. I don't know if they go in the subscription or not, but they are 16 pages and therefore aren't normal Pathfinder modules.

The starting level is on the front cover. You can always safely assume characters will gain 1 or 2 levels in an adventure. :)

None of those are part of the subscription. The subscription includes only the regularly scheduled 32-page modules.

There you go. Answers from on high.

Thanks Vic! ^_^

Thinking more about my previous post.

The prison is magic. Magic things happen. None of the following has to be the case, because it's magic.

But...

Spoiler:

Never mind. Math stuff. It's magic. Just go with that.

I like the cover, too. It reminds me of the Iron Heroes stuff. Is it the same artist?

The cover artist is Eric Deschamps.

Just got this as PDF via my subscription, looks fun.

One thing that caused me immediate hilarity was the use of Finnish names. Most of the NPCs in Azurestone seem to have Finnish (or pseudo-Finnish) names, and there's a house called "Sahtisauna" -- which means pretty much what it's described as, "The Sahtisauna is a combination bathhouse and brewery".

Nothing wrong with that, it's an obscure language that probably sounds "alien" enough for most people. For us Finns, though, it's one thing that you'd have to change if running the module -- I have a hard time picturing my players talking to an inhabitant of a fantasy town named Antero Ikonen and keeping a straight face :D

Heh. When this adventure got integrated into Golarian it ended up farther south than I had expected. :-)

Yeah, I have to say Galt seemed like a pretty odd choice to me too, I think it would've made a lot more sense to place it at least as far north as Ustalav/Lastwall, if not even further.

Joseph Reynolds (Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Pathfinder Chronicles, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber), Sun, Sep 7, 2008, 08:53 AM

So I just tried to run this as a one-shot and was sorely disappointed. It has a lot of potential, but was unclear in crucial points. For instance, when presented with the false trail vs. the real trail, my players successfully found the real trail. Unfortunately, I could not figure out where the trail picked up in the book.

The initial romp through the forest also seemed a bit bizarre.

Perhaps I just didn't put enough time into game prep, and that would be my fault as a DM. Therefore, rather than actually say this is a bad review, take it rather as a warning to be prepared to spend a couple hours ahead of time figuring out how the module relates to itself.

For now, Dungeon Crawl Classics will continue to be my favorite one-shot adventures :)

It looks like book distribution (via Ingram) never received this one.

After checking the website of the distributor that serves Ingram, it looks like they currently have 20 on order. So, they should be showing up there soon. I have no idea why they haven't ordered it previously, but I'll do some poking around and perhaps find out.
