More thoughts... maybe you could have different levels of war tokens. One for skirmishes or raids etc. There could be costs associated with these tokens too that would replicate the costs of doing those actions. But maybe these tokens can be combined to "upgrade" the token. Im not sure what the levels are but lets say several smaller guilds want to go against a large guild but they cant have a war token due to being too small or just cant afford one. So, instead they form an alliance of small guilds that can combine their tokens to match a war token and then declare war.
@Being: Exactly what I was thinking. Lets face it there war should not be rampant in the game but it should definitely should be an option. Maybe in order to wage war each party must hold a war token. Its kind of like saying by holding this token I agree to be willing to have someone wage war on me "consent".
This is a very interseting topic and one that I feel should be a significant aspect of the game. Afterall, it does take place in the River Kingdoms right and the concpet IS about building a kingdom. However, I dont want to play in a game that is nothing but war either. I wonder if a mechanic can be built into the game where nations/settlements can earn some kind of WAR token and they then can make use of them. Im thinking kind of like the CHALLANGES in the NFL. Each team gets so many to use. If you go to war and win you get to keep your token. If you lose its gone. Also, maybe there are only so many tokens available. This would limit the number of wars and help controll who is warring with whom. I also think that costs should be a major factor in war and think that alignment should impact the cost of doing war. I could see a way that a good aligned settlement gains a number of war tokens and therefore is able to establish a region that is reasonably peaceful. At the same time an evil settlement would adversly affect a region making it chotic and wartorn. I suppose these tokens could even become a commodity something that is tradeable.
I love the idea of this superpack offer but I think it might have more appeal if it was presented with a dollar value worth of PDF purchases instead of offering these specific PDF files. I personally have a some of these files already and frankly some of the others I have little to no interest in getting.
This is unrelated to the alliance and new player packs but it is something that Ive been wondering for a while now. My questoion is can a player that adventures to a cratures lair stake claim to the creatures lair after defeating them? Can they then utilize that lair as a start for building their own base of operations? If so can another PC kill that player and take over that base as well?

I had Pathfinder AP subscriptions for the first two full AP's w/ PDF's and got a few of the 3rd before I had to cancel the subscription. I also purchased the PF core rulebook at GenCon last year and got the PDF of that at that time. As for a different email address I don't think I have used a different one than the HOTMAIL, but I did get the notice of Core rule book download through my GMAIL account so maybe that is the problem. How do I check this out? Terry
I received this email (provided below) concerning my recent AP subscription renewal and it states that it will be shipping the item to an old address. When I check the order it states "Terry Kolhoff's address" at the top of the order, but at the bottom it lists my current address as "other address". I can't seem to get the system to correct this information. [redacted for security] |
