I am also curious about the Gearsmen as well Sub-Creator and I also need to reread that section were they say there are indestructible because I do not remember that one.
Maybe we will get more info on this book during or shortly after Paizo con.

So when do you good folks at Paizo think the list of monsters and how you want them done will be finalized. So we can ask silly and/or anoying questions and actually get some interesting answers. Or at least an idea when this one will be ready to be shipped to the printers.
The monster list is pretty much done and finalized. We're not going to be revealing much more about that list until MUCH closer to the book's release later in the year... we're about 3 months or so away from that, if not more.
Will we find out anything more about this book during Gen Con?
Thanks for the info.
I hope we get some previews for this one, particularly art previews.
I'll just say that the list of monsters for this book delights me. Especially with information on the Gearsmen (Finally! Been waiting years for these guys) and the Mana Waste Mutants.
And "the disturbingly alluring Fungus Queen"? Do we want to know?
As long as we finally get the Lashunta as a core race and the numerian spider/scorpion Mecha with gatling guns and a particle beam cannon tipped tail I'll be on cloud nine!
I, for one, would be perfectly content if this was the cover.
Or if the cover was very close to it.
Yeah it is a nice mock-up cover, can't wait to see the real one though.
I agree with you Berselius and you too Eric Hinkle.
I subscribed to this line in large part due to the Numeria support this book will have.
Do those spit magic missiles?

From what I was told they will be something that can be played and built like normal races which has me all atwitter. What was told to me is that they will look a lot like humans but will have some construct like abilities.
Pulling for ensouled construct options.
I mean, if a goddess can be a robot, surely a robot can have a soul. :)

Wait, which goddess is a robot, and therefore, more awesome than any of the other deities?

Brigh. Goddess of Clockworks and Invention and Oh Yes, That is Indeed My Chocolate in Your Peanut Butter, and You'll Darn Well Like It.

Brigh, goddess of invention. She looks a little bit like this, or if one prefers for their Golarion, this!
edit-Beat'n. And concur'd with that sentiment!

This is the first I have heard of her. Why isn't there a 64 page book devoted to her yet? :-(

I blame Daleks. They're afraid of what the ascension of The Brig might entail for them, and the similarity in spelling confused them. An early-dawn raid on the Paizo offices was beaten back by the warehouse velociraptors, though.
Force Llamas sounds interesting.
Brigh, never heard of her, but a machine deity is cool.
I heard that the Monkey Goblin will be a 0HD race with rules to play as a character.
Does anyone know what the Mecha-Scorpion is actually called?
No, I remember James Jacobs said what it was called somewhere on these forums awhile ago but I do not remember were and I can't remember the creatures name.
It was Annihilator, if they weren't bluffin'.
That's right it was the Annihilator but for some reason I kept thinking it was the demolisher.
So far we are getting:
Gearsmen of Numeria
Star Monarchs
Vesperguant
Whirlmaw
Veiled Masters
Fungus Queen
Monkey Goblin
Lashunta
Rovagug spawn 1(Chemnosit?)
Rovagug spawn 2(Volnagur?)
Lorthact
Vetala Vampire(template)
Blighted Fey(template)
Mutants of the Mana Waste(template)
Annihilater
Androids?
Is it October yet?
Getting excited for this book.
Your not the only one getting excited for this book, I pray that it doesn't get delayed.
I hope we get those multi-leg lizard mounts that the female Lashunta have and hopefully the androids are a playable race.
Does anyone remember were the Vesperguant was mentioned and what it is?
I have a feeling that the cover won't have the Annihilator on it :(
But here's to hoping!
I can't wait to read all the complaints about how Golarion-specific the monsters and templates within are! Should be exciting!
Oh, but I'm also excited about the book itself . . . not as excited since finding out the Gearsmen won't be nigh indestructible as I'd once hoped (according to how they were described in "City of the Fallen Sky"), but still quite excited! Very much want to see the Blighted Fey template, as I'll be running Kingmaker soon, and I'm a huge fan of the Spawn of Rovagug!

I, on the other hand, being the one who ordered the cover and who has seen the cover, have a feeling that the Annihilator WILL be on it. :-PI have a feeling that the cover won't have the Annihilator on it :(
But here's to hoping!
Speaking of which is it not around the time the covers for the October products to be updated?
I would be more exciting for a Bestiary 4, this book contains too much mechanica, but I will buy it anyway for the other creatures, cuz many sound interessting

I don't know. I'm not involved with that upstairs stuff. :-P
I DO know that the cover hasn't actually been built yet, so even if right now WERE the time to update the product... we couldn't.

How do you know the theme for Bestiary 4 won't be automata? ;p
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yeah 3 robots and an android aren't that many machines plus were getting every creature type and many subtypes represented plus every CR from 1/2 to 25.
The theme for the Bestiary 4 will be space aliens vs robots with some mutants as well;)

OOO that is good news, hearing the robot-lovers talk, I thought it would be around 20 :p

I didn't know there was Real Dolls* in the book. ;p
*note don't google it unless you really want to know, you have been warned
Sky Dolls would be nice as well.
Sky Dolls would be nice as well.
There was also an episode of Futurama were Bender and Amy hooked up. I think it parodied the Gay Marriage debate if I remember correctly.
