My daughter is stationed on the USS Nimitz now (she just joined the Navy late 2012)...maybe she will pick up a core rulebook to read while she is there and be ready to play next time she comes home!!

She was reporting to duty about the same time this blog was posted...

I'm going to do the pirate crew sent to delay earlier than written. I 'want' one of my pcs to kill one of those guys.

Isn't that written as happening on Day 2?!

Tim

I would like to cancel my sidecart order and couldn't see how to do that...I was able to find the item at my local store and went ahead and purchased it there.

Thanks,
Tim

Its specified that 4 others have been press ganged along with the PCs, but no names are mentioned. Did you have anyone particular in mind as to who these other 4 would be?

I was wondering the same thing, but then I thought maybe he meant the other recruits that have only been on board a few days: Sandara, Rosie, "Cog", and Shortstone. The paragraph before their descriptions calls them recent "recruits".

Tim

BOSS.

Question: will there only be one of each? I understand there's already a TON packed in here, and I'm still going to buy it regardless.

Nonetheless, there are some creatures that are just probably not going to be alone. Regardless of setting, I'm willing to bet that 1 Kobold or 1 Goblin won't be cutting it.
The Beginner's Box will help that a bit (been lovin' it), but there are others.

Also: Dragons. Will there be one for each type and each size, or one per type? If the latter, will they all be the same size, or will you draw the sizes out across the types in order to hit all the bases?

Copied from above description: With multiple pawns for commonly encountered creatures

Not sure how many multiples but I am sure kobolds and goblins are what they consider commonly encountered creatures

I just put a dollop of nail laquer on the bottom of mine. :) so far it's been enough.

That was what my mom did to all my Star Wars figures to keep them identifiable from my friends figures!

I have read and reread the skills chapter, and I have a question. Does it still cost 2 skill points for each rank in a non-class skill? Because if it does, I completely missed it. It appears, at least in the manner I read it, that all skill ranks cost 1 skill point, but you only get the +3 bonus on class skills. Is this correct? Or am I mssing something?

Master Arminas

You are correct!

Not quite; all potential targets have to be adjacent to each other, not you.

Benefit: As a standard action, you can make a single attack at your full base attack bonus against a foe within reach. If you hit, you deal damage normally and can make an additional attack (using your full base attack bonus) against a foe that is adjacent to the first and also within reach. You can only make one additional attack per round with this feat. When you use this feat, you take a –2 penalty to your Armor Class until your next turn.

Yes, the one to the North is adjacent through the diagonal to the East and West...West is adjacent to N and S, etc...however NE is not adjacent to SE, SW, or NW...

Awesome!

The slots for 1 PM and both 6 PM could be changed to specific mods based on request/interest.

My son and I just started playing in Pathfinder Society games (just hit level 2) and would be interested in playing in low level mods on Wednesday.

Thanks,

Hi all,
My son and I are interested in playing in PFS games in the near future and I just want to be prepared for our first game. We have been playing mainly 4E and LFR for the last couple years.

1) Is it OK to create our characters with PCGen and print them out? We will be following the creation rules from the guide but I am not sure how strict the rules are concerning the sheet being used.
2) My son is creating a Druid and will have an animal companion. I am assuming the animal will already know the 'tricks' and not need to be trained one trick per scenario?
3) Is there anything else we need to be concerned with going in to our first PFS game?

Any advise or first game watchouts would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Tim
