Sounds great, BenS! I haven't been on the boards the past couple days, but just saw your PM about tracking.
Wonderful, I'm about done now. I just sent Ozreth the last 5 boxed sets. Techbuilder may or may not surface again.

Do you have anything left? Sadly, not much from this particular giveaway. I have 8 Player Companions left; let me know if you'd like any or all of them: Advanced Class Origins
If you are interested, please send me a private message asap w/ your name & address. I'm trying to get as much mailed out by tomorrow as possible, as I believe shipping rates go up on Wednesday.
Ok, updates... [Ozreth] my biggest box would only hold 5 of 6 boxed sets, so I sent the Inner Sea Pawns box in a smaller box today. I now have the 5 Bestiary boxed sets all boxed and ready to ship out; but I need to wait for a ride to the post office, which should happen in the next few days. [Tim Emrick] mailed you Reign of Winter & Shattered Star. [W E Ray] mailed you Pathfinder Society. [TxSam88] mailed you 9 AP pawn collections. [Techbuilder] waiting for you to send me name/address in a private message; if at all possible, I'd love to mail your Curse of the Crimson Throne set tomorrow, but that will depend on how often you check the boards. I'll follow up w/ private messages so you know the tracking #s.
That's kind of you, ok, I'll set aside CotCT for Techbuilder and get you the other 9 collections. PM received, thank you.
Well, I did sort of cap the # of winners already, so unless TxSam88 sees this and tells me you can have this 1 pawn set, I'm afraid it's already spoken for. We'll see what happens. In the off chance you do get it, though, it'd be a gift, not a purchase.
B2, Pathfinder Chronicles, Campaign Setting, and Player Companions, are all books that I currently do not have hard copies of, and have not had the cash at hand to get digital copies. Pathfinder 1E was the first Table Top RPG I ever played, and I stubbornly cling to the system. Well, my friend, you are mostly in luck, as Sysryke only wanted the 4 hardcover Bestiaries. So I still have lots of PF Chronicles, Campaign Setting, and Player Companion softcovers. Trying to think of the easiest way to do this...if you're not averse to the idea, we could exchange email addresses (through private messages) and figure out what you already have and what I have that you don't and you might actually want. If you'd rather not give out your email address, you could post either here or in a private message what you have, and I'll maybe do a bunch of copy/paste for the titles so we end up at the same place. Hope that works.
Alright, this thread is turning into a spreadsheet project. Haha. Let's see if I can summarize where I think we are: Ozreth gets the 6 boxed sets (which is all of them) as noted in the original post. Tim Emrick gets Reign of Winter & Shattered Star. W E Ray gets the Pathfinder Society set. TxSam88 gets...everything not named above, which appears to be...10 sets by my count. I have names/address for Ozreth & Tim Emrick; just need them from W E Ray & TxSam88. Fire away w/ those private messages.
Ok, I said I'd cap the winners at 3 but...let's make it 4. Anyone who has not already posted to express an interest, sorry. W E Ray, at the very least you'll get the PF Society collection (n.b., the AP collections are not boxed sets), but I think I've committed to sending the Inner Sea Pawns Box to Ozreth, along w/ the 5 Bestiary boxed sets. No need to reimburse me, and thanks for the implicit kind words as to why I'm doing all this. It is part of an overall downsizing as I might be moving, but what I'm passing on in these various forums/threads are items I'm either through w/ (books I've read, as 1 example) or simply decided they weren't for me (PF-style pawns). Pop me a private message w/ your name/address and I'll hook you up w/ at least that 1 collection of pawns.
Sounds good, thanks! Strangely, I seem unable to send you a DM, I am not seeing the option anywhere. I'll keep poking around, but feel free to initiate a DM with me if you see this. I had to figure this out myself. Go to Account Settings > Privacy Settings > Private Messages, and check the box so that Paizo.com members can send you private messages. Presumably that allows you to send them as well. When that option is checked (not sure if you need to leave site and come back for it to "take"), if you click on my BenS name, you'll arrive at my Profile page and have an option to send a private message.
Forgot to thank Ozreth & Azothath, that was all very helpful info about the bases.
Ok, glad to see some decent interest in these. Let's do this. I'll cap the winners at 3. Ozreth, thanks for offering to split them even though you were the 1st claimant. You'll get the boxed sets. Send me a private message w/ your name/address and I'll get these out to you in the coming days. TxSam88 & Tim Emrick, let's see if we can figure out how to split the AP collections. TxSam88, can you tell me which set you currently own? If it's not Giantslayer or Pathfinder Society, for example, you can definitely get those, as Tim already has those. I'll try to shoot for an even split once I know the 1 collection you already own.
