Hi, guys!
Please help me in congratulating Christopher Hays as the newest Venture-Lieutenant of Missouri!
A large greatclub does 2d8 damage, according to the weapon damage table in the Core Rulebook. How much damage would a huge greatclub deal, and how much would a gargantuan greatclub deal? There are several people in my gaming circle who have very different theories as to what the answer will be, and my semi-official answer has not kept any of them from thinking their answer is right.
Greetings, Pathfinders, I would like to extend an invitation to all of the Society to join me at Valhalla's Gate in Columbia, MO this Saturday for the special, Race for the Runecarved Key!
Sincerely,
Barry Stoddard, aka techlee, has been promoted to the position of Venture-Lieutenant of Columbia, Missouri! Some of you may remember Barry's hijinks from the last couple of PaizoCons--he is a lot of fun to be around and always in a great mood! Barry has brought dozens of new players into the Pathfinder Society, and continues to bring in more with his Wednesday Night Games and the Pathfinder Smackdown every third Saturday. Congratulations to a great player, and awesome GM, and a good friend.
Hello, all!
This coming Saturday is yet another Smackdown event at Valhalla's Gate in Columbia, MO. The new location is easy to find--only a stone's throw away from I-70. All you need is a PFS legal character, a pencil, some dice, and a Core Rulebook. There will be 6 tables playing, more if we have a good enough turnout. Among the highlights: Barry Stoddard will be running his favorite scenario: The Mantis' Prey
Come on out and play some Pathfinder!!
Hello, all! I'm sending a shout out to Pathfinders all over the state that I might not know yet--send me a line! Also, if you are in the KC area, I have had a distress call come to me from GameCafe in Independence--they can't keep a weekly or bi-weekly PFS game going because they keep losing GMs. If you are in the area and willing to run a few games, please contact either GameCafe or Pulp Fiction, as both are great game stores that need a few GMs to help get regular games going. And if you play PFS anywhere in Missouri, I look forward to meeting you! Post here or send me an email! Thank you, Jason More Games = More Fun
Saturday, August 6th, Valhalla's Gate in Columbia, MO will be hosting Pathfinder Society of Missouri's Second Annual Grand Melee!! This is a very fun event aimed at Pathfinder Players who can't get away to GenCon. If you have a Pathfinder Society character of level 1-9 you can enter your character in the competition. This is an unofficial event, so you will not receive any experience or prestige. However, there are many prizes available. The grand prize is two copies of Ultimate Combat. The entry fee is only $3. Not a bad return if you win! I am also in need of volunteers to help run the event. You don't get to participate, but you won't have to pay to enter either. You don't have to do any prep work, just have good knowledge of the rules! If you would like more information or would like to volunteer, please contact me at kikai13 at yahoo. Last year's Grand Melee was an absolute blast! I think this year's will be even better!!
Just throwing on a quick reminder of this weekend's Cape Comic Con, at the Osage Center in Cape G. It is not too late for everybody out there in Pathfinder Society-Land to call in sick to work Friday morning and come throw around dice for a few days! Even if you have to work Friday, the schedule for Saturday is packed with all kinds of Paizo love, and we need YOU, the faithful messageboarders, to show Cape that Pathfinder is the best game in the world! I know that some folks are flying in from as far away as California to come to this con--if they can make it, so can you! This con is gonna be awesome!!!!
Does anyone out there have a really cool update of an old-school module or a new homemade Pathfinder adventure that you would be willing to run after Paizocon, on Sunday afternoon? I played in Eric Tillemans' Pharaoh game last year, and it was a blast! I would really like to do something similar this year! Thanks in advance!
I have had the pleasure of spreading the word of Pathfinder throughout mid-Missouri, and from the number of players that I am seeing on a weekly basis, I think the Pathfinder Society games in all of Missouri could grow immensely with only a bit of organization. I would like this thread to be the place where all Missouri Pathfinders can post where and when games in our area will occur. Also, I am putting my contact information here as well. If you are interested in getting in on Pathfinder Society games but don't know how or where to find them, please email me at pathfinderjtroeder@yahoo.com and I will do my best to help you find or start a game. The first Saturday of every month is the PFS Smackdown at Valhalla's Gate gaming store in Columbia, MO. We typically have 3-5 tables going every time we meet, and there is still plenty of room for new players. If you are interested, come on out! The next one will be Saturday, November 6th from 7 p.m. until midnight. We have a lot of great gamers there that come from as far away as St. Louis, Springfield, and even Wichita, KS! If you are interested in coming but can't find a ride to the game, contact me at the above email and I will see if I can find you one. Hope to see lots and lots of new Pathfinders there! jason
Hello everybody out there in TV land. I just wanted to jump on here real quick-like and throw out a little love for Happy Town. I watched the premier episode on my tivo a couple of hours ago, and then I went back and watched it again. This show is Awesome with a capital A. If you like Lost or Twin Peaks or Alfred Hitchcock or slasher movies or dark, oppressive settings, you are certain to like this show. With Lost about to end up, I think that Happy Town will have enough mystery and suspense to fill the gap. I can't stress enough that you should all check it out, mostly because I am terrified--that, like so many other good shows, it is gonna get cancelled. I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
Hello, everybody out there in Paizoland! I am inviting all of you to our new monthly Pathfinder Society game at Valhalla's Gate in Columbia, Missouri! These games will start at 6 p.m. on the first Saturday of every month and will end at midnight. Any and all members of the Pathfinder Society are welcome, as well as anyone who is curious about what it takes to join! If anyone has any questions, please feel free to post them on this thread. Come out to Columbia! Its gonna be a blast!!
