Dark Minstrel's page

I Need some recommendations on good novels or novel series other than gaming related novels (I like those, but I know where to find them).

I like all the old (beloved) cliches: grumpy old dwarves that live in mines, elves that are gaurdians of the forest, wizards, etc. NO firearms - only swords, axes, magic, etc.

I have already read and loved Tolkien and Dennis McKiernan's Mithgar Series and would like more of the same, but can't find it.

Any help would be appreciated.

According to the SRD, when the rust monster uses its Rust(Ex) ability on magical armor, the magical armor must make a constitution based reflex save that includes a +4 racial bonus. My questions are:

1) How can armor make a reflex save? Or does the character make the save?

2) How can a reflex save be constitution based? I thought reflex saves used dex. Do you make the base save for the character and add the constitution modifier?

3) What is the +4 racial bonus? Is armor a race for purposes of this save? Or does it use the character's race?

Thanks for the help.

I'm new to Pathfinder RPG, just downloaded Beta, and I am looking forward to the changes. I just started a new group on 3.5 and was planning on doing Red Hand of Doom and then City of the Spider Queen. Has anyone tried these with PFRPG? Can I play them as is, with PC's using PFRPG classes at the recommended levels? Should I start them at lower levels since there seems to be a power creep for PFRPG? And how much extra modification will it take to DM these modules? Any help would be appreciated.

Also, has anyone tried any of the Goodman Games DCC's with PFRPG?

Thanks

I've been a little bummed out since the launch of 4E (just my personal feeling - not meant to put down fans of 4E) and even changed my browser home page a few times looking for that 'right' place to call my home. I have heard about Pathfinder RPG for some time now but didn't check it out because I still like 3.5 so much.

I recently downloaded the Pathfinder Beta thinking I would just check it out, but was still determined to stick with the original 3.5. Now that I've seen it, my mind is changed and so is my browser home page. I'm going Pathfinder all the way. It is still my 3.5, but better. I feel energized again!

All I can say now is: Thank you Paizo, for doing the bold thing and continuing the evolution of the game in this direction.

I'm just kicking myself for not checking it out sooner so that I could have been involved in the playtesting. That would have been fun.

I can't wait until August. Now I just have to figure out which subscriptions I want. *rubs hands*

I'm just wondering: Is there a Pathfinder magazine, similar to the printed Dragon?