Hi Ozreth. Posting 1st and telling me you'd actually use these is all you needed to do. I'll give this thread until tomorrow evening to see if there are others interested as well. I should have pointed out 1 thing for those of you maybe not familiar w/ these pawn collections. They require plastic bases, which are found only in the boxed sets. The AP-specific collections have only the pawns, no bases, so you'd either need to have your own bases from your own boxed sets or...I'm not sure if PF (or a 3rd party) ever sold bases independently of the boxed sets ? Mentioning this b/c if, say, Ozreth gets the boxed sets while someone else gets the AP-specific collections, the latter person(s) needs to understand they'd still need to get plastic bases elsewhere. It could still happen that Ozreth gets everything, in which case this is all moot ;-) I'll post again by no later than tomorrow night, and we can follow up w/ private messages for name/address mailing info etc.
Ok, same disclaimer as other giveaways I've done recently: recipient(s) should live here in the U.S., in the lower 48 states. Ideally most or all go to 1 person but I'll acknowledge it might not work out that way for this particular collection. Just trying to keep shipping costs down (which I'll pay). W/ only 3 exceptions noted below w/ an (*), everything is still shrink-wrapped. Those I've opened, I've only looked at the interiors; nothing is missing, all pawns remain unpunched and still in their sheets. There are a few reasons I'm giving these away to a good home, but 1 is that after buying arguably too many of them, I decided in the end I preferred the flat-on-the-battlemat "tokens" used for D&D. Fiery Dragon made a lot of them, and I prefer that style (and have tons of those). [Boxes]
[AP specific in alphabetical order]
If there are multiple people looking for the same ones, I'll figure out a way to pick the winner. Probably prioritizing fewer shipments > more shipments. We'll see. Cheers and good luck.
Thanks for responding. I am more than happy to gift them to you. I will follow up w/ a private message so I know your name/shipping address.
might I suggest you give them to your local library? That's what I did. Well, I guess I'm hoping there's someone new to 1st edition who might appreciate them, or simply someone (like me) still playing 1st edition who doesn't own them but would like to.
Specifically, 2, 4, 5, 6. I find I refer to my pdfs for the bestiaries more than opening the hardcovers, though I prefer looking at physical copy of other HC's. So, as they're not getting any actual use on my bookshelf, and I'm slowly finishing up my PnP career anyway...time to pass some stuff on to a good home. If you live in the U.S., in the lower 48, I will ship these to you at my own expense. Preferably before October 1st, as I think rates are going up. Ideally these go to someone who wants/needs all 4, so I can minimize the shipping costs, but let's see who asks for what. I might roll some dice to pick a final winner, we'll see. Bonus mystery prizes. I also have many of my originally complete softcover collection; Pathfinder Chronicles, Campaign Setting, and Player Companions. Some of these I'm ready to pass on, too. If it gets to the point where you win some or all of the HC books, and we switch over to personal messages to arrange shipping information, let me know if there are any of the softcovers you are still looking for and I'll see if (a) I still have them and (b) I'm ready to part w/ them. There's too many for me to type out as a list right now... Cheers, and good luck.
Ok, Tim, you're the lucky winner, and I didn't even have to roll any dice. Haha. I'll follow up w/ another p.m. to get your address. In the unlikely event anyone else thinks to post in this thread...just fyi, I almost never make it into the forums these days, so I won't see it. You can always send a personal message, though, as I log into the Paizo website every day just to keep abreast of what's going on in general. I might do another giveaway in the next few days, more limited in scope.
Message sent! Message replied to!
Yes, you read that right. If you happen to live here in the U.S. (in the lower 48), I will ship them to you at no cost (book rate; not sure how long that will take). I'm really looking for someone who does not own these 38 books and wants to, rather than someone who wants a few books here and there to finish off their collection. It's all on the honor system, of course. Everything is in mint condition. Just send me a private message if you're interested, and include your forum avatar name so I'll know who you are (to a certain degree). Maybe add a post along the lines of "message sent". I'll check a few times per day. To make this more RPG/RNG-like, the winner won't necessarily be the first to contact me; though that person will have an advantage. I propose (again, on the honor system) to pick the winner thusly: 1st contact gets 2 d20 rolls; 2nd contact, 1 d20 roll; 3rd contact, also gets 1 d20 roll. I pick the winner and we're good to go. I think USPS rates go up in October ("temporarily for the season" they tell us...yeah right...), so ideally this all happens in the next 7-10 days. If someone wants a list of all the authors/titles I'm talking about, I can do that too in this thread. Cheers.
Thank you, Aaron. I think I will have to refer back to the handy link you provided, as the path it shows has "Archives" in it; yet if I tried to manually find it from the drop-down lists...I can't. Also, I see nothing's been posted there since May. Still, it's what I'm looking for, and I'll start a new thread momentarily. Thanks again.
All I can find are forums for individual titles, which is not what I'm looking for. If someone could either direct me to something I've overlooked or come up w/ a suggestion, it'd be appreciated. Thx.
Thank you, Diego, that is a very helpful reminder and I'll take note of it. Also, I liked your rationale for why HL didn't have the emotion descriptor.
