Black Pudding Pudding = AWESOME! :)

Wow im glad to know, i knew about the Con thing, but wasnt certain if raised INT raised your skillpoints retroactively or not.

Will watch this at home, dotted :)

If you were in my town (well in Demmark...) i would gladly pay $25-30 per five hour session playing with you as the GM. Either that or a much bigger 'flat' amount - sort of paying an amount for the expensive 'material components' ;) (your books, miniatures, DF terrain etc etc).

But i agree that it can probably be difficult getting players that are friends/long time players to suddenly pay... But still i think it would warrent a talk with them about your past and future expenses (and time) put into GM'ing and that you are without a job. CERTAINLY to my mind it's then only reasonable, and just, that they share the burden - and pay you.

On a slightly different note, you could simply TRY it. Advertise a new gaming group/gaming night/open game table, and also advertise the price to play. You might end up pleasently surprised to see how many might show up, maybe some other types of players, than those you usually see too. Would be important to advertise broadly, in relevant forums and shops, clubs, word-of-mouth etc. And of course also important to give your game the proper time to grow. With your skill, experience and credentials, i reckon that even paying players would LOVE your game (and gaming place) and spread that by word-of-mouth. In my experience we value good games, and the time to play them, far mor than money...! (and a really good GM is hard to find id say).

I advertised my own Pathfinder open game table (sandbox, small home town with nearby homebrew megadungeon). I just advertised it ONCE, more than half a year ago, in a small danish online forum, and still just this past week i have had 3 people apply for the game... 3 people that i have NO idea about how they heard of the game.
My game is well full though - people DO love old schooly sandbox/megadungeon games, dont they :) !

This just got me thinking of maybe advertising a new game, with a fee. I see SO many eager (experienced as well as fresh) players, that DONT have a GM (or cant find a GOOD GM).

And, something else, if you ever do a Google + game, consider me interested. Well or if i come to San Antonio.

So cool, i will look into making my own model, maybe for other cities too, like Magnimar :)

Having copied a spell into his spellbook is - for a wizard - the same as knowing the spell. That's my understanding at least.

Thank you for this sheet, i will use at the next chance :)

Concerning the favoured class bonus: the +1 skill rank does not change the rule that you cannot have more skill ranks in any individual skill than your total character level. It just means what you quote: Namely you get the +1 extra point to put into your skills... nothing more, nothing less.

I just backed this too, at the 50$ level.
Looks to be awesome!
Just backed the Pathfinder MMO too (at 15$ for the pdf of Emerald Spire, but still hope it can count)

This is awesome. So gonna try this rule! Thanks!

Ok i know it's not exactly cheap, and thus i guess out-of-this category... but still, can't help but say that a potion of cure light wounds is a great piece of starting equipment.

And, as said, never leave home without:

Rope (2x50 ft in the party at least)
ample food
ample water

This sounds AWESOME, cannot wait! :)

I love them too, thanks a lot, and VERY well done!
Frankly the idea - and execution - is so good that Paizo should put something like this out, im surprised they haven't already put out cards for the spells seeing how many other card decks they have put out for Pathfinder!

Yes!

Cure Moderate Wounds is a second level cleric spell, thus requiring caster level 3, so its price, with 19 charges left is:

2 x 3 x 15g x 19 = 1710g

And then yet more glory - and gold :)

I GM a rather 'old-schooly' sandbox/megadungeon campaign (7-8 players total, usually 3-5 participating in each session, often with 1-2 henchmen).

1) 4d6 drop lowest, assign by choice

2) Medium experience track.
But I give only HALF XP for monsters killed/overcome, but add XP for gold (1gp worth of non-magical loot = 1 XP) and XP for exploring and mapping dungeons (100 XP per mapped room).
They start at level 1, we don't follow WBL charts (and not generally/always treasure by CR either) and encounters are not always 'balanced' - meaning that CR (and treasure) depends on how deep in the dungeon they dare delve not on the average PC level.

3) Currently Core Rulebook only + GMG and bestiaries.
We might change this to add APG later (we have played only 13 sessions of this campaign and its our first Pathfinder experience and we want to grasp the core rules & content well before adding additional rules + content)

Im interested too! Dotting
