Orcus

I'll admit, I haven't read the thread, but what about this? Fight example

In my opinion, it's a pair of bucklers that can be used for bludgeoning attacks. Maybe add a +1 to your normal strength damage. You could put a blade at the end for a pierce. Definitely a Monk weapon, IMHO.

EDIT: Better example


Orcus

The PG version of the real thing. I'd say it'd be multiple attempts breaking vs bone, but penalized as if they're pinned. From the video (either version), there was a bit of pain and then the break.


Orcus

Maybe this will help. This is based on my memory of movement. The color guide is on the right, in 5' increments. Any color below, and including, is part of the cone.

Except for the one he needs - a 20' cone.

True. In that case, I'd use the 20' Radius template and cut off one quarter.


Orcus

If carrying a backpack, one hip quiver (right side if right handed to avoid getting "tangled" in the bow). If no backpack, one on the back and one on the hip.

Of course, the backpack can easily carry 3 or 4 more by strapping them onto the pack. However, the arrows will need to be contained (a lid) or bound together (string around the arrows) to avoid losing them. I'd say that it takes a Move action to get the stored arrows ready.

Just my 2 cp.

+1, and DarkMatter of course!

RuneQuest Deluxe Edition

Not an RPG, but Silent Death.


Orcus

If this helps:

Red Sonja

Fighter: 11
Strength: 14
Intelligence: 17
Wisdom: 10
Dexterity: 17
Constitution: 11
Charisma: 18
Hit Points: 75

Sonja is surprised only on a 1 in 1d6.
Equipment: broadsword, dagger, leather armor

Stats are based of the AD&D 1e rules (1986) for RS1 Red Sonja Unconquered. PC pre-gen.


Orcus

Previous link was for "Dragon", not "Dungeon". So, this is a better resource.

Anybody good with cartography? it might be fun to have a map.

No, but if you use Inkscape, you don't have to be.

This should help in your search as well. Type in "Dungeon magazine index" in Google and you may find others.

The problem is uniformly fitting all of the stats onto a card. Some of the creatures in the Bestiary have stats that take up more than an 8.5x11 page!

How about Jumbo Playing Card size?

It may require a little modification to the stat block, but so long as you have the reference and page number at the bottom, shouldn't be much of an issue.


Orcus

Ross, Digitalelf is on track to my original thought. I didn't see the additional sale of the signed core rulebooks. But DE does bring up another good point of price. The $150 price point is still pretty high.

John, yes, this is also true. Sadly, the extra "incentive" helps the donation process. It helps bring out the "warm fuzzy" in people.

Again, don't get me wrong. Any help is appreciated by those in need and I'm not trying to undermine what Paizo is doing. That fact that they are doing it is great!


Orcus

I mean this as no offense. However, I think that while this is a good idea, I believe that there are better ways of fund raising.

I really like the way that DriveThruRPG does their $10/$20 PDF kits. I'm also a fan of the "Pay full price, but we give XX% to charity" so long as you give advance notice. Or, the "give $10 to help out" button. Auctions only give a few people the chance to do good. The other people bidding could do much greater good that way. How much would have been raised if everyone that bid would have had a contribution?

Again, when it comes to charity, any amount helps!


Orcus

This tutorial may help.


Orcus

I like it, but I think the Rug is too easy. If there are multiple opponents on the rug, I think the DC should be higher (+2 per creature above 1).

Otherwise, good article!


Orcus

Hmmm, it's Savage Pumpkin. I wondered when Helloween put out their new album if they were Paizo fans....


Orcus

I don't think this helps. I can't remember the Dungeon numbers for STAP. But, just in case it does.

Good Luck!

I am a little annoyed at its lack of an object library though. Perhaps I just have not found it yet.

Edit: Oh, nevermind.

Edit 2: Except that's not actually part of the program? O_o

Inkscape is only on 0.48.1 (not a full "1.0" product), so it's far from a completed program. Also, it is an imaging program as opposed to a mapping program. With that in mind, using creative ways around the issue are sometimes necessary.

An option for you would be to create the images as part of another file and then import them into a new layer. For example, if you have typical dungeon dressings, you can save them to a "Dungeon" file and then import it into a "Dressing" layer above the "Floor" layer. Then you can make it invisible when you aren't using it. Sure, it's a work around instead of functionality.

Seriously though I have looked at a few map programs and haven't liked a lot of what I've seen. This looks more similar to the tools I have used and been able to create something that didn't look like a child created it with crayons.

