Not a problem and I just pre-ordered a copy of Paths of Power. I look forward to seeing this soon.Good deal! I hope so. I've been taking part in the open playtest of the Advanced Player's Guide as well so there may be some comparison by me of the two types of witches. In the one campaign I was planning I was working out Witch as a Sorcerer bloodline though...
Unless there is some reason you can't have them, may I please suggest an upcoming Bestiary include the lupin race? I have the write up for them in the one Dragon hardcover Paizo put out a ways back. Also can we please put back the Werebear? My other main totem is Grizzly so I have interest in potentially playing ursine humanoids.
There are certain places I could see new races existing but folks would think them something else. Specifically anthropomorphic animal races. I can imagine a Golarion version of the lupin existing in Darkmoon Vale where they get mistaken for werewolves all the time. In Cheliax they could pose as Tieflings and few would be the wiser...
Just got it a few weeks ago and it follows Arcane as far as quality goes. I'm not sure about the weapon choice for the one deity, a deity whose sacred beast is another of my totems known for strength and power but the favored weapon of the deity is a sword and not an axe? The author and those that have read this know of what I speak and it's not a complaint as the weapon chosen is one that takes advantage of great strength. Interesting, I'm going to keep an eye out for more from this company. Exactly, although reading the entry did something for me that you could not have anticipated in that it sparked a flip in focus in some of my story telling efforts. Basically the entry on Brun was a kind of awareness notice from one of my totems. Which begs the question of what might Brun's reaction might be to a race of humanoid and humanized bears?
Heh, I bark at them before work and get a phone call that the book has arrived around 9 PM by a room mate. I still have yet to read it through but it looks good so far. The one thing that caught my eye right away was the Musketeer Combat Style for Rangers pg. 185. Good start but the way combat styles work now you need more there. When I finished reading this I'll make a more complete write up to flesh out the style for use with the Pathfinder Ranger. I see a lot of potential here.
A part of me hates to say this but this volume is the one I am most excited about in the whole freaking series. PCs get to visit a museum and play around! Never saw Night at the Museum but I've enjoyed many a story and heard numerous OTR shows where part of the adventure takes place in some place like this. I wish I could afford to visit local museums more often but visiting them in a virtual manner is the next best thing.

I have Divine Power ordered and waiting for it to arrive next week. Couldn't find it on Amazon but I'm getting it through FRPGames.
I heard about Arcane Magic on Atomic Array and bought a copy. I'm very much impressed... Yes, I am very much looking forward to the Divine book. The other sourcebook sounds like it will be worth checking out as well.
I am thinking of starting up something of a new adventure path of my own locally but I'm having trouble thinking of who to make the big bad end boss. I'm thinking Wilderness oriented campaign in a kind of Frozen North type world. I am looking for some bits of advice from the boards. 1) One of the main books I am adapting to this is Frostburn which was one of my favorite environment books from 3rd Ed. How would you adapt the Frost Mage prestige class and especially specialization in cold spells as presented in Frostburn to Pathfinder RPG? 2) Major monsters, I am anticipating the new bestiary coming out but I'm still wondering what sort of major nasty I can make as the one behind everything. A part of me is thinking on revisiting Rise of the Runelords with another one waking up but this time instead of such a focus on stone giants I will be using a lot of frost giants. Were any of the Runelords associated with a frozen territory?
I heard about Arcane Magic on Atomic Array and bought a copy. I'm very much impressed. Suffice to say I will be very interested in the Divine Magic version even more as I play Rangers more often than not but as I am usually the GM I needed to get Arcane Magic and see if I would allow it to be used by my players. It passed the test. I may or may not use all the bloodlines but I really enjoyed that portion of the book. My only complaint is with the layout, more specifically the spells which I thinks should have been the last chapter, not the first. But that is a minor quibble and I really liked the Genie and Nightmarish bloodlines for sorcerers. Although for different reasons. I so want to make a villain for my players of the nightmare bloodline.
OK, time for the resident wolf man pain in the tail to give his dastardly opinion. First off this is great news since I like the tweaks they made in the PFRPG. What would I like to see get revised to the new rules? Tome of Horrors (all 3 providing they cross reference with the Bestiary coming out soon to make sure the same monsters are not in both books) Grimtooth ('Nuff said) Glades of Death and Dead Man's Chest Book of Taverns Bard's Gate Stuff from the Sword and Sorcery line including the critter books and the magic books (I was a contributor to Relics and Rituals 2 and would love to see the spells I sent in and got printed redone for Pathfinder) as well as the class books and adapt the Carnival to Golarion. Especially the Carnival of Shadows; that was simply too good and nasty a concept to be consigned to the dustbin of gamer history.
It's been what, a year now since this was promised? I still want the book but I am starting to get angsty since I have Razor Coast on pre-order. I like the concept of the book and while a part of me is getting impatient, my main totems are wolf and bear, so if the pdf and the book come my way by October I'll be happy to see the finished book.
I'll just be patient then. This is so far the only book for my preferred system to do much of anything with Polynesian culture. I have my Tiki obsession to think of so while I am getting sick of waiting for RC. I will wait for the finished product to be done and in my paws.
Anything new about Razor Coast for those of us that have put in a pre order? I'm starting to think I may need to ask Pele herself to help you out. Either that, Nick, or have her light a fire in a location of her choosing. I am a witch and a neo-pagan. I can find some ritual to Pele if look hard enough...
Just out of curiosity could anyone do a Sibeccai Ranger of Sarenrae? Physically he's a 6'7" 300 lbs humanoid jackal with black fur, orange tiger stripes and an orange ankh on his chest (all Sibeccai in this have an ankh somewhere on their body marking them as belonging to Sarenrae, an idea I had to adapt the race to Pathfinder from Arcana Evolved). He is a desert ranger/dervish with twin scimitars, in Legacy of Fire he is a native of Osirion who hired on as a mercenary to kill gnolls. If he survives House of the Beast he's taking that axe as a trophy, the Carrion King's axe, as his way to benefit from the All Gnolls Must Die! feat.
I'm waiting for the print book to come out although the pdf is available now I hear. M&M and True20 work on very similar principals so what works for the one more or less works for the other. But in any case, I can work out most conversions myself. I'm just waiting to hear when it will get shipped out and to my door.
Steam Punk pistols and rifles with or without bayonets are excellent ideas. If Paizo ever does an item card set for Steam Punk adventures with either or both those items I know I'd want a copy.
. Although it looks like pieces of this are drawn from the bones of Al-Qadim.Hmm...maybe I'll have to bust out my old Al-Qadim stuff now and adapt it to the region. I had a few problems with Al-Qadim initially that necessitated house rules to correct. The fact it was bereft of furry races for one but there are plenty of patches for that. The other was the Corsair kit which excluded rangers, my problem with that was that a Corsair or Pirate warrior is something a ranger would excel at. I understand that it might have been because it was a sea based character but my counter to that is that if played as a druid's answer to the paladin, i.e. a sacred warrior of nature then the sea is a natural environment. Now for this I would use Monte Cook's sibbeccai from Arcana Unearthed/Evolved as a possible race and foil for the gnolls but that's just me. I'll also be looking to see what info they might provide for playing a reformed gnoll or at least a renegade as Drizzt was a rogue drow.
OK, I hope I just fixed the credit card issue for this new Adventure Path. I also hope when my copy of Legacy of Fire #1 is shipped there will be a copy of this puppy along with it. I also may need to fix things so I can get, at least retroactively the last module for the last AP. Drow don't impress me but I was enjoying the bestiaries.
