Somehow GaryCon in Lake Geneva, WI did not make the first list above. Just want to make doubly sure that everyone sees that it runs March 8-11 and we'll try to have the snow cleared for Tonya! Meanwhile, congrats to the new campaign coin recipients and to Paul Trani, who probably qualified for that 5th star years ago.
Dearest darling Linda, you are one of very many wonderful people I have met and spent happy hours with through PFS. I had the good fortune to be a VO for close to 4 years, and I've been playing PFS since January in year zero. I don't want this ever to end. My situation has changed somewhat, and I don't get to as many cons as before, but when I do I still encounter friendly people throughout the room - it's a joyous occasion! I've met Auke, Karim and Florent from Europe. I've undoubtedly been at tables with several others from the international lodges and hundreds here in the US. They are all important to me. But one of my favorite memories is the trivia game at PaizoCon a couple of years ago with a certain bright-eyed, dark haired young lady leading our table. Jorsal of Lauterbury for the win! Thank you for sharing with us, your extended family of thousands...
Mark, this is an excellent blog on what promises to be one of the best books in a long time. I haven't read a major book cover-to-cover in a while, but this will be one of those times. If it's as good as you make it sound, and knowing you a little bit I'm certain that it is, I'll be tracking you down at GenCon for an autograph in my copy.
My favorite author scores again - I'm here to tell you that he probably even designs them in his sleep! Must remember to ask his darling wife...
You had us at ultrasonic whistle...welcome aboard!
You are a paragon of leadership, sir. I salute you!
Just wanted to give a standing ovation to you for the holy books!
For at least 30 years I've ruled that it simply follows you at whatever velocity as long as you're on or near the ground. It is a disk of force with nothing to impede it's progress, but it does follow you, so you can't ride on it, although other characters may do so within weight limitations, of course. It is dependent on height above ground and it's position relative to the caster - nothing else. In the absence of any definition of what constitutes an abnormal speed, any speed you might achieve is normal by default. As Aberrant Templar correctly notes, this can only matter in a combat situation. I believe that being more restrictive on it's speed limitations is an unnecessary complication to running the game.
Enough with the criticism! The judging rules do not matter nearly as much as the fact that this is a great item! This will exist in my home campaigns whether or not it makes it into a Paizo product because it meets the criteria that matter to players - it is USEFUL, it is AFFORDABLE and it has STYLE. I personally did not vote for any item that cost 25,000 or more for these reasons.
Put me in the "Definitely Buy" column. Looks great!
WelbyBumpus by any name has been putting out great mods for over a decade in my memory. Bring your "A" game - this author has been known to even kill off his wife's certed animal companion in the debut of one of them - and the replacement she bought 30 minutes later! Good memories! |
