Ummm... I just looked in my Subscription Tab to check whether March's shipment would be mid or late and had do do a bit of a WTF???

It seems that March, April and May's shipments have all been combined into one super huge $200 shipment due in mid-May? Is this an error, or is this what's actually happening?

Hi Guys,

This order: $167.09

Call of Cthulhu—The Card Game: Dunwich Denizens Asylum Pack
Call of Cthulhu—The Card Game: Breathing Jungle Asylum Pack
Call of Cthulhu—The Card Game: Never Night Asylum Pack
Call of Cthulhu—The Card Game: Into Tartarus Asylum Pack
Call of Cthulhu—The Card Game: Shadow of the Monolith Asylum Pack
Arkham Horror Novel: Dance of the Damned
Elder Sign: A Game of Suspense and Supernatural Investigation

has been split up into a bunch of smaller shippments as far as I can tell. It has been trying to charge me individualy for each shipment instead of just taking the entire ammount (I did have some issues when my wife spent some of the money and I had to wait until this week to be paid again to top it back up). So so far it has charged me for (as far as I can tell) 4 of the 6 individual shipments, but when I try to complete the transaction and pay for the remaining shipments, it keeps giving me an insufficient funds warning and telling me there's a problem. There is $170.00 in my card right now, and despite the fact that this amount is more than the cost of my total order, the remaining orders should come to nowhere near that much.
Are you able to tell me exactly how much is remaining to pay and give me some suggestions as to why it won't let me pay for them?

Cheers :)

Hi Guys,

I'm just letting you know that I sent you an e-mail about this order because I know you are more likely to check here first, but it's not something I want to Post in a Thread. :)

Cheers

Pathfinder Adventure Path #51: The Hungry Storm (Jade Regent 3 of 6) (PFRPG) Print Edition (subscription copy) Pending

Pathfinder Player Companion: Faiths of Corruption (PFRPG) Print Edition (subscription copy) Pending
Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Beginner Box (OGL) Boxed Set (subscription copy) Shipping

Hi Guys,

Any idea why half of my order (The Beginner Box) shipped 2 days ago and the rest still hasn't shipped yet? I've had orders split to save on postage before and they've always gone out together, I've never had the one (split) order sent days apart before (and it's rare that I've had a subscription order ship this late in the week before)?

Just curious because the stuff that is still pending is the stuff that I actually want. Like a lot of people I wasn't overly interested in the Beginner Box, but unlike most I still kept it and doing so seems to have bitten me in the arse by slowing up the rest of the order... :/

There is something seriously wrong with the postage on this product.

Every time I tried to buy it the postage came up as $17, when every other Asylum pack only comes out at $5.50. It also wanted to split it up into a second shipment when I tried to combine it with other packs.

I'm guessing that you have the weight and/or the size of it entered wrong in your shipping calculation database.

Cheers

When I tried to apply the "anniversary9" Promo Code to the order I just tried to place, it came up with the error message: The promotional code "anniversary9" is no longer valid and has been removed from your order.

I was under the impression that this code was valid until the end of July. I havn't tried to redeem it yet (I know it's only valid for one transaction), since the only things I've bought since it became available were non-Paizo .pdfs and Gift Certificates (both of which it's not valid for).
Is there a reason it's not working for me?

Hi Guys,

Order #1708761 (Early July Subscription Order)is pending atm and I just added a Gamemastery Cards Sub to my list of Subscriptions. I started with the Urban NPCs Face Cards, which are due to ship Early July as well. I just want to make sure that they will combine with Order #1708761 and all come out together.

Cheers
Craig :)

Any idea when the Core Set will come off Backorder, since it wasn't on Backorder when I placed the order and keeping $200 in my card is fast becoming a real issue after 3 weeks?

I'm a little curious about this order.

I got my Arkham Dice today, but was wondering why they shipped seperately to the Carrion Crown/World Guide Subscription. I'm assuming that it must have been cheaper to do it that way, but what I was really wondering is if the Books had shipped yet?

The reason I ask is that I thought that by adding the dice to my subscription shippment that the total cost (dice plus subs) would be taken out as one transaction, not two seperate ones.

I have found the payment for the dice in my statement, but as far as I'm aware I can't find anything for the books? I'm a little worried that the money that I had sitting in the credit card was just spent yesterday and today by my wife for groceries.

Anything you can tell me about the status of this order would be very appreciated.

Pretty much what it says. Are you guys going to keep producing the Web Fiction as purchasable ePubs? I like having them on my iPad...

