Excellent, my character that played the Scoured Stars plot line back when it was happening is ready to go back and tell a certain giant, gold-plated deity what a terrible absent parent he is and shake her fist at him again.
They also look and feel way bigger than Centaur and Minotaur is just looking at them. He’s standing next to an orc and they are not short To be honest, how you measure horses are in hands, and to the top of the shoulder/withers (basically where shoulder meets neck). A pony can generally be up to 14.3 hands high (or about 150cm, not sure what in inches) at the withers. And considering the withers is where the human parts start on a centaur, and my own height (about 170cm/5'7"), even the Ponygait centaur can be pretty tall compared to the average human.
In the neon spectacular future of three hundred and twenty five years after The Gap, there is only war~ Space Ratfolk army time, yes-yes, Great-Grandmother Rat shall lead ysoki to warp-bright future-time.
Ooh, so I wonder how all this is going to play out with the Hellknight Order of the Scourge? They have basically been on alert to rebel against Cheliax since the Path of the Hellknight book came out. Delicious implications for my 1e Inquisitor of Ragathiel/Hellknight...
No factions is an interesting choice; I wonder why that was made? Maybe to not have to manage a faction rep subsystem. I think it's confusing. I know SF earlier, you "slotted boons" including which faction you represented that game. But it's also confusing as to "do I just belong to this faction, or can I swap around and represent Wayfinders one game, then Acquisitives another?" Answer is yes, you can move around, but people forget or misunderstand or brainfart on that all the time.As far as Achievement Point awards, I miss the expensive vanity purchases from PF1, like being able to buy your own island or ship. It was a lot of fun when you had to travel somewhere by boat to the adventure to say, "Let's take my ship!" I liked the ability to invest my characters further into the world. I'd love to see that kind of thing. I hope that that comes back in some capacity. Having a farm to retire to (and also make handle animal her dayjob) was so great for my Empyreal Knight Paladin. Even retirement vanities of like "you retire and start teaching new Pathfinders what you know as a teacher at the Grand Lodge" would be so fun.
Speaking as a GM, we've really had problems with high level play taking too much time and game stores with firm cut off times. I also don't really like level 1-4 play, but I absolutely understand the move to cap games at level 10. The "people can only do high level play in SFS mode" commenters... No, only if the scenario is not running over time. You hit the same time commitment problem as AP books if your GM lets you have fun with role play, or if players spend time arguing or planning.
Also, AP books don't neccessarily take that long. 3 sessions (of 4-6 hours) is doable. Same as an SFS retirement arc, really. Deciding before you actually experience it isn't an informed decision.
Captain, I desire the scifi language of garage door opener violence ray and enemies with the Plunger of EX and Singular Electric Hand Mixer Beater of TERMINATE XD
That's speaking like this hasn't happened in PF1e Society. I know I came in towards the end, and even with making people aware I had not played or run a scenario, and it was a plot important to my character so I would like to experience it fully, they sped-ran it. It could just be about who I was playing with, but saying that's just DnD Org Play is blatantly false.
We did that in part 1 of a Seeker Arc at the end Society for first edition. It was a fun but deadly adventure.Pretending to be the Red Mantis is the sort of thing that earns a visit from the Red Mantis...Literally the plot of the Red Mantis one-shot adventure :P I do believe my VC that did that adventure would volunteer to go back. Given he can turn into a huge size dragon now, it would probably exponentially speed up the process of
Does anyone else keep reading SFS1e 7-05's title like Don Maclean sings American Pie? Just me? Okay. Looking forward to doing some Knighting to avenge Lastwall. Also, those bunnies are still some of the scariest things my poor goblin Bard Gobbo has faced. Snacks that try to eat you back? CRUELTY TO HUNGRY GOBLINS.
Congrats to Lucas, and congrats on 5th Star 7 Glyph getters! I hope all PaizoCon Europe goers have fun and the Spicy Flu won't infiltrate like it did for GenCon. And I hope Alex can enjoy cheese, chocolate and fondue versions of both.
Speaking from the Org Play perspective... having a pregen with a weapon that they can't innately use in their class is _tricky_. Zemir's sword was always a huge drawback from the overall feel of the class and we wanted to evolve that in this new version! Is that a Lantern Staff? If so, my PFS1e Oracle of Whimsy Approves. XD
Honestly, it's an international organisation, there's HQ, and then there's regions. Not only that, but they have their own training facility (The Masters of Spell, Sword and Scroll are basically Deans and Subject Head Teachers of a private university essentially). I think if anything, a clear organisation chart would be nice, especially when it comes to the regions. It'd be nice to know who's operating where (especially for PF Infinite content makers).
ABSOLUTELY. Because it is a fact universally acknowledged that swimming in duck ponds is a thing every Regency aristocrat must do. (I am so amused at how many movies since the first Colin Firth Pride and Prejudice have featured a wet-shirt scene for the comely gentlemen. Bridgerton has done it once a season so far.) I am all for more PF related "comely gentleman in a wet shirt". Last one I saw was Count Arendae of Mendev (after my [Wrath of the Righteous CRPG] Knight Commander "introduced" him to his desired poetic outcome of "love interest bathes under waterfall"; by shoving him in). That is entirely not enough! Charity dinner benefitting a Crusade/concerted holy effort to do something war related? Hrrrrm, feels very season 4 of PFS1E But that's okay, season 5 was a blast.
Thank you thank you thank you for Paizocon specials being at 10am Pacific time! I could not sign up for these in previous years when they were at 7am to accommodate east coast US players! Though still virtual, it's one of the only major west coast cons to get access to these and this year being the last season of Starfinder 1st edition is extra special. *cries in international* Aus eastern time makes it 3am. Never let anyone say I'm not dedicated. T.T
Is that coming to GenCon Online by any chance? *puppy dog eyes* If math is the barrier, dice rollers might help. I always bring a (dollar store type with big buttons) calculator to IRL tables, cause I'm bad at math. It can be really useful for kidlets who want to join but also may not be great at math (or adults who may wanna try but are also bad at math). It's a great accessibility tool to have lurking in a IRL GM kit, even if we generally all have phones with inbuilt calculators.
Oooo, love that "you can hit a willing ally without an attack roll". All those biohackers can more freely distribute those performance enhancing concoctions now! Also, yes, Starsinger! Want! Need! I wish it wasn't boon only though T.T No Melophile, no Starsinger, make me a little sad.
I love that punk Kasatha art! Thanks Paulo Magalhães. Looking forward to looking at the new stuff; thanks for contributions, writers! Now to give my sugar'd up Kiirinta Soldier new grenades to play with, make friends with the new critters and take a peep at the archetypes for ideas.
When did Nova become a faction?It's my top-secret faction of high-level Starfinders! The Faction head is clearly a Novian. It's why it's a secret, high level Starfinders only club. ;) The Org has a proper name and everything now. I can't help but think of them all like... goth shuffling along to a cover of Age of Aquarius, because of the name.
