Is this push back just for the class decks, or for the Character Add-On Deck and Adventure Path 2? This is my first Paizo sub. I had an authorization declined last Wednesday, so I moved some money from savings and re-submitted. It went through, and the order shows as pending on my account page. Over the weekend, the charge disappeared from the pending section of my online banking site, but nothing has changed within Paizo's site. Is this a normal thing for anyone else, or were charges reversed since the street date got pushed back?
Well, most barriers summon the monster after a check against the barrier itself. My confusion was cleared up by this discussion and a closer reading of the card. My initial confusion was from reading it as "you're facing an enemy ship which is a barrier; randomly pick one of the ships out of the box to see which one it is." After reading again and seeing it said, "the Enemy Ship is also defeated," it was clear. I was also playing with my 12 year old son who may be smarter than I am now and is definitely smarter than I was at 12. It was his idea.
To be fair, the Enemy Ship doesn't say "None" under Check to Defeat, it says "See Below." If I weren't defeating the Enemy Ship, I couldn't attempt to close the location, could I? Maybe I'm being pedantic, but I read that as the check to defeat the Enemy Ship is whatever check is on the ship it summons.
Hi, New member here with a question and a comment. But first, a little about me: I became interested in gaming through Munchkin in Feb of 2012 (my kids were enjoying Monopoly and I wanted something nerdier.) Within 6 months, I had every set, expansion and accessory I could get my hands on, was well on my way to becoming an SJGames MIB, and was reading about Munchkin Pathfinder announcements from GenCon. I've never gotten into RPGs despite always having an interest. My sister played D&D when I was younger and I've always looked up to her. Also, I'm a big fan of Dragon Quest IX on the DS. I wanted to try Pathfinder to enhance my enjoyment of the Munchkin set, but real life gets in the way sometimes and I was never able to commit to finding a group. On Free RPG day, I watched a few tables, but decided it may not be for me (for a variety of reasons. [RPGs in general, not Pathfinder specifically.]) Well, yesterday, I followed forum member cartmanbeck over here from the SJGames forums to read his review of Munchkin Pathfinder and stumbled across this product. A huge coincidence that it happened to be the original street date. Anyway.... tl;dr - Huge Munchkin fan despite never engaging in standard pen and paper RPGs. Stumbled here yesterday. My question: After reading this entire thread and the setup section of the rule book PDF, is it safe to describe the Adventure Card Game as an RPG without the detailed character creation (I understand you choose which basic cards to put in your deck among other things,) and without the need for a huge amount of imagination. In other words, is this an RPG where the cards are GM? Is it safe to play if you aren't RPG savvy? My comment: I'm very very excited about this game. I plan to ask my FLGS about it tonight and possibly order it from the site tomorrow. I just want to let Paizo know that your partnership with SJGames has created at least one crossover customer, and I don't even have Munchkin Pathfinder yet. I was extremely impressed and excited to see that your staff has the same level of dedication to your community of customers as SJGames. Perhaps this game will push me towards more traditional RPGs. Thanks, people. |