I will be arriving at Sea-Tac on Thursday at noon along with a friend (Kosovo0121 on the boards.) That puts us getting to the hotel way early. Anyone else going to be there early, and what are you planning to do? Are there any Thursday night festivities going on with the local Paizonians? Would love to meet a few folks early and maybe get a game on.
I was just wondering if the Permanency spell would still have an xp cost to it, or if the xp cost is going to change just like for item creation. Also, any idea which spells can be made permanent? I can't even find an entry for Permanency in the Beta book. (Not digging for spoilers to the Pathfinder game--this topic just recently came up in our Beta game. If anyone knows the answers and can shed some light on the topic, I would appreciate it.)
I am creating this thread as a place for all of the players from our many campaigns to discuss mundane things that don't really belong in our campaign journals. For example, concerning this Thursday's game: I know that we have two clerics and a knight so far, and I was wondering what the other players were playing. Also, Abe & Steve: can you tell me a little more about your characters?
The other day, I received my Paizo order in the mail. It was raining like crazy, and to my dismay, I walked up my front steps to find a soggy box that the delivery guy had left in a place not covered by an overhang. I thought for sure everything would be ruined. However, somebody at Paizo must have known that it was going to rain that day, when my shipment was delivered, because they had put my items inside a mailer, and then wrapped plastic around said mailer, before placing the mailer inside the box! Your crystal ball is working well! Thank you guys a bunch!!
I am currently running a gritty campaign set in the city of Greyhawk. I also have very little free time to work on writing new adventures, so I have borrowed a bit from Dungeon magazines. I have every issue, but I don't have time to go back and read through all of them looking for adventures that would go well in the city of Greyhawk. Does anyone have any suggestions for my campaign? I also have almost all first, second, and third edition published adventures. Thank you all in advance for your suggestions.
Hello, I was sending this note via the messageboards because my e-mail is not functioning properly and I was unable to e-mail you directly. This is in reference to the Art of Dragon limited edition leatherbound book. I just received it today, and I eagerly opened the box looking forward to seeing this grand treasure that would become a family heirloom. I was a bit disappointed, therefore, when I pulled the wonderful volume out of the box to see--a completely mangled corner on the book. It looks kinda like it has been dropped on that corner, possibly multiple times. I know that this was a limited edition (mine is number 131) but can anything be done about this? Thank you, Jason.
...is The Age Of Worms Adventure Path Hardcover. Please, Paizo, what do you need from us (the consumers) to help you (the publisher) make this thing happen? If there is any way that I may offer my humble services, just let me know. Is there anything else gaming related that anybody out there would like to see made in the coming year?
For my entire life, I have thought that I had a sucky birthday. It's in the summer, which is better than being around Christmas, but I had never found anyone who I admired that shared my birthday. Any time that I would look at the celebrity birthday column in the newspaper (you know--that little column that says: "also born on this date...") there would be only one or two people that I had never heard of. The only kinda cool one I ever came across was Bugs Bunny, who, even though being a ficticious character, was listed as being "born" on July 27th. Then, earlier today, I was be-bopping around on imdb.com. I was checking out the writer's profiles for different films that I was interested in. And there, lo and behold, it listed Gary Gygax as the inspiration for the Dungeons and Dragons movie, and listed his birthday as July 27th!! I have the same birthday as one of the creators of Dungeons and Dragons!! SO MUCH COOLER than sharing a birthday with a dead president or an overpaid actor!!! Has anyone else out there found that they share a birthday with a cool famous person? (Erik Mona--you are not allowed to answer this thread. You could just say that you were born on the same day as Erik Mona and that would be cool enough.)
This is somewhat of a moot point now, because I created a totally different character due to this ruling. However--here is the situation: I began playing in an ongoing campaign this evening. I was told to make a ninth level character, and the sky was the limit as far as race was concerned. I have always wanted to make an ogre mage character, and so I made a second level ogre mage monk. I saw the ECL as +7 for the Level Adjustment and +2 for the two levels of monk = level 9 character. However, in the Monster Manual, it says that all ogre magi have five levels of giant. The DM saw the ECL as +7 for the Level Adjustment, +5 for the levels of giant, and +2 for the levels of monk, making the ECL of the character 14. I felt that the five levels of giant were already counted for in the +7 Level Adjustment. I am totally satisfied with the character that I made as an alternative, and am not going to bring up this subject with the DM of this campaign. I just would like to know for my own sanity which of us was right.
I really dig Scott Nicholson's description. Although he is not a sci-fi or fantasy author per se, his horror fiction is outstanding. I think that his best work to date is The Manor. Totally creepy! And The Harvest could be considered a sci-fi novel.