Hi Guys,

I literally just received this order and was a little distressed to find that the tube the Poster comes in has been crushed in the middle. With some trepidation I opened the tube and discovered that yes, that big crease in the tube has in fact placed a crush mark all the way down the centre of the Poster, which includes small tears in a number of places.

Is there anything I can do about this at all, as I was planning on getting the Poster laminated and hung in my garage/gaming den?

Thanks

Is there any chance of getting updates for the Draconic Bloodline to incorporate the new True Dragons in the Bestiary 2? I have been itching to play an Umbral Draconic Sorcerer since the Core Rulebook first released, but sadly Home Brew Rules are not allowed at my gaming table (if it ain't in the Rule Books, it ain't in the game).

This is a Thread for people to throw out ideas on what they would like to see as part of future Golarion Day Blog posts.

I figured it would be better for it to have it's own Thread rather than Paizo Staff having to sift thrugh all of the Sable Company posts to get an idea of what people want to see. :)

Awesome!

We're currently running through Rise of the Runelords at the moment in our fortnightly Pen and Paper game.
Sadly my halfling Barbarian Big John Lonnigan met his end while trying to battle Malfeshnekor a little earlier than we should have.
My new Magus, Ariadne deSernos isn't doing too badly so far though, so hopefully she'll be around for a while to come.

On another note:
I love that you have a Paladin of Desna in your new party. I had a Paladin of Desna as my very first PbP character and after the huge arguments on the Boards over whether or not it was legal to be a Paladin of a Deity who wasn't Lawful Good/Neutral I'm overjoyed to see you embracing it. :)
Also, Sabriel is one of my favourite character names, as you can see by the fact that my 4th PbP character was named Sabriel (amongst a number of others over the years). :D

So riding off the coattails of this Thread, who wants to see this new project a reality?

You know the drill, all you gotta do is sign the petition below.

Thanks once more for your time and effort. :)

Just a query as I sent an e-mail yesterday (15.5 hours ago to be exact) which mean that an entire work day has passed with no reply.
I'm not being confrontational, I'm just wondering how often the Customer Service e-mail address is check. Is it daily, every couple of days, weekly...?

Super Keen! :D

Awesome! :D

Someone had to do it... I just figured it might as well be me.
Hell everyone already knows I'm Solnes' biggest Cultist... (y'know, 'ceptin' High Priest Moorluck 'o course, so I 'spose that makes me like First Acolyte or somethin')

Montellan Corey
Male Human Ranger 4/Rogue 6
Description: Montellan is average in almost every sense of the word. Five foot nine, black hair and with nondescript features, he is someone seldom noticed and easily forgotten. He dresses in simple black shoes, black pants, plain white shirt and black vest. On cooler days, he also wears a worn black jacket. His one noteworthy feature is his pale ice blue eyes, which sparkle with an inner chill to match their hue.
To look at him one would never guess that he grew up on a farm outside the city of Carpenden in Andoran, for he carries himself with the air of one accustomed to life within Almas. He is soft spoken, but his speech portrays an intelligence that would see him rise to the top of his chosen profession were he to truly apply himself. Instead, he channels that intellect into darker pursuits.
Motivations/Goals: The thrill of the hunt is his only motivation. He goes about his days locked in the boring drudgery of normalcy, an apprentice bookkeeper by trade. It is at night that he truly comes alive.
He discovered early in life that the only true pleasure he could garner from life was by inflicting pain onto living creatures. He began when he was nine after he found a calf in one of the fields that had been attacked by a wild animal. He sat there for three hours watching it die; only to have new life spring into existence within his heart as the calf’s was extinguished. He would wander for hours at a time around nearby farms, tormenting and torturing animals, occasionally getting carried away and killing them without realizing. The culmination of his youthful journey came just weeks before his eighteenth birthday when, without much thought, he walked into his parents’ bedroom and butchered them while they slept. Their deaths were blamed on local bandits who had been raiding in the area, as after the deed was done he was careful to place the house into disarray and hide a number of valuables.
Selling the farm and pocketing a tidy sum, he bought himself a small townhouse in Almas from which to find himself a job in an attempt to relieve his boredom. It was only a matter of time however before his dark urges would again come to the fore.
Schemes/Plots/Adventure Hooks: He takes life on a day by day basis, plotting his hunts as he goes.
Another body has turned up floating face down in the harbor, with familiar lacerations on its torso and missing a hand. The Watch is called in, but even after a year they are no closer to catching what the populace has dubbed as The Bleeder. Unsure if it is even a man doing the killings and bowing to pressure from on high, the Watch Commanders have put the call out to any adventurers willing to assist them in the capture of the killer.

