I did a search for oriental, and the posts I found were 14+ years old. I'm sure what I'm about to ask has been addressed before so I apologize, I'm not trolling. If there is a thread that addresses this that you know of please advise.

I just started a Kingmaker game last Saturday, and my game group is very excited about the Pathfinder game and this campaign specifically (we just ported from 5e). I'm educating myself on Golarion and have been reading the World Book and now know that there are several continents to the setting and one of them is where the Tian racial stock comes from, a nation called Xa Hoi. Xa Hoi is itself just one nation on a continent that has many indigenous nations and cultures. Is there a product out there that outlines new classes and setting information for this continent, or do folks use the various classes as is and give them oriental color, as it were? Are the nations for this place outlined in adventure paths such as the Ruby Phoenix?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

I start running Kingmaker in two weeks, and am learning Pathfinder 2e at the same time. I'm looking for ways to shortcut my immense prep requirements, and am curious if there are level/themed encounter charts for the various regions in Kingmaker somewhere. I've not found them in the book itself (which I've not finished reading). I can make my own, but it's one more thing to do while reading all this. Thanks.

Kingmaker 2e has been out for quite some time, and so I'm hoping to tap into some player made resources as I prep to launch my group's campaign using this AP. One is random encounter charts (hopefully tailored per region). My group (and myself) are new to P2 and so I don't know all the monsters or spells, and am just learning the classes and rules while at the same time reading a 600+ page AP. I'm overwhelmed. What I'm hoping for here is that folks might have links to pre-generated encounter charts that I can use while starting off (and expand as I need to) for the various areas of the game. Anyone have anything like this?

New to Pathfinder DM here. I have a player who is very clever and experienced, and he is building a character around a bastard sword and spiked gauntlet duo. His plan is to attack with the Bsword, and grapple with the gauntlet as part of the double slice feat. As I read the feat, this is not an option that Double Slice allows for, rather what it does allow for is to let him attack with the gauntlet for it's damage. Also, are there any limitations on what weapons can be wielded once a grapple is initiated? I've a very difficult time imagining a massive Bsword being used effectively while grappling an opponent.

I'm a new PF2e player, and a DM with over 44 years of gaming experience under my belt, and I'm getting old. I know for nearly all the D&D adventures going back for a long while you can typically find advice columns or even detailed guides on how to run campaigns, suggestions and gotchas to look out for. There are 1300+ posts in the Kingmaker forum, which is far too vast for me to pick through looking for such a guide(s). Could anyone link me to one here on this forum, or outside of Pazio that they found to be helpful? I will be running KMPF2 next Summer, and so would like to be competently prepared to tackle it in grand style by that time. Thanks for any help you may offer in this.

Looking at the setting books, I'm unable to tell which, if any, are second edition. Is there a list? I've no interest in purchasing books that have a bunch of rules and such for the first edition of the game, even if the information about the game world is still relevant. From what I can find by perusing the online setting bookstore, there is almost nothing there that is second edition. I'm willing to buy another book to see if it gets any better than the Lost Omens Inner Sea world guide, which frankly was an utter flop and mostly useless to me.
