Unless I'm mistaken, the inimitable Canuck composer, Howard Shore, created the music for The Fly rather than Christopher Young (although C. Young may very well have done the music for the sequel...)

Hi there :)

I have a quick question about this order....upon checking the e-receipt for the order, it very quickly dawned on me that I seem to have had my Pathfinder Advantage applied, but then not the PFRPG discount (despite it saying quite clearly on both the webpage upon checkout as well as my confirmation email), based on the fact that I'm being charge 85% of cover price for all the items I purchased. For example, each of the Pathfinder Society PDFs is ordinarily #3.99, and I was charged $3.39 each (rather than $3.05), the Great Beyond is ordinarily $19.99 and I was charged $16.99 (rather than $15.29) etc.

It doesn't seem like any of these are pre-orders, subscription items, or any otherwise verbotten items, so is this a glitch (in which case what can I do about it?) or am I missing some painfully obvious fact and I'm just being dense? ;-)

Cheers,
Colin

Goodman Games is having a 50% sale on their d20 products (including DDCs), and not merely on PDFs but print versions as well.

I was wondering if Paizo would be placing their GG d20 products on sale as well, or whether it would be more appropriate to order directly from the Goodman webstore (Joe Goodman indicated on ENWorld that it would be up to individual vendors to choose to take part in the sale or not).

Just curious (want to snatch up a few items before they sell out completely).

Also, my apologies if this has been previously answered.

Cheers,
Colin

Hi there; I haven't received an email yet informing me of my ability to download the PDF file version of the adventures, and when I go to the subscription page I can't find the appropriate link (although sleep deprivation may have something to do with this....see below ;-) ;-).

I know I should have mentioned this sooner, but the birth of my son has kinda thrown a monkey-wrench in my ability to read/keep up to date with message board postings.

If someone from customer service could enable my ability to download the PDF, or just send me a quick email telling me how to do so and/or point me in the right direction, I'd be most appreciative! :) :)

Thanks in advance, eh.

Cheers,
Colin

And like clockwork, the hungry, pooping beast that is my boy calls to me to be changed....well, it was fun being back on the web while it lasted ;-)

Hello all; I recently ran into a rules debate regarding the poison effects of monsters.

I have always assumed (and found nothing in the rules to the contrary....but also nothing to the affirmative) that if a character is bitten/stung/etc. multiple times over the course of a combat, whether by the same creature or multiple creatures, that saving throws against poisons must be made for every successful hit that does damage against the character (depending on the type of poison, of course), and that the effects of multiple failed saves will continue to cause ability losses.

A couple of my players on the other hand disagreed, saying that poison effects from wounds from different creatures would certainly stack, but that once you've failed one saving throw against, say, a giant scorpion's stinger, you no longer need to make further saves against [i]that particular scorpion/i], having already been poisoned by it. Again, I can find nothing in the rules to either support or dismiss this opinion.

Needless to say, we Rule Zeroed it in favour of my original ruling, but I am still quite curious as to what other DMs do with poison effects.

Thanks in advance for any advice that board members can provide.

Cheers,
Colin

I remember these bad boys from 2e (the second FR monstrous compendium with the hole-punched sheets if I'm not mistaken) and what I recall the strongest about them was the punishing amount of damage they could do per blow (2d6??) which has been downgraded (perhaps justifiably so) as well as their hideous energy drain (2 levels per blow, with two blows per round...again, if I'm not mistaken...my memory isn't what it used to be).

I was disappointed to not see this anywhere in the monster's description....until I saw reference to their ability to create new Skuz from the remains of those they had energy drained.

The problem is that this ability doesn't seem to be anywhere else in the monster's description. Was it cut for space, and if so, how many negative levels does the Skuz bestow per blow in 3.5e?

Cheers,
Colin

Hello there; if everything goes according to plan, this will be a log of the continuing adventures of a rag-tag group of disparate travellers seeking adventure in the decaying Kingdom of Nyrond (more or less as described in The Marklands, so prior to the more positive changes as written in the LGJ).

There will be fiendish foes to be defeated, vile cultists, corrupt officials, and of course, the machinations of both the Old One and the Scarlet Brotherhood. There will be sword-swinging action, mysterious ruins to be investigated, dire evils to be slain, and naturally more than a dash of dismal, unremitting bleakness, as befits a DM with more background in reading Lovecraft, Barker and Poe than Tolkein :) :)

The posters will be myself (Colin Lloyd, the DM) and the three players (Richard Stanton, Michael Tabor, and Aaron Sands), and I would like to invite one and all to join in and make this an entertaining account of the party's journeys together as they range across this particular corner of Oerth (and possibly to points beyond... ...)

I'm not sure if the lads in question will be posting in character or out, but I leave that to their individual tastes and preferences.

To arms, gentlemen...villany awaits the taste of your steel!

Cheers,
Colin