DESCRIPTION
At first glance this gem appears to be nothing more than a red garnet. Upon closer inspection however, a tiny sunburst sigil can be seen etched onto its leading facet.
Anyone holding a Dazzler can use it to cast flare at will as a Swift Action.
They can also be attached to a Shield by a skilled Armorsmith (DC 15 Craft check).
Shield activation is the same as if it were held. Multiple Dazzlers can be affixed to a Shield as long as a Craft check is made for each. If a check is failed by more than 5 there is a 50% chance the Dazzler is ruined.
Additional Dazzlers can be activated from a Shield in the same round, but activating more than two Dazzlers in such a way becomes a Standard Action. For each additional Dazzler activated, the -1 penalty from each Dazzled Condition stacks (although the duration remains the same).
The number of Dazzlers that can be attached to a Shield are as follows: Buckler/Klar 2; Light Shield 4; Heavy Shield 6; Tower Shield 10.

WTF?!?

Sinister has been Hacked again. What's goin' on over there? Who the hell has Nick pissed off to keep getting hacked like that?

I've loved Umbra Dragons since they appeared in CotCT #5 (Skeletons of Scarwall).
It would be nice to have some rules for them to be added to the Draconic Sorcerer Bloodline.
I know that it can't go into the PFRPG Rulebook as they aren't "Setting Neutral", but some word from Jason about possible ways to incorporate them into the lineup would be really nice.

So when do we get the Gods as Avatars? I am quite keen to get myself a Calistria Head Avatar.

And before anyone else jumps on board... you can all have the other Gods, she's all mine, MINE I tells ya. Ah ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa!

Purty Please.

With sugar on top.

And Strawberries and Cream.

OK, I'm gonna relate a Dream I had a couple of weeks a go that has been running around in my head.
Weird Sh!t...

I was watching The Mummy Returns the other night and in it they were using a large (what I can only describe as a) Two-Bladed Sword. However both ends had what appeared to be Pendulum Blades on them instead of straight (or curved) blades.
I have done a quick google search, but other than a picture, I can't find any other information on this weapon. I am interested in using it as a weapon for an Osirioni Fighter, and wanted to know what it was called and whether it deserved it's own stats, or should I just use the generic stats for a Two-Bladed Sword?

Hey Guys and Gals

I am starting to get a little worried that I won't be getting any stuff this month, as all of my PF stuff is STILL sitting in my sidecart, with no Orders created or confirmation e-mail or anything.

Just really (really, really) curious as to why?
Cheers
Craig

I started talking with James about how a Paladin shouldn't have an alignment restriction other than that they should be the same alignment as their God in another Thread (reposted here, so I don't have to retype my arguments).

What does everyone else think? I for one would really like to see Pathfinder address this issue.

Hi Guys,

I think this should be directed at Vic, but I'm not too sure so anyone who can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

I bought this and 2 other .pdfs (A Touch of Evil Volume 3: Gnolls & A Touch of Evil Volume 5: Kobolds) as part of Order #990779.

Both of the others were fine, but when I download (or open for that matter) Hobgoblins, there is nothing in the Zip Folder, even though it says it has downloaded 8.6MB of info and the Properties says there is 8.6MB of info there!
View Hidden Files and Folders is selected, so it's not a Hidden File.
I also tried downloading it again. No Dice.

Just wonderin' "What's Goin' Down in Chinatown"? =)
Cheers

Anyone else have trouble grabbing images from the .pdfs after updating to Adobe Reader 9? I tried it on my workstation and it wouldn't even let me select them. Luckily I hadven't updated my Laptop yet and so just grabbed them from there.
I'm sure there's a way around this, anyone know what it is?

Who let Nic choose the artwork for the Zon-Kuthon article?
That was some nasty stuff. Cool! ;)

Just wondering when the
Item cards: Essentials
and
Item Cards: Curse of the Crimson Throne
are due out?
They both have "expected May" on them and I was wondering if that was gonna be pushed back?

