I trying to find somewhere to learn how to play. I live in Avon, I'm willing to go down to Greenwood, but was wondering if there was any place that anyone knows about closer to my home?

You might try Games 2d4 over on Raceway Road.

Just south of Rockville on Raceway, Games To "d6" For with the d6 an image of the appropriate die

Did anyone from Paizo come down with Con-funk? Also, as aside to visiting Fountain Square in Indy, stop by the Arsenal Gameroom off Virginia Ave on the way. Started playing in a weekly game there and all the tables have been PF whenever I've been there :)

I always thought the old one looked like the logo for American Eagle Outfitters.

Ah, I think this is an area where the TV show has obscured what happened in the books.

Werthead, I take it you've not read 'Dance with Dragons' yet ;)

As for bribes, I'm pretty sure if you got Lisa a 1978 Han Solo MOC figure, signed by Harrison Ford, you'd be first on the shipping list forver.

** spoiler omitted **

what's MOC?

Que? He adlibed the line the priestess said right before he did?

(going off topic, I've found it interesting how the BBC credits differ from the Sci-fi credits. No body count for example.)

I might be late on this, but he adlibbed it him saying it when he noticed how 'blah' everyone was. As for the survivor's count, the first several episodes of season one didn't have it on the opening credits. they started doing it when they started having the minimontage from each episode at the start.

He'll get mugged for his 'stache.

I was hoping that he wouldn't leave that. I'm more of afraid of it mugging ppl than the opposite.

One those big pipe ones like a cathedral's I hope. Indy needs more organ music.

A spell to go in the book with Bigby's Groping Paw and Bigby's Fondling Fingers.

What that spell in an early OotS strip? Evard's Forceful Intrusion?

And somewhere, a guy with a wooden-magno doll fetish opens his box and goes, "WTF?"

For those who don't get it. He's claiming offense at the portrayal of the iconic fighter, and how often he's dying or getting overwhelmed in the various art, as opposed to all the iconics for other classes. Not offense at the depiction of blood or being attacked.

Also, he claims that he's offended by the suboptimal creation of said iconic fighter, what with being both TWF and using two different kinds of weapons for it, says it's influencing his players to make actively bad feat selections.

It's partly trolling, and partly protesting how melee martial builds are at the bottom.

Actually he's parodying the "Pathfinder covers w/o sexy art" thread., and how some people in America have an issue with sexual images or topics but not violence.

Now if he talked about Dungeons Iconic Paladin getting chewed up, that would be valid.

That 2009 photo of Lilz, Lisa, and myself is one of my favorite GenCon photos! Good year and good times!

I was wondering who that was on the right. I can't believe it's already been 4 years since Pathfinder launched! When I snagged my Kharzoug cover copy of PF#1 Lisa was working the register. I got to chat with James Jacobs for a few minutes at the front of the booth and a few minutes after meeting Lilith, she and I took on the dungeon of old Cosmo's avatars(Swords of Sin dungeon delve) that Chris Self ran us throught (I think). I played it twice and F. Wesley was running it the other time. Good times :)

Happy Birthday!!

Fyi I questioned the apparent double billing the first time I ordered something from Frog God. It wasn't a double bill, just a double reciept. Sounds like this might be the same thing here.

Yeah after checking the 3 emails I received about the purchase I figured that could be it and I'd wait and see if a 2nd charge popped up. Glad I decided to check this thread this morning. I thought I'd deleted that post once I decided to wait and see.

Grr Pay Pal, think My card might have charged by FGG website and my paypal account dinged. What's the best way to shoot Bill Webb an email? A link on the FGG website?

Having gone through the proofs, I can tell you that the book was 794 pages before Clark added the legal appendix, has over 750 monster in it, 7 appendices of templates, new planes, new feats, new poison types,...

Nice, now I'm trying to remember how thick Ptolus is. Not sure which room my copy is in atm :(

Do yourself a favor and don't wait too long :) Seriously, preorders close real soon.

Clark

lol, was thinking of when I got home Clark :)

Posting to remind myself later :)

Someone in another thread mentioned Lisa saying something to that effect but I thought he was trying to stir something up or misinformed. Wow, and Congratulations!

For a version of dwarves I actually quite like, check out how Bioware handles them in Dragon Age—those dwarves are excessively crude and foul mouthed and have a really backstabby kind of personality. Almost like gentler, hairier drow.

There's a dwarf in Dragonage II that I didn't even know was a dwarf till I started playing the game and saw him next to other characters.

Why not just set the Epic level stuff on another continent, like say Casmaron around the Pit of Gormuz? If the epic stuff is so busy fighting each other they would have very little effect on the rest of the world.

What would stop a level 47 Wizard from waking up one day, teleporting over Avistan and taking it over within 6 hours?

The field around the Inner Sea continents that prohibit the physical entry of such powerful Beings,usually with explosive results? Ask Aroden about it...

Is there anyway to do this?

