Me plus three.

Thanks for the tip on the Radaee App. It is blazing fast.

With the latest update, you should have Google Play available. Open that and you will find the actual Adobe Reader app for android.

I have the Nook HD+ as well.

The problem here is really the Nook. It's processor and graphics memory are not designed for the 'large' multi-layered PDF files of the Core Rulebook, GM Guide, etc... Even with the Adobe Reader app, it only renders about five pages at a time.

It's primary design goal is for streaming video and reading epub files. Layer-intensive PDFs tax its CPU to the limit.

I love my Nook, but have an iPad on my Gaming Table wish list for this exact reason.

This 'discussion' is highly entertaining. Please continue!

I'm in the same boat here. Drives me nuts and, frankly, caused me to take most of the PDFs off my Nook.

I check it once or twice a day. Shari seems to be the only 'member' of the campaign. Though I'll admit I'm not sure if I have to join the campaign or if you have to add me.

This would be a nice little feature...

I've looked at Dreamscarred's books, yeah. They're the logical starting place for what we want to do with psychic magic, but they won't work as-is, since we're not going to do a point-based system for this type of magic. Which is why we're calling it psychic magic and not psionics–it's based on the same concept (magic/supernatural powers from the mind) but it's not the same rules. The actual rules will likely work just like magic... but will be a new category that exists alongside the categories of "arcane" and "divine" magic.

This is exciting. I have yet to allow psionics in any game I've run because I have yet to find a ruleset I like.

Dreamscarred's book is pretty good, but still not quite what I'm looking for.

Looking forward to this book. It should get here just in time for my group's downtime between Burnt Offerings and The Skinsaw Murders.

Excellent.

Thanks!

Customer Service Demigods,

Please cancel my comics subscription.

Thanks!

I'm reminded of The Delver from Legends and Lairs "Path of Shadow" book as well as the Archivist from WotC's "Heroes of Horror".

Very interested in how this one turns out.

Yeah, I'm a fanboy...

YES!

All hail ASLAN!

Sigh.

Power gaming trumps role-playing once again.
Not everything needs to converted into bonuses.
The potential backgrounds might be interesting for those who can't be bothered to dream up their own origins.
This book's still looking like a pass.

Wow Mr. Kirsch.

Not everyone has the desire to create an in-depth back story. Some folks just aren't good at it.

I understand this book might not be your particular 'cup of tea', but there's no need for the disrespectful, elitist remarks.

Welcome!

Make sure you check the ceiling above your workspace at regular intervals...

Welcome aboard the Crazy Train, Justin!

Next stop, Arkham Origins....

Dazzal - Start a new thread HERE with your location and what you want to play.

As for tips, the Beginner Box is a great place to start. Once you've played through that, grab a Core Rulebook and a 1st level module (like THIS one) and have fun!

Not quite the same as rebooting the campaign, but when I DM a new group, I use the same opening to a homebrew world and campaign. The first adventure is always a Mummy and one of the player's always gets mummy rot. I have a blast seeing how different groups handle the same situation.

That was awesome.

I want one.

I can't believe Paizo and Lone Wolf are not having this very same discussion. As stated above, I'd be willing to bet that data will be offered by Lone Wolf for Realm Works the same way it is offered for Hero Lab.

I missed the Kickstarter (due to a 9-month trip to Afghanistan), but will buying this as soon as it is available.

I have one homebrew campaign world that is distributed over several different formats. I'm all in for Realm Works to help me consolidate it.

You're the bestest!

Thanks!

S.Y.

Customer Service Demigods,

Is it too late to combine Order # 2526679 with my upcoming monthly shipment?

If it is, that's totally cool, if it's not, can you work your customer service magic for me?

Thanks!

Steve Y.

Are we close?

There are some truly tough match ups when viewing these items.

Some of them havebeen impressive, others quite good, and still others that I wish I'd though of.