Sunday, 9 Sarenith, 4707 AR
I arrived in the town of Falcon's Hollow late in the evening as part of a Merchant Caravan from Korvosa on it's way to Absalom. We set up our stuff and most of us headed towards an inn in town called The Sitting Duck. I went in and asked the portly barkeep for a room and some Thistlewine and he was really rude to me and suggested that because they were full that I should try the brothel across town. I can only think that he said such a thing because I am so good looking, but still it wasn't very nice of him. Anyway, he said I had to buy 2 drinks to stay in the common room, so I found a seat and tried to drink what I can only say "passes" for a tasty liquid beverage. After a while I noticed a bit of a commotion when a man was carried out of the bar and a lot of people were coughing and hacking. I asked the barmaid if there was any kind of disease in town and she said no, not that she was aware of but that I should go and see Laurel in the Roots and Remedies down the street. So I did, but when I got there Laurel had been attacked! I burst into the front room of the shop to find Laurel slumped over the counter with a dagger sticking out of her back. I quickly pulled the knife out and called upon the Blessing of Desna to heal her wounds. Thankfully she hadn't passed over and she groggily came around. I managed to give her some more healing and she asked me to go and check on an old man in the next room. So I went and it was horrible! Someone had taken to the old man with a knife (it was probably the same one in Laurel's back now that I come to think of it) and he was all mutilated. So I rushed back in to tell Laurel and she told me to go and find someone called Jurin Kreed. She said that he would know how to get in contact with someone called Quince Darkivy and that I should bring this Quince Darkivy back to see her. So I went and found Jurin (he was only a boy and I woke up his father who wasn't very happy and I feel a bit sorry for Jurin now, he might get in trouble) and so Quince was actually staying there with him. Quince also had some friends with him and one of them is a Kobold can you imagine that! So there is Quince (he's pretty cute) and Fjyndel (he's another Gnome like me, well not really like me 'cause he's a bit too "rustic" for my tastes) and Stoney the grumpy Dwarf and Drint the Kobold (he's not too bad for a Kobold, if a little on the sour side) and then there's Quirk the cute little Pixie. So we all headed back to Laurel's and she tells us that the town is afflicted by something called the Blackscour Taint. She can heal it but she has run out of ingredients and would like us to go into Darkmoon Vale and find them for her. Of course we all agreed (even the Kobold) and so we spent the night at Laurel's.

Moonday, 10 Sarenith, 4707 AR
So we woke up this morning and after my morning Prayers to Desna we all headed out to the shops to get supplies for our trip. I bought this Journal so I could keep a record of our journey to go with the other Journal of my trip with the Caravan. I also bought some other stuff and it was good because Laurel let us spend up to 50 gold on stuff! I didn't quite spend that much though, so Laurel can still have some of mine left. Anyway I went and told the Caravan Master where I was going and suggested that he take the crew over to see Laurel and get them checked out and if they were all alright then they should continue on to Abaslom without me. After that I met back up with the others and after lunch we got underway. Laurel told us that we should be back within a fortnight or there might not be a Falcon's Hollow to return to. Quirk knows the Vale, so he told us where we could find everything we needed. So we decided to head towards the nearest of the three places first, somewhere called The Elder Tree located to the North of Falcon's Hollow. This meant we had to travel through Darkmoon Vale and around towards the mountains. The next spot he said we had to go is the hut of the Witch Ulizmilla and that should be a day's march to the West of The Elder Tree. The old dwarven ruins is a day's march from the Witch's hut and towards the Northwest. I don't like the sound of that Witch's hut personally, but hopefully she's a good Witch. Anyway, we're getting back underway now after a short break, so I'll write some more tonight. Quirk says it's gonna be a good 2 days or so before we get to the tree, so I'm sure there's gonna be some exciting stuff to write about on the way there, some of the caravan guards said that the Darkmoon vale is supposed to be a bit creepy. I think they were just trying to scare me, but maybe they were telling the truth. Uh Oh, Quince is telling me to hurry up so I better leave it there. He still looks cute, even when he's trying to look cross.

Scary I know, but I've been thinking about some of the things people have been saying about having both a new class and a new race added into the PFRPG. Personally I think it would be a good idea. They would only take up half a dozen pages, so nothing over the top, but they would at least give the book a bit of Pathfinder flavour (yes before everyone starts berating me, I Know that it is supposed to be relatively setting generic, a little bit of flavour seriously can't hurt though).

In this vein I was interested to see what people's ideas of their Top 5 (preferrably) Non-OGL, Non-Core Races and Non-Core Base Classes were, so that Jason might have a range to work off.

