So were these redesigned to allow any class to play? I remember them being focused for certain classes. Any plans on doing a new series?

They are designed for a particular class and level combination. One could make more open adventures, I suppose, but I think it would be a truly daunting task. Next in the series is 1 on 1 Adventures #12: The Journey to Riddle Canyon. From here on, they're all Pathfinder. Journey to Riddle Canyon is designed for 1 GM and 1 player, fighter level 6–8.

We have no plans to compile the 3.5 files. We're looking forward with Pathfinder.

Thanks for your reply, and whilst I won't be one of your customers I wish you good luck with Pathfinder!

Do these come with pre-generated characters ?

Well, I don't know. Does anyone have any experience with the 1-on-1 advantures? Also, these are basically conversions. Will they also be including something new in with the 11 1-on-1 modules that will be offered for this price? OTOH, for 11 modules in one book, it just might be worth the price. After all, $32 is not that bad.

Yes. While I used to game with a couple different groups, over the years those folks have moved away, left gaming, or simply irritated me too much to continue running adventures with them. I only game 1-on-1 any more. I find it to be a wonderful experience! I am excited that someone out there is finally making products for me!

Any chance of a list of which of the adventures are what level?
There was a mention earlier, but looking for more concrete info.

EDIT: Oh, and the class it's designed for would help also :P

Hmm, I had this in my cart for the next time I had spare cash. I hope there will be a reprint?

Is there some reason you're thinking it is out of stock?

I may be reading the page poorly, but as far as I can tell, I can purchase it now if I want.

(I do want it, but can't get it right this second, unfortunately.)

Well, mainly it was the big red letter text informing me that it had been removed from my shopping cart because it was unavailable. But you're right. I just added back again. Must have been a glitch of some kind.

(and it looks like Masika had a similar belief.)

Your not dreaming. I tried to order the print version just now and got told it had been removed as it was unavailable. Is this a web page glitch or is this not available for order?

Now my page says currently unavailable.

I'm inclined to think it's a glitch but we probably won't know for sure until at least tomorrow (Monday) when Paizo people can say.

I preordered mine in September, I'm dying to be able to use this product with my wife. Any word on this today?

jgbrowning, Mon, Oct 26, 2009, 12:51 PM

Hey all, things have been a bit odd with One on One Compendium printing. We printed up a run that we thought appropriately sized and we sold out of it right away. Which is, for customers and retailers, both a Yay! and Nay! moment. Yay! in that we're happy to see a Pathfinder product do well, but a Nay! moment in that it adds some additional delay in retailers being able to restock to suit their orders.

We're printing the 2nd run at the moment and books from the 2nd print run should be on shelves by November 17.

So, my apologies for the delays and confusion, to both customers as well as Paizo.

Awesome. Thanks for the update. I'll be sure to order ASAP when the 2nd printing is available.

Wow, this is great news. I want the book but hadn't ordered it yet. I'm glad it's doing well for you!

Not a glitch. Our inventory updates throughout the day as we ship stuff, and our distributor also makes changes in theirs, but checking every product in both databases all the time wouldn't be a good idea. So we recheck both inventories when people try to check out with a product, and if it has gone out of stock between the last time we checked and this time, you get that message.

Sharoth (Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Pathfinder Fiction, Planet Stories Subscriber), Mon, Oct 26, 2009, 09:19 PM

Sweet! I just got an e-mail saying that this will be shipping within the next week.

One-on-one adventures will be great for my son Nerrat and I. I don't think the "Pleasure Prison of the B'thuvian Demon Whore" is going to be the one we play though. ;-) What else do they got?

haha! I'm teaching my 9 year old niece the game, and I think we'll steer clear of that particular one as well. Does anyone know if most of the others from this company would be appropriate?

Aeshuura (Pathfinder Chronicles Subscriber), Sun, Nov 29, 2009, 12:23 PM

The most disappointing purchase that I have made so far. They are so specific that I can't use them without tweaking it so that I make sure that the PC has help. Additionally, they are not good for building a solid foundation for a starting character, which I thought the concept would be ideal for.

Oh well, at least I bought the PDF version instead of the Paper...

I guess I can still use it, just not in the way I had hoped...

Kohl McClash, Sun, Jan 31, 2010, 06:20 AM

The designer did state what class and level each mod was designed for so I wouldn"t be surprised if a simple tweak wouldnt allow for it to be changed for another class. That said, I like the idea of this 1 on 1 game session when the full group cant make a session but 1 might still wants to play...nice quick fill in.
