Castrovel(the Green) is the "venus" one and Akiton(the Red) is the "Mars" one Ashanderi.
Hopefully they added Aberation, Dragon, and Magical Beast to options
I figured I got it wrong when I wrote it, but I didn't have time to look it up while at work. Despite the planet I mentioned not being a direct analogue to Mars, I think my point stands.
Hey this will be well worth the wait until June so I'll be looking forward to this. Besides we still have the playtest docs which might tide all us eager fans over at least a bit.
Hmmm..reading through the playtest document. I'm disappointed that it doesn't seem to allow for the creation of some really weird new races. I was looking forward to creating an ooze race and creating a race with the incorporeal subtypes.
Did everyone see the preview of the Duergar in this month's Game Trade Magazing from Alliance? The race is completely stated out over these two pages. If you can find a copy you might want to pick it up! I am glad I did!

Link please.
There is not link, this came out of the actual book. I am hoping Paizo places the pages up for us to download.

I'm actually currently crafting a Duergar NPC. I was already pretty excited for this book, but getting to use it a little bit on something I'm actually doing has only stoked that excitement.
Wondering if the amount of background material in the duergar preview is indicative of how much there will be for the six-pager races or if those guys will be getting more.
I'm hoping. The duergar's text leaned pretty hard in the "these are all horrible people" direction. I'm hoping the races with more pages(orcs, goblins, etc) get more range and flavor to back that up.
Now that we've seen the final cover for Ultimate Equipment, might this one be coming soon?
Ultimate Equipment is a bit unusual in that we had the finished artwork in hand before we had to make the mockup cover. So while that mockup uses the final art, it's *still* a mockup cover, and will likely be adjusted prior to publication.
Generally, we post the finished covers a little while after the books are sent to the printer, and the printed has generated proofs, and the proofs have been approved. That's the first point that we know the cover is 100% final, and we wait until that point so that we don't have to update the image repeatedly should things be required to change. I'd expect that to happen for this book within about a month.

Given what we saw in "Orcs of Golarion" I am not holding my breath on that. :(

Well, that's me. Eternally and foolishly hopeful.
I'm hoping being divorced from Golarion canon means that they actually put some flavor their for non-Always Chaotic Evil orcs.
I'm fairly certain the answer is "no"--and I apologize if this has already been asked--but, will there be any races in the Advanced Races Guide that are approved for play in Pathfinder Society?