Not sure what 'level' of food everyone is going for, but there is a Denny's not too far up the road. Usually pretty good to get a large group in with some notice.

There are a few other places around the hotel too.

Con and Banquet tickets: check!

35 minute drive from home to the hotel: check!

July can't get here fast enough. My first Paizocon and I'm bringing two of my kids with me. Going to be a blast, methinks!

Background, Character Sheet, Gear List, Spell List, and Sketch sent.

I will definitely be submitting.

Working on the backstory now.

Totally interested. Will give the character concept some thought and email you a submission by the deadline. I'm leaning toward a sorcerer at the moment.

I'd rather have a blueprint of the castle. The major NPC would be nice, but so long as I know if it's a (Warrior 5/Paladin 2) or a (Expert 15) I can probably stat out my own NPC. Flavorful stuff and overhead Views of the castles from the air? Complete with Sections labeled? Those are more interesting to me.

Ditto!

I tried to hold out, I really did. But just ordered it and it is on its way to Afghanistan so I can start playing.

I love the Original X-COM.

.

Anyone? Anyone? Beuller? Beuller?

I've learned that even if everything Paizo does is not to my taste, it is worth waiting for.

Okee dokee.

Thanks Sara.

Customer Service Demigods,

Any prediciton on how November/December Subscriptions are going to be?

I want to make sure my budget doesn't get killed because production suddenly gets caught up and my normal subscription costs double.

I know you can't guarantee anything, but if you could give me a 'bold assumption', it will help me plan.

Thanks!

James,

1. What is the most short-lived PC you've ever played? Race/class/name

2. What are your two favorite PCs you've ever played?

3. When creating a character from scratch, where do you start? Gameplay, PC personality, or concept? Why do you start there?

4. What are the steps you go through when designing a wondrous item?

5. What makes an item 'wondrous' - philosophically, not RAW.

Thanks!

Seems way too complicated.

The staff here has said on repeated occasions they don't care where you buy your Paizo products, as long as you buy Paizo products. I understand you're love of electronic documents.

Might I suggest you support your FLGS by purchasing dice, minis, or other gaming items that do not have electronic versions on the Paizo website.

Can't seem to overcome the technological barriers being deployed is placing on me. Reckon I'm gonna have to withdraw also.

Apologies.

Google drive is considered 'media storage' by the bluecoat filter. I've tried a few sites that I know of to post maps, info, etc... All of them have been 'filitered' so far.

Hmmn... Maps.

I'm currently deployed, so my ability to get to 'storage sites' or anything with the label 'games' in it is filtered by the bluecoat filter they use. Overly, stupidly restrictive I might add.

Roll20 is blocked (not surprised). Need some options for maps and whatnot - that said, I am not averse to foregoing maps and freeforming the tactical movement portion of combat.

Luke_Perry - Going to say no to the archtype from the APG, BUT I will remove the restrictions for animal companions for Rangers so your character can call an ape once he hits 4th level.

I've GM'd my share of 3.5, so I'm not a novice as far as GMing goes. I've done some PBem and online using VTT also.

I've read through the PF Rules a few times, but nothing gets them ingrained like playing through them.

I've started reading through "Souls for Smuggler's Shiv". If anyone in this thread wants to play through that, I'll be more than happy to GM it. If things go well, once Shiv is complete, we can discuss going through the rest of the AP.

Being a PF newbie, I'd be comfortable with a 20-point buy, core classes and races only.

Any takers?

I've been toying with the idea of GMing a module or two, not sure I'm up for a full AP. I haven't GM'd Pathfinder at all,and frankly am not super fluent with the PF Rules just yet.

If no one else steps up, I'll commit to running the first chapter of Serpent's Skull - I'd need some time to read through it first though.

Dotting for interest...

I'm going to read through the player's guide and I'll put up a character in a few hours - assuming I find a concept I like.

Dotted just to get a glimpse of the "...gentleman necromancer of fine taste".

Sent this to my kids already!

Great stuff!