Troubling that AoN doesn't have the latest text; good thing I saw this thread b/c it's sometimes quicker to read the AoN entry then my CRB pdf. I'll be a good citizen and alert them, but sometimes they don't update stuff for a year or more so... Related ?: did Paizo introduce the "emotion" descriptor later in the game? It seems like this spell has "emotion" written all over it, but it doesn't have that descriptor (and my elf is about to fail a save she might have made, but that's neither here nor there).
Gosh, that's sad news and condolences to his family. I've only read his 4 PF books but really enjoyed them. A loss for the community.
Thank you for that amazing Dungeon/Dragon run of magazines, your support for Greyhawk, and an excellent PF game. I wish you health and happiness in your well-earned retirement.
You could play V's Lot anytime since it's separated from the main game in one sense. But some like to wait for Varnhold to become part of the main storyline, finish that, do the DLC, and then continue on w/ the main game. I'm not that far yet; this is just what I've read in the Steam forums. Also, yay! Looking forward to having turn-based at least as an option for certain fights.
So many great memories from these books!
Sorry, but I can not follow you all into 2nd edition. The order above has the last AP (144) for 1st edition, Adventure Path subscription. Please make that my last item to ship and then (regrettably) terminate my subscriptions. I see you've quietly removed the Pathfinder Tales tag, leaving me w/ "Adventure Path Charter Subscriber" and "Modules Subscriber". Please remove the 2nd edition module in the order above and terminate that subscription as well. Leaving me w/...nothing I guess. A sad day. I do wish you all the very best w/ 2nd edition PF, and thanks for lots of great memories over the years. To be super clear: the only thing I want from the pending order above is AP #144. Cheers.
Quite looking forward to this! Is that a new Protean at the bottom? Cute!
Has this issue been delayed for some reason, or is my sense of time off? I received #5 of 6 in late November I believe; nothing in December. Late January makes #6...2 months later than #5. Thus, delayed by my count. I'm not complaining, really, I just wanted to make sure what was happening w/ my ever waning subscriptions.
Has this issue been delayed for some reason, or is my sense of time off?
Still not fixed.
This is at least the 3rd different thread on this topic. I hope the future is soon.
RQ was my first RPG and I loved it. I wish it had been more popular. Glorantha was a wondrous place, and my thanks to Greg Stafford for everything he contributed to making it so. Thanks for posting this, sad as it is.
If anyone at Paizo is reading this, what happens is, you click on the next group of 5 reviews after the initial group...and get switched over to Product Discussion. As a random example, see the reviews for PF Tales/Death's Heretic (close to 50 reviews).
There's another thread on this, but whatever it takes to get it fixed, I'm game...
Love the art and companions. Crossing my fingers this game lives up to the greatness inherent in its potential!
Wow, yes, great cover art and product description update. It will be nice to finally see this module in print form.
This will be great. Can't wait.
Bump. I just checked and this problem remains.
Ok, thanks for the explanation and confirmations!
Has anyone received a Wave 5 package yet in the U.S.?
Now that the site is back, and I am about to GM another scenario (#6-15) in 3 weeks, I tried getting into the Product Reviews to see what GM pointers there are to run the scenario well. Once again, trying to get to Page 2 of the reviews takes me instead to the Product Discussion (which is still true for #7-01). Yes, this is sadly still not fixed. When the website was down for the greater part of a week, I had hoped this was 1 fix that could have been made. Not yet, apparently. Hopefully they're aware of it and working on it still.
I also like the new cover art, and w/ the updated description, this became a pre-order for me.
The diabolist in the book might not have taken levels in the Diabolist PrC. I really don't think he can be an eidolon. There are large swathes of the book in which he's in a completely different part of the city on his own and acting independently from his "master". I'm no expert, but I believe eidolons can't be too far away from their masters.
I appreciate the feedback, but his master is not a summoner, but a diabolist. I admit I haven't looked at that class lately, but I don't believe they have access to eidolons. I'm starting to lean towards "unique fiend created by the author for plot purposes". Regardless, he was a cool addition to a great book.
Wow, just read this today and loved it. I had one question, though, about the very cool "dog", Vhaeros. Was that a unique fiend created for the book, or is he (?) an actual, canon-blessed (heh heh) fiend? I couldn't figure out what type of devil Vhaeros was supposed to be. Regardless, there are some great scenes w/ him. Trying to get the children to pet him in Westcrown...twisted fun! And then his last scene (no spoilers)...
I reported something similar a while back, just not exclusive to PFS Scenarios. If you go to, say, a Tales page w/ more than 5 reviews, and try to get to reviews 6+...you get instead shunted into the Product Discussion thread. I'm on a Mac w/ Safari and High Sierra 10.13.6.
Wave 3 package received, and, like Haladir, it was also "Pathfinder Day" in my mailbox, as my monthly shipment arrived as well. Thanks so much.
When I look at reviews (clustered in groups of 5) and try to see the next group of 5, I'm thrown into the Product Discussion page instead. Tried this w/ "The Anubis Murders" from Planet Stories, which I just reviewed (unfavorably). Anyway. I'm on an iMac w/ Safari and High Sierra; latest versions.