Top 5 Non-Core Races:
1. Celadrin (Dragon #350 p.52)
2. Genasi (Air, Water, Fire & Earth in order)
3. Hobgoblins (OK, so they are OGL, they are just my favourite Monstrous Race)
4. Harssaf (over powered for a starting race I know, but something toned down would be nice)
5. Derhii (hey what can I say, I REALLY like these guys... Kudos to Wolfgang. Obviously they too are over powered, but toned down they would make an interesting addition to the Core Classes and a good way to show off then new Fly Skill)

Top 5 Non-Core Classes:
1. Swashbuckler (obviously you can make a Swashbuckler style character with the Fighter Class, I just really like them)
2. Warlock (the idea of a Caster that always has "spells" available is a good one. Some of the features need to be ironed out, but the core "Eldritch Blast" ability is the main focus here. Honestly though, a ranged type with Ftr BAB progression and Eldritch Blast, combined with some Feats and/or Abilities would be a good not too powerful Base Class. Note the "no Invocations", just the Eldritch Blast ability, but turned more towards the Ranged Fighter Archetype)
3. Duskblade (the good 'ole dependable Fighter/Mage)
4. Ninja (mighty Mike's Death Squad needs some lovin')
5. Favoured Soul* (I like the idea of a spontaneous Divine Caster to be the Cleric's balance on the opposite side of the Wizard/Sorcerer circle)
5. Healer* (I don't know why, but for some reason I just really like this class)

Just my 2cp, but I'd be interested to get the views of other Paizoans (including the Staff).

* 6 Classes I know, but I just couldn't decide between the Favoured Soul and Healer.

Hey Wolfgang,
Great Module, only one thing bugs me about it. I wish you could have included instructions for including the Derhii as a PC Race. I really love these guys and would be quite excited about using them further.

Any chance you could give us (well I'll admit it's purely for selfish reasons, but hey anyone else can read the post right) the write up on their Racial Stats and Abilities (including ECLs)?

Cheers

OK, here goes.

First off let me start by saying Well Done! This is a big chance you guys are taking and I wish you all the best in this endeavour.

First Impressions
While I have not read it from cover to cover, I have had a decent flip through the Alpha Playtest Book. It seems that you guys have done your homework. From what I gather Jason this is your baby and it comes across as a labour of love. For a Playtest Manuscript it is amazingly detailed which can be both a good and a bad thing. Alot of these rules will be changed and the more people have to re-learn, the more muddied the playtest will become. Again, just my first impression. Time will tell how this goes.

Suggestions
* First and foremost, please reinstate the Starknife as Desna's Favoured Weapon ("Deities of the Pathfinder Chronicles" Sidebar p.10). I love the Kukri as much as the next gamer (probably more) but the Starknife has always been associated with Desna, heck the Spherewalker Prestige Class utilises it in it's abilities. It also gives the Gods that extra added piece of conectivity to the Pathfinder setting.

* On a related matter, I would fully expect all of the new setting specific Weapons, Armour and Equipment (from the Player's Guides) to be a part of the finished Pathfinder RPG Book come next year. There should be no reason why they (and some new ones) can't be added. While this book is meant to be a "Core Rulebook" to continue with the 3.5 Ruleset it is also meant to be a showcase for your marvellous setting and should have it's own flavour in there as well.

* New rules for the handling of Races with ECLs. I am assuming that the Pathfinder RPG Rulebook is meant to be both Player's Guide and DMG in one, so this point should have at least a small section. I like playing other races (Genasi, Celadrin & Hobgoblins are favourites), but every time I have played one their lack of advancement compared to the other characters has been their downfall; less hit points being the biggest drawback. No ECLs and Racial Abilitiy Advancement has been the only shining light for me about 4e so far. I realize that alot of these races can't be include because they aren't OGL, but there are some base ones that are (Aasimar & Tiefling come first to mind). Again, I know that you want to concentrate on the "Core Races" and I agree with this, but I do think that a small section should be included to address this point.

* Combat Feats. I like this idea, but I think that the "one per round" should be expanded. You should be able to activate more than one Combat Feat per round, but only within a Combat Feat Chain. For example: If you Activate Dodge as your Combat Feat, then you can still use Mobility and Spring Attack or as long as you have Wind Stance, then you can activate Lightning Stance in the same round that you have activated Dodge (by the way, I used this example because I really feel that Dodge should have always been a straight up +1 Dodge Bonus to AC).

* Any chance of a 1st Level only "Luck of xxxxxxxx" Feat similar to Luck of Heroes from p.40 of the Player's Guide to Faerun? I love that Feat! ;)

* Can Meta Magic Feats such as Empower Spell, Quicken Spell, Still Spell, etc.. have another penalty other than taking up a higher level Spell Slot? Requiring a Spellcraft Check or becoming Fatigued after Casting are just 2 examples.

