That's exactly what our GM is doing as we move from Gatewalkers to Curtain Call. Between the APs we will have a year off where we can just completely rebuild our characters with no restrictions coming into Curtain Call at 11.

The biggest thing about the argument is that while in the long term PDFs do not hurt physical book sales, getting the PDF early would disincentivize brick and mortar stores from stocking Paizo books. There are already game stores that take umbrage to the current subscription process. Whether it actually hurts them or not tends to not matter to business owners who feel threatened.

And if you're not getting the PDF early at all, there are going to be people that complain when physical subscribers start getting their PDFs 2 weeks before them, even though thats not actually one of the stated benefits of the subs.

The idea that getting pdf early would cut into the sales of books is nonsensical. They are not the same products at all.

Paizo reps have responded to this point at length in the past, as QuidEst said. Just because you don't have all the information, or don't accept it, doesn't make it nonsensical.

IIRC the canon answer came from Vic Wertz like 12 or 14 years ago.

What made a lot of sense then might not make much anymore.

Also I very much would like to get an actual counterpoint so that I can understand it better.

The original answer came in 2009, sure, but it gets answered again every time the subject of PDF subscriptions come up. That is still the official answer from Paizo.

Oh god my game is in the blog. I guess it's really real now. Excited to bring my own take on Bastardhall back to its Paizocon roots.

Honestly I just refer to Rise of the Runelords as Rise and Return of the Runelords as Return.

Boy I really garbled those links huh? Thanks James. That was actually the direction I was leaning for specifically those reasons. It was just that the post recounting Bastardhall through the years surprised me today.

So working on a project, and my editor told me I had used both Lake Laroba and Lake Laruba in the document. So I went to look for the correct answer in my sources.

Frustratingly in Rule of Fear Wes used both... Laroba on page 58 (three times) and Laruba on page 28.

In the Carrion Crown Poster Map Folio, Laruba was used.

In Book of the Dead, Laroba was used.

In the Blood Fate[/url web fiction, Laroba was used.

In [url=https://paizo.com/threads/rzs2n4kk?Bastardhall-next-appearance-in-4713-Any-big#15]this forum post, Wes once again used Laruba.

I'm leaning towards Laroba because the two most recent canon sources point to that, but also Bastardhall is Wes's baby so that gives Laruba a little more sway with the forum posts...

Almost every adventure and adventure path module have come out on release day of the adventure.

All of them

No but the adventure it's tied to has been indefinitely delayed, so this won't be released until that is also released.

Yes its targeted for sometime next week.

look at luis getting ahead of the game with this AP wooooo

Its the thematic replacement for the Balor, while the level replacement is the updated Vrolikai which got moved from 19 to 20.

There's overlap with the images in NPC Core so there will be overlap in the token pack too

Patience padawan, Paizo's general working day starts at 9 am Pacific time, which is still an hour and a half away. I wouldn't expect this until later in the afternoon, because the Foundry system hasn't even pushed its update with NPC Core yet for this to tie to. They need to have the NPCs available for the mapping file to attach the art to before they can make this available.

No this is the Character Gallery.

A Foundry module has been confirmed for NPC Core when it releases tomorrow. Generally Pawn Sets have also had PDF options as well.

I would *love* token packs for the APs that happened *before* the official modules though.

Treasure Vault is one of the Rulebooks containing hundreds of items to use in your games.

For your answer, look four posts above your own.

The links work for me, the launch looks to be in 90 days. I know they had some delays because they want to get it right before it goes live.

It will be a separate product.

Guessing that it will be the same size as Godsrain, which is about an inch or so bigger than a normal paper back book

For more on this you should read Death's Heretic and the Redemption Engine, both by James Sutter. Two novels about a Rahadoumi man pressed into service as an inquisitor of Pharasma

Pawns are thick cardboard that are primarily meant for use as tokens on a physical table, Battle cards are large sized thin cardboard (think playing card) that have a picture of the monster on one side, and the statblock on the other.

Yes

Any word on VTT support for this AP? Would love to run it but my group is too spread out geographically to play in-person any more.

Considering that every AP since Outlaws of Alkenstar has gotten a premium module, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet that that's not going to stop.

Spore War volume 2 has the remastered Invidiak

The invidiak (both pre-master and remaster) has an exception to their resistance for vitality damage despite being a living not-undead creature. Is this intended or did it slip through the editing process?

All rulebooks get entered into Foundry for free. If you're asking about a token pack, nothing has been announced, but it would be surprising if they don't make a pack.

Because this isn't a new book. Its a reprint with language changes to make it ORC compliant, and some errata. Those of us who were already subscribers when this first released would have been hit with another purchase for essentially the same book if it had been part of subscriptions.

Which Lost Omens book? Rival Academies has the same release date as this

WORRY

WHY IS DESKARI ON THE COVER

When they do reformatting with the errata it will, that usually only occurs when they reprint the book, but you will get an updated PDF at that time.

That's generally how the forest maps denote tree trunks you can't see through

Well that explains the rune in the corner of the pages

We have no idea the size of the dungeon for Shades of Blood yet. We know it's a three book dungeon, so likely similar in size to AV. The Pit is slightly smaller (though not much). Otherwise any other large dungeon in a 2E book is a single book at most.

The Guantlight and The Pit are both megadungeons. The Gauntlight takes all three books of Abomination Vaults. The Pit takes all of Seven Dooms For Sandpoint, which was a double sized Adventure Path volume. The upcoming Shades of Blood is a three book megadungeon too.

Of note the

I don't remember what the original name was :P

They are system agnostic, but made for the Foundry platform. If you're asking about other platforms, you can theoretically get the files out of Foundry to use elsewhere but nothing prebuilt for Roll20 or Fantasy Grounds.

Good news, his alignment will never change because alignment doesn't exist anymore

CHICKEN TRAIN

That kind of sucks though for anyone without the original book. Random fluke to even check the forum posts to see it's not going to be in the subscription. Will you still offer a free PDF copy for ordering the hardcopy? Main reason for keeping the subscription at all.

I agree, the whole reason I have the subscription is to not worry about making sure I need to get these releases, and the free pdf included.

I was curious what all had been revealed regarding the changes to the book and just happened to read these comments, if I hadn't I wouldn't have know until my book never was shipped. I think if this becomes the norm for future remaster rulebooks I would also have to cancel.
I understand I may be biased, but I think just asking the people who didn't want a copy to message support was better than preventing all those without one from getting the pdf included.

The problem is that this book was part of a subscription already. This isn't like Player Core and GM Core where it's a total reworking of the book, its more akin to a reprint with an errata pass. So keeping it in the subscription would mean that those of use who already have the hardcover either have to manually ask Paizo Customer Service to skip this one (and potentially temporarily lose benefits tied to holding a certain amount of subscriptions) or eat the extra money for a new printing of a book we already have.
