I'll be honest, part of me's just wondering how much panicking I should be doing right now...like, on the one hand they HAVE to be seeing the amount of negative press this is producing and want to mitigate that, yes, but they also have to be aware that even their most successful competitors don't have the money to go to court, so they may just bullishly go for it anyway, damn the lost sales.

If I am not mistaken some Star Wars rpg also falls under the old ogl. I don’t see them waging war with Disney.

Star Wars would have been their own license with Disney. Since they own the rules, the OGL was not needed for WotC (i.e. they don't have to license it to themselves). This also means that Star Wars is not covered by the OGL for others to use.

It does affect other parties' d20 licensed products (like both Stargate SG-1 RPG).

Hey there,

My PCs just got to the Engineering deck. What does that secret room in the far bottom right contain? I can't find any explanation for it in the PDF. My PCs want answers lol.

Assuming you are talking about the room between A2 and A4 , the "S" is not a secret room, but instead stands for "storage"

Page 81 details what is in these rooms (lots of rooms have an "S"):
"Storage: Areas on the map marked with an “S” are empty
storerooms. Any objects of interest have long since been
looted by adventurers, the Technic League, or Unity’s minions."

Ah, thanks. I skipped over that and read the laser turret part. I wish they used a different font from how they normally denote secret rooms. Now I won't get hounded over it anymore.

I believe that many (if not all) of the secret passageways are marked with a smaller 's' than the rooms. I cannot confirm this (not by my books at the moment).

Am I the only one who's PDF copy of this (Inner Sea Races) in file per chapter format has the pages messed on the common races PDF? My copy, and I've tried pulling it down a couple of times, has pages 57-77 replaced with the last 20 pages from the end of the book. I'm not even sure if this is the right place to post this, but it seemed like the most relevant option.

I just checked my by chapter copy, and had the same issue you described. You are not the only one!

My guess is that their master copy needs to be tweaked.

Plunder & Peril can replace book 2 of Skull & Shackles if desired.

Awesome work! (dot)

I'm definitely not in the majority because of this, but I feel PF has overstuffed their classes. You don't need a special ability every level. I like 3.5 for their take on classes a little better.

I prefer to approach things from the opposite direction: start with 3.5 as a base and modify with select things from PF

I would also be in that minority. While Pathfinder isn't bad, I just like 3.5 as a base. I have taken some of the changes from Pathfinder (CMD/B). However, I just find the base classes too powerful. This could be my start with RPing with 3.5 without using the later books (and therefore not seeing the major power creep of later books).

I also agree with your first point as well regarding stuffing classes.

18, Star Wars d20, Revised Edition

Quickly got into D&D 3.0/3.5 (it was around the time when 3.5 came out).

I will also put in my thanks. It is awesome to see a group making an AU of Star Wars happen!

I want to run Iron Gods just so that when I run Starfinder the players will have had direct influence on a key feature of the setting.

I had much the same thought when I read the anouncement. Glad I was not the only one!

Thanks! I appreciate that.

Yet again, thanks for being an awesome company! I have been enjoying the novel so far :).

I just wanted to confirm that the holiday16 does not apply to Pathfinder Tales PDFs? If it does, then this order did not apply the discount. If not, I suppose please disregard this message.

I just found an error: http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/occultAdventures/spells/pyshicCrush.html does not exist.

It looks like the spell name was misspelled, and that it should be http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/occultAdventures/spells/psychicCrush.htm l as this page does exist.

I got to the bad link from http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/occultAdventures/spells/index.html

Thanks for putting this up before Christmas! It's awesome to be able to see this!

For me, it was college. I hadn't heard of RPGs growing up. A female friend of mine (now my wife) invited me to join her in a game that another guy in the dorm was running. It was the d20 Star Wars (revised) game. From there, I got into D&D 3.0/3.5 (right around the release of 3.5), d20 Modern (still a personal favorite), and other games. I quickly went from player to DM; now that I'm older, I play one game and DM another as we have time.

RPGs hooked me because the game really spoke to my imagination, which I've always appreciated. It's fun to be able to play "make-believe" as an adult :-D. It also helped develop social skills, which I definitely needed.

I'll have to piece together what was written (though I'll just wait). It just bugs me, is all. However, nothing is gained by repeating my arguments, so I won't bring it up again

Kalindlara, I do agree that I doubt Paizo will release errata for Blood of the Moon.

They don't errata books until they reprint them. And they don't reprint anything except the main RPG line hardcovers.