* Is it possible for each race (obviously other than Human and Half-Elf) to be given 2 choices for Favoured Class. For example: You have given the "classic" Favoured Class of Wizard for Elves. What if a player could choose a Favoured Class from either Wizard or Ranger. They make the choice at 1st Level (even if they take neither of those classes at Character Creation) and it can't be changed. To my mind Ranger has always been the perfect Favoured Class for Elves and I know alot of people feel the same. This solution appeases both the traditionalists and the new agers (not that I consider myself a new ager, I am 32 and have been playing since Red Box after all). =)
Other choices could be:
Dwarf: Fighter or Cleric
Gnome: Bard or Sorcerer (or Wizard with Illusion as their chosen School)
Halfling: Rogue or (err... I don't know, Barbarian?)
Half-Orc: Barbarian or Bard (Skald)

Questions?
1. Regarding the "Designer Notes: Starting Hit Points" Sidebar on p.11. Say for example I go with the Double Hit Points option: Would these bonus Hit Points also be applied to the creation of enemies and NPCs with Class Levels as well?

2. Just want to clarify the way Class vs. Cross Class Skills are handled.
If I have a Fighter and take a Level of Wizard, I add all of the Wizard's Class Skills to my Fighter's Class Skills. Does this then mean that all of the Fighter's Class Skills become Cross Class Skills, or my Class Skill List now includes all Skills covered by the Fighter and the Wizard's Class Skill list? I think it's the latter, but just want to make sure.

3. Will the Bonus Feats (from the Rise of the Runelords Player's Guide) be included and expanded upon in the Pathfinder RPG?

4. On a related Note: Will you have Regional Feats and/or Bonus Equipment (ala Forgotten Realms CS and Player's Guide) as part of your Setting? Possibly combining the Bonus Feat and the Regional Feat could be a good idea.

5. While I realize that there isn't enough room in the Pathfinder RPG Book to include all of the rules, will there be any kind of mention of Psionics in the Rules?

6. I thought you were going to include firearms in Golarion. Will there be new firearm rules (including specific Feats) in the Pathfinder RPG Book for them?

Closing
On the whole, I am impressed with what you have done.
There are quite a few changes you have made which streamline the game; Skill use and merging being one of the best in my mind.
There are quite a few changes that will make people happy; the removal of Favoured Class Penalties and the inclusion of Benefits being the best in my mind.
There are also quite a few changes that make me happy personally; the Toughness and Dodge Feats are some of the best examples here. You have handled them the way that I have always thought they should be handled.

I know most of what I have said is fluff and not crunch, but I'll add more once I have given the Alpha Book a more thorough read.
This will do for starters! =)

I am sitting down at home with 3 computers to work on, a client to call, an online PC store to set up and a job to go out to in 3hrs... AND YOU SPRING THIS ON ME!!!

Man, I just thought, "Hey, I'll just log into my account and have a quick look at my posts, and see if there is some funky new picture on the Blog... just spend 10 mins." That was over an hour ago and I just finished printing the RPG Playtest. I am sitting here with it in my hot little hands and trying very hard to not read it. Gotta do work, gotta do work, gotta do work!

I love you guys! ;)

Not sure if this is the right place, but here goes.

I just have a question regarding the Charter Tag.

I am going through a rough patch at the moment; in the first year of starting my own business, and having just had our 2nd child (6 weeks old). Money is therefore really tight at the moment and my wife is really trying to curtail my extraneous spending.

What I want to know is: If I were to discontinue my PF Subs, but picked them up again at a later date, would I regain my Charter Tag, or would I just return to a regular Subscriber?

It may not seem like much but as some other have pointed out, those Tags make us feel special ;)

Cheers

Hey all,

Mothman mentioned the Campestri in this thread and I really wanted to know if anyone knew of a 3.5 conversion for them somewhere. They originally appeared in Dungeon #40 in the excellent adventure "Song of the Fens".

So Nic,

Does this mean you play a bit of the awesomness that is DDO? =)

EDIT: Or are you just writing from Notes?

For some reason the shipping for my subscriptions was changed to USPS First-Class Mail instead of USPS Package Service, which caued my postage to jump from $6.86 to $22.76.
There is another thread here related to this problem. The $39.85 option mentioned there has gone and has been replaced with the 3 regular options. I have reset it back to the USPS Package Service option but was just wondering why it was changed and if there is a possibility that it would happen again?

Cheers
