I hate guns in fantasy. The moment you include them it completely changes the feel of the world from primitive and exotic to middle-ages and "normal." I really do not like it when my fantasy feels like historic drama. Give me blowguns which shoot exotic bee stingers and I am happy. Give me gunpowder and lead balls flying and I am bored to tears.

Are these GameMastery modules going to be set in the same world as the Pathfinder adventure paths?

Yes, though not all will be in the same areas as any particular Pathfinder adventure.

I really hope you will reconsider and offer annual subscriptions. Not all of us have credit cards and when my transition issues are through your going to lose a custumer of five years now. I would think any added cost would be made up by the benefit of getting my money a year earlier.

As was said above, and in other places, if you live in the US you can easily buy refillable Visa cards from many outlets - not to mention Visa check and Debit cards offered by most banks. You buy the card and put $50.00 in it. When it starts to get low you can put however much additional money into that you want. With month-to-month you can cancel at any time. That seems more advantageous then sending Paizo $216.00 for a year's subscription only to find out you really do not want the product but are stuck with it for a year; or trying to find a way to cancel a year's subscription to get your remaining money back.

I am really excited about this product! Am I the only one who thinks "pathfinder" is a cheesy name for this line though?

I like the name. Since the series is about Adventure Paths it seems to make sense.


Is there any chance that at some point a Pathfinder series (6 books) will be for a genre other then Fantasy? I really cannot see needing two Adventure Paths a year for Fantasy; at least not after the first year or so. So is there any chance we will see a 6-issue run for Supers, Sci-Fi, Modern, or Pulp thrown into the mix?


Is there any chance we will get to see some superhero adventures make it into Dungeon at some point in time?

Between M&M, Champions, d6 Powers, Wild Talents, Silver Age Sentinels, and the various "dead" superhero systems still being played there are thousands of superhero fans who would benefit from seeing an adventure - or multi-part adventure - in Dungeon every so often. I do not believe it would be a difficult thing to get permission from the various publishers to include write-ups for a few different systems. Most of them would be happy to have the wider exposure.

I understand Dungeon and Dragon cater to the fantasy fans but there are thousand of superhero gamers who seem to be left out in the cold. I know I seldom purchase an issue of either magazine because there is usually no information for gamers who do not play fantasy. I know I would purchase the more issues of the magazines if there was a monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly issues catering to superhero gamers.


I am not a purchaser of Dungeon or Dragon magazines - because I do not play D&D/d20 - but I have gotten a great deal of enjoyment from ready my copy of Shackled City and I would love to have the opportunity to purchase a copy of Age Of Worms as well. By the time I even heard about the project it was already all-but over - I would not even know what back issues of Dungeon and Dragon I would need to purchase to get the complete series. I just wanted to let you know that I am a buyer if an Age Of Worms book ever does get greenlighted.