Yes. Ask your GM politely, inquire if it'd be a reasonable feat. Unless your game uses some sort of expansion material that keys off of Spellcraft checks, it's just a feat that's slightly better than Skill Focus. I think it'd be a perfectly reasonable feat.

What AMiB said or even a trait, maybe a social or Faith one.

If you were to portray dwarves how you want to, what would that look like? I know you've mentioned no Scottish accents, but beyond that?

I second this!

My money is on "hairless."

Napoleon kittens are way underpowered. Viking kittens are where it's at.

What about pirate kittens?

That would bring up Ninja Kittens, course kittens try to be that already anyway.

Lets dance!

And now I have a David Bowie song stuck in my head. Thanks. (goes looking for his dad's pellet gun)

Congratulations. Good to see you back at Paizo

Congratulations!

It could be Sebastian.

...sure the editorial feedback would go so well. And people think the writer's pit is scary now.

Hello,

I'm trying to start a Pathfinder group in the central Indiana area. I have over two decades of experience running RPG games and can guarantee some fun times!

The sessions would be held at Gamerz just south of County Line road in Greenwood. Days of the week and times to meet are open for discussion. I need at least four people to get started, but will take up to eight.

I create my own adventures, but I'm not opposed to running published adventures from time to time.

Thanks

Adraxis, I'm definitely interested. email me at gcvargo at yahoo dotcom.

edit: I missed a letter in the email first time.

I was wondering when someone would notice, well someone beside Gary. Gary called me on it on my first post.

Teter was post-stalking you at 10pm pacific?

I've got quite a few tags... what does one need for Pathfinder Superscriber? I assume Paizo Superscriber is ALL subscriptions...

Adventure Path, Modules, Companions, RPG, Pathfinder Tales. I think that's it but maybe mappacks too. Those are all of mine.

It looks like this.

doh!, I got the 'd' and 'ol' right at least.

I think it is Paizo Superscriber.

Same, where's Taig or Daigol at?

Maybe I'm having naughty thoughts about Paula Deen. Did you ever think of that? well!?! DId you!?!?!

... Calms self...

Sorry. Massive unhealthy quantities of butter get me riled up.

Think of how any lobsters reading this must feel by now...

Sure, if your bathrobe is a monk robe, and you remember your ring of protection, amulet of mighty fist, bracers of armor, cloak of resistance, belt of physical stats, headband of wisdom...

This got me thinking of Kick-Ass but still liking this thread :)

There should be relevant maps for most of the encounter areas. I'm not sure about the town parts of the festival at the start. you can usually approximate outdoor stuff even if it's shown on a map in the book. Also don't worry about transcribing the maps exactly as they appear in book itself. Main point right now is to keep the game rolling and have fun. If you do slip up on something, you're friends should understand that you're having to learn even more new stuff than they are and should understand. Have fun with it!

love the cover art for Ameiko. That was the one gripe i had about Burnt Offerings artwork, her picture didn't seem right for her. Kinda strung out or...greasy. I dunno how to really say it.

I keep hearing from gamers that Dungeon and Dragon were "yanked" "without warning or explanation." However, everything I've ever seen posted by a Paizo employee indicates it was a rather amicable agreement not to renew a license that was set to expire. Do you have any evidence to support your recollection of events?

As I recall, Paizo actually asked for and was given a few additional months so they could finish Savage Tide.

Temporal stasis, kinda expensive but good solution.

Imprisonment good but requires a freedom spell to release.
Unguent of Timelessness very good and cheap solution.

As someone posted after mine, a contigency with either a dispel magic or freedom spell keyed to when a consciousness enters the body.

Hmm, I was just looking at some old threads of mine and I'm trying to remember how Manshoon in Forgotten Realms handled this. I think he had a unique spell called Stasis Clone.

Imprison spell? Of course, that could make it tricky to get out once you're shunted to that body...

According to Santana, it's hallucinagenic damage :)

Didn't Nic Cage name his son Kal-El?

The problem is that Then why is he on the $100 bill and Mount Rushmore?

Don't forget Hamilton on the $10.

is nine tenths of the law.

ten tenths if in Cheliax.

Eh..I was scrolling up from the posts. I didn't read the first umpteen lines of the description :)

I don't see this as a product that they would playtest, It is more like an Bestiary type product, which they don't playtest.

I had a good laugh when I saw this title's thread way back. The OP definitely intended it :)Just another month till the 5th book, can't wait!

edit: started watching that guy's youtube review. Definitely a wtf for people who've not read the books. I don't have HBO so I'm not watching the series but I plan to catch it on netflix or on dvd.

hmm, need to look up that thread about hook mountain massacre where Logue and I kinda talked about SoF&I.

The sandboxy/kingmaker referenceds kinda make me wonder if you could start out as privateers hired by Cheliax or a different Inner Sea nation sent to break the Free Captain's hold on the trade routes to Mwangi. Just an idea though.

Is Dungeon a Day still going?

Most recent update was June 6th. I've not really been over there since Monte isn't as hands on anymore.
