Just in time for the holiday season, DragonWing Games has released their newest Drop Zone encounter, Count Your Blessings. Count Your Blessings is a Drop Zone designed to test a party of adventurer's physical endurance to the weather elements and their mental fortitude while they make their way through the countryside towards their next destination. It starts out with a simple attack by a band of outlaws in the cold of night. However, the adventurers soon find out that something slightly more sinister is afoot as they journey to their destination. It will take every ounce of courage not to panic when they face their final challenge. If they survive, they will truly count their blessings and be quite thankful.

Adjustable for a standard party of adventurers from 4th to 6th levels although information is provided on how to scale the encounters for groups up to 12th level. Location is open fields, hills and woodland areas common to travel between towns and settlements.

Drop Zones: Count Your Blessings is a 26-page PDF that retails for $4.99.

What is a Drop Zone encounter?

A Drop Zone encounter is not an adventure in the usual sense, but is designed as a finite, independent area you can drop into most any campaign world. Each encounter is a geographic area that contains specific components, i.e. structures, events, creatures, items, effects, etc. All components are fully detailed along with several variations.

What a Drop Zone encounter doesn't have is a specific plotline, an expected outcome. How your PCs react to the components of the encounter or how the components react to the PCs isn't preordained. You are provided with numerous options and ideas to pick and choose from, all to help you mold this encounter towards your group's and your campaign's unique needs.

You can weave each Drop Zone into the storyline of your own home brew campaign or simply use each as a short diversion between adventures. Either way, Drop Zones are a quick and effortless way to spice up the more unremarkable portions of your campaign world. Remember to read the entire encounter and all additional information before attempting to run your players through it. Enjoy!

I received notification on 10/28 that my Golem sale order (526768) was being shipped. However, I was very surprised to find out that it was being shipped to an address that I hadn't occupied in 4 years and not the one that I entered when I filled out all of the fields. As a result, the contents of my package is now on their way to a place over an hour away.

If my residential changes can be tracked easily enough for royalty payments, then the expectations for product orders should be the same. I expect this situation to be corrected within a reasonable amount of time.

Thank you.

Over at the DragonWing Games website, we have been releasing weekly sneak peeks of the Pathfinder version of Lore of the Gods. The book is set to release in late fall of this year. Justin Sluder has completed the necessary conversions and Jeremy McHugh will be doing an all new cover. I encourage everyone to stop by the revised DragonWing website and get your fill of sneak peeks.

Hey folks-

I've been trying to email Vic and Chris Self all day and they keep coming back as mailer daemons. (I really need to stat one of those suckers out some day soon...)

Was it part of the site downtime?

Given the strong demand that there has been for both print and pdf versions of the new, revised Torn Asunder: Critical Hits for Pathfinder, I am curious about how the response would be for an updated Arms & Armor PFRPG Edition?

Like Torn Asunder, this would not only be an updated book, but with expanded content as well. We would add all new material and bring in new OCG material from the open source Pathfinder compatible supplements. Most likely, this would be a hardcover release, which means the print cost would be higher (somewhere in the $40-$50 range).

So Paizonians, what say you? Would such a book be welcome at your table? Is there anything in particular you would like to see included that fits the general theme?

The pdf version of the new Torn Asunder book is now live here at Paizo.

If you find that you can't wait for your print copy to arrive, you now have another option to tide you over in the meantime. :)

Any thoughts or plans to put together a multi-page character folio for Pathfinder? I know I would buy one. :)


I am happy to say that the files for the new Torn Asunder have been uploaded and are on their way to the printer. The book will definitely have an October release date for the print version. :)

One of the projects I am toying around with is a book of characters that aren't your average NPCs. Instead they would be individuals with colorful personalities and natures. They would would test boundaries of what a society may deem normal. For example, you may have a noble lady who is thought of quite highly due to her philanthropic charities yet there is an air of mystery because no one has ever actually seen her. Rumors abound that she is a prisoner in her own house or that she doesn't even exist at all.

At this point, I am leaning towards making the book systemless - no game stats at all, only descriptive and flavoful text about each individual.

Is this something that you could make use of? If so, what else would you like to see included?

Since this is a revised edition of Torn Asunder: Critical Hits for Pathfinder, we felt that new cover art would be ideal. Hot from the pencils of artist Paul Abrams, this new cover is totally awesome and completely rocks! I am going to hate putting words and logos over top of parts of this great image.

If you have trouble viewing the piece, I suggest you use Firefox or Chrome. Some IE users may not be able to access the website.

DragonWing Games is currently adapting the original Torn Asunder: Critical Hits for the new Pathfinder edition. This latest version will contain new material that supplements the Pathfinder RPG rules and expands on them. For this reason, we are initiating an open call for new material.

If you have any nifty ideas that you would like to submit for consideration, write them up and email them to us at creech@dragonwing.net with the subject header, "Torn Asunder Open Call". Specifically, we are looking for new healing items, herbs, prestige classes, and creatures that would fit the Torn Asunder theme but be written for Pathfinder. Additional rules to cover bleeding and shock are also possibilities as long as they do not override the basic critical hits rules developed in Torn Asunder. In that regard, we encourage folks who plan to submit to be familiar with the existing Torn Asunder book and cater your ideas so they mesh as easily as possible with the rules contained in the book.

Already, we have completely reworked the Called Shots system mechanic so it is not open to abuse. In addition Mike Kogan, a certified expert in prostethics, has written new material for the chapter on prosthetic limbs.

Submissions that are accepted will be paid at a rate of .02/word (after editing) no later than 90 days after publication of the electronic version. A print version of Torn Asunder: Critical Hits PFRPG Edition will be released sometime around Gen Con. All submissions should be completed no later than Monday, April 26th for consideration.

If you do not own a copy of the original Torn Asunder: Critical Hits, you may purchase an electronic copy for $9.99 at the: Paizo Store or a print copy for $22.95 at Studio 2 Online Store