(not to be argumentative, but they have, e.g. the Adventurer's Armory and the Technology Guide, though I agree that it is rare)

The thing is, they have produced errata for Blood of the Moon; I was more curious if they were going to make people have to purchase that errata (by buying this book) or not. This is a different piece of circumstances, where they repeat and errata information previously released.

Since my group does not play directly in Golaran, this book is minimal for help. The Blood of X is useful since its easy to make generic; this is why I wouldn't jump at purchasing this book.

It is extremely unlikely that Blood of the Moon will be reprinted.

Ross: thanks for the info; however, that's why I asked if it would be released outside of a reprint.

I had a friend email me the plain text of the skinwalkers "crunchy" info from the Racial Heritages section. Can someone confirm:

1) Skinwalkers no longer have a per day limit on their change shape usage?
b) Skinwalkers no longer take an additional penalty to Charisma-based checks and Charisma-based skill checks in bestial forms?
Π) Skinwalkers are now proficient with all simple weapons due to possessing the shapechanger subtype? Are kitsune also now proficient with all simple weapons?

Thanks :)

A) That appears to be correct.

7) That language is no longer present, so... apparently correct.

$) That language isn't present in the kitsune section... but the language here suggests a universal aspect of the subtype. Ask the writers, I guess. ^_^

Wait, to get the official errata(μ) for Blood of the Moon, I would need to buy this book? To me, that just seems odd...any idea if this errata will be released without a reprint of Blood of the Moon?

As an aside, I like your numbering schemes Ambrosia and Kalindlara.

μ: I know that I could find it on Archives of Nethys or d20pfsrd, but technically that is not "official"

DriveThruRPG has it on sale right now as part of their d20 system sale.

I did receive it. Like I said, I'll keep a look out at the future options!

Thanks again!

If you could, please cancel my adventure path and campaign setting subscription.

Thank you very much for the subscription options! Iron Gods was such an awesome idea, and I look forward to running it. However, my group is not into slaying giants.

I will definitely be keeping an eye out for future options!

Thanks again!

If the book was supposed to be released by April/May then they would have had the items description up by now.

According to the Pathfinder wiki, it will be out in September. The original date (according to the catalog) was for May 2015, but obviously that is not the case.

Personally, I would prefer a mixture of new and core races. I would prefer a 50/50 balance or at most a 60/40 balance of core/new races.

nevermind, I think I got it figured out. Helps to read the emails closer :)

Thanks!

I just wanted to confirm that the Iron Gods Poster Map Folio is not in addition to the Pathfinder Campaign Setting Subscription Iron gods Poster Map Folio that I ordered tonight. If I am scheduled to receive two, could I have one of them removed (the non-subscription one, preferably).

Thanks!

As per the subject. Thanks for making it possible to purchase book and PDF!

Please leave my Adventure Path subscription active.

Thanks for your help!

I would say to give it a little bit more time to allow it to show up, and if you still haven't seen anything by the end of next week, let me know and I will be more than happy to help get it figured out.

Just wanted to let you know that my package arrived today. Thanks for being willing to dig deeper into it!

How about a paladin succubus? All that charisma has it's uses.

Wizards of the Coast actually did something like that a few years back.

I've taken a look into your account and it seems that one part of your order (#3378216) is going a bit slower than the other. If I'm correct, you received the minis already but not the Adventure Pack or the Map Pack?

...

Thanks for looking into this! I really appreciate it (especially since it's after 5 your time). You were correct that I did receive the minis.

I will keep a look out for the package then! I suppose I'm a bit eager to see the map pack :).

Oddly, I have not received my order yet. I think it's lost or something by UPS, as I receive the other package sent by you guys on the same dates.

Sent something to UPS via email yesterday, but received no response.

Thanks, though, for all of the great products! I'm looking forward to running Iron Gods soon.

Thanks again! I look forward to reading through it.

Adventuring Classes: A Fistful of Denarii

Thanks for your kindness!

I actually know people from all of those families. In fact, I went to school with Bill Treadway (he was a few grades ahead of me). Weird.

And yeah, the view from Mt. Defiance is awesome. Back in high school, my cross-country coach had us run up and down the mountain on a few occasions.

There's a good workout, running up/down Mt. Defiance.

Bill is my cousin.

Small world.

That's funny, I have a bunch of relatives up there. Well, that and some at Crown Point. I love the Ti area.

Who are your relatives? I might know some of them.

Treadways, Bloods, Beldens.

In fact, related to the Fort, my great-grandfather helped to rebuild it.

I love the view of Mt. Defiance. You ever been up there? (shame about the fire there; I would have loved to see it before the fire!).
