Doesn't walk on water...but almost perfect
Tue, Aug 18, 2009, 10:37 AM
The production values on this book are great, the layout, border, interior art are all incredible. There are errors of course, and everyone has different tastes...having been part of the alpha & beta testing, I'm impressed with the way the final version evolved from alpha.
Can't please all the people all the time. (And the 4e supporters are especially vocal in their dislike of Pathfinder.)
I only have a few gripes, I don't like the armor pictures taken from the Gamemastery cards, they're not very accurate versions of real armor (particularly the banded mail, which doesn't even match the description, and the dwarven plate looks like a samurai armor knock off instead of a thickened version of Platemail.)
The maneuver system is a blessing compared to the old grapple rules. The new skill system makes character/NPC creation much easier.
Some of the weapons (spiked chain) have been changed, character classes expanded in an attempt to equalize the classes. Sorcerors and wizards are now mechanically and thematically different rather than just in name and meta-game stats.
As a veteran Grognard with 27 years of gaming experience under their belt, I definitely support PATHFINDER.
   
These little morons rocks!

It was great to put these lil guys on the table for RothRL...sure I could have used my regular WH gobbos, but these were much sweeter.
only wish there was a mounted commando on his goblin dog, and a a few more regular goblins, I made two sets for my game, but who needs to goblin kings or 4 war chanters?
   
Pure Steampunk

I would say this is worth every penny. From the clockwork magic and gear domain, to the various new kobold traps, this product never falters in its presentation. Wolfgang is a great designer and an aficionado of steampunk. Zobeck is a unique location, and I can't wait to use it in my games.
   
Bringing Disease the respect it deserves

I feel this is an excellently written module. It brings plaque into the game where PCs have to respect it.
As far as the NPCs casting divination spells, I think they're too busy treating plague victims to worry about Trinia.