IMHO, Inkscape isn't any different than ProFantasy Campaign Cartographer or NBOS Fractal Mapper (they are all vector programs). Sure those have more tools and icons, but you can always build your own or import images.

And the price of free can't be beat!


Orcus

I've only tinkered with it, nothing too difficult. I've recently picked it back up again when I tried one of those "How to draw Anime" books using Inkscape. Came out pretty well.

I've been reading the tutorials (here,here, and here).

A definate must look for those that are artistically challenged (like me)!


Orcus

I've always enjoyed Inkscape for making maps. If you make a mistake or want to move something, it's easy to modify.



Orcus

I like the idea! I'm playing in a Bard's game (4th Dwarf Bard, 3rd Fighter/1st Bard Elf, and 3rd Rogue/1st Bard Gnome), but we haven't figured out a name yet. Picked out spells that could be used for the performances (pyro, illusions, etc).

Of course, we'll have to have our (cara-)van. Possibly painted up with an acountant on the side!


Orcus

Sorry Cosmo, I have to cancel more : (

Please cancel all subscriptions. I've decided to go the PDF route on all items.

Thanks for your help!


Orcus

Good thing you guys are on top of this, I totally missed it ; )

Thanks,

Wouldn't this be after the

"Pathfinder Campaign Setting: World Guide—The Inner Sea (PFRPG) Hardcover will ship with a future Pathfinder Adventure Path volume"

I still would like the World Guide, which is scheduled to go out soon.

Thanks for your help!


Orcus

Please cancel the following subscriptions effective immediately:

Pathfinder Companion
Pathfinder Module
Gamemastery Cards

Please cancel the Pathfinder Adventure Path AFTER Pathfinder #36. I would like to finish off the Kingmaker AP in hardcover.

I would also like to cancel the below after the next shipment. Should I wait and take care of this later?

Pathfinder Chronicles

Thanks in advance! I've enjoyed my subscriptions, just trying to cut back.

This brings up a question I've had in my mind. I just finished off my last campaign and now plan to start Age of Worms later this summer. I expect to have 4 characters regularly, a 5th off-and-on and a 6th later on, possibly in the new year. How should I handle XP? Will 5 or 6 characters split up the XP too much so that they can't progress fast enough to stay on the path?

First, I'd like to say that I've never DMed. That being said, adding another PC or, especially, two "throws off" the balance of power. The more people you have for an encounter set for 4 players, the easier it will be combat wise. You may want to consider adding another NPC here and there to bring things back around. The DMG should point you in the right direction.

If I remember correctly, Paizo APs seem to be a bit more geared for 5 players, but I don't remember where I saw this.


Orcus

There is a fan supported PF extention for Fantasy Grounds. Paizo said they wouldn't officially go with FG due to lack of Mac support (although, it can be used with WINE).


Orcus

What about Swords of our Fathers, which I believe predated Weapons of Legacy. Was this any good?

Looks like they have their creation process online, and there were sequels (Rods & Staves, and Rings).


Orcus

Curses! I will be camping on a mountain at 9,000 feet with no iternet access for 7 days when this becomes available.


Orcus

Could put it in Inkscape, but the max canvas size is 9 kilometers...

OK!! I am now officially eager for the next installment of Kingmaker. :))

You only have to wait another week. Got my "in a week" email.

You all know what to do!

Here's a tutorial on Map Rescaling. It's pretty short and deals with a couple of topics, but their both helpful.

Another option would be to do it a painful way. Zoom in on the image one piece at a time and do screen shots. Then piece everything together in a raster image program. Time consuming, but the loss will be less.

Keep in mind, any time you resize it will have some loss.

Hope this helps.

Hmmm... Kleen Kanteen, check. Starbucks cup, check. Nalgene, check. Coffee Cup, WTF? No, really, that's what it says ; )

85 second load time just to bring up the Sign In page. Blog page takes a bit of time, but mostly for loading images. Loading the "add a post" page was pretty quick for this thread.

Anything by Steel Panther. The CD came with a Parental Advisory label, as well as a statement from the band saying it was raunchy. Like a bad train wreck, you can't look away.

This right here is a Perfect example on why PDFs of the Item Cards would be very useful for Subscribers!
Actually, PDFs of the cards would still include the backgrounds on the cards, so a PDF would put you in the same boat as scanning the cards (minus the effort of scanning, of course)--you'd have to edit out the backgrounds to make something like Maro's sheet.

I'd be OK with that.
