Excellent!


I've read every adventure path so far, and this one was excellent. Brilliant NPCs, varied settings (while still remaining almost all urban), and an excellent plot. My only complaint would be that it wasn't initially advertised that it wouldn't be all urban. While it is almost entirely urban, don't oversell it as such. Edge of Anarchy opens the campaign brilliantly.

Decent rules; Roleplay still possible; Realism is dead.


Basically, what the title says. The rules are decent, if extremely different. Roleplaying is still possible depending on who is playing. The big problem, though, is that realism in the game is dead. The rules are no longer realistic, even from a "wizards and dragons" point of view.

Perhaps realism is the price of balance. If so, I'll take the realism.

Great art except the backs, easily solved


I think the art on the cards themselves is great, but the backs are lacking as far as suspension of disbelief. Putting them in card sleeves solves this problem well.

$10 for twelve pages that are easy to print out yourself? No thanks.


In third edition, the character sheets were excellent quality four-page, class-specific and impossible to print out at home. What does fourth edition give you? Four two-page generic sheets, not worth any price. This should be a free PDF download. Also, Wizards falsely claimed that it was 32 pages, so it loses more points there.

Great regional guide.


Another great supplement for the Pathfinder Chronicles line, and one that makes it easy to run the many modules set in Darkmoon Vale.

The ideal plague adventure.


In a world where magic can cure diseases, plague-based plots are hard to create. This adventure fixes that with explanations for why it can't be cured backed up by the rules. After that, the plot is great.

Great adventure.


This is arguably the best undead-based adventure I've seen, and many appear to agree with me -- it sold out first, and it got up to 150 pounds on Ebay. If you haven't read this, pick it up when it reprints next month.

An inn for every occasion


I got this out of the Treasure Chest. This is my first map pack product, and the quality and variety of the maps ensured that I will almost certainly buy the others.

Good, if you have good eyes.


I got this out of the Treasure Chest. The text was small and blue on a white background, but that didn't bother me much because my eyesight is good. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone with bad eyesight, but other than that it's great.

Excellent. Buy it.


Great. All of the monsters are vastly improved. Especially the bugbears, trolls and goblins.
