Howdy all!

I'm working on Ashen Frontiers, a new post-apocalyptic fantasy setting, somewhat inspired by Dark Sun, but it is also a new project, one that I am committed to making sure that all potential players can find a place for characters that interest them. So there is no slavery, but there are gladiatorial arenas. The folks that fight there are not forced to do, but taking big risks in the hopes of fame and fortune. So plenty of parallels with modern-day sports, but more options for those sorts of characters.

With the OGL kerfuffle, it seemed really wise to support Pathfinder as a rules system option. Although I am most well known for my work in the 5e space, having more options seemed like a better idea. And, with 5e players taking a new look at Pathfinder, I figured that an opportunity to see the same concept expressed in both systems might be of interest.

So to make that process as easy as possible, I applied a couple of weeks ago to Compatibility License program. I know that I could just use OGL/ORC material and don't really plan to use anything outside of what would qualify under those licenses, but the PCL seemed like the clearest path forward, and helped to support Paizo (which I believe is a laudable goal in and of itself). I haven't heard back yet, and when the Remaster Project was announced, I thought to myself 'this is probably the reason why', but I wanted to ask: if you've done the PCL for your own reasons, how long the process take? Any better ways to handle things? Any advice for a designer newer to Pathfinder from a development standpoint? I've got a Pathfinder stan in my corner, and some other resources there, but any inside baseball advice is very appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Hi there,

I took a look into your account, and it seems that your order for the Beginner Box was not fully submitted. I attempted to submit the order for you, but the payment method was declined because of insufficient funds.

If you'd like to finish submitting the order on your end once the payment issues are worked out, you should be able to do so by going to the Humble Bundle Redemptions page on your account, and scroll just below the codes you redeemed. You should see the order waiting to be completed. Go through the steps 1 - 3, and hit the "Place Your Order" button on the last step when you're ready. That should submit the order and send you an automatic confirmation email.

If you have any problems with that page, just let me know and I'll be glad to try to submit it again from my end. Otherwise, please don't hesitate to ask if there are any further questions or concerns that you may have in the meantime.

Thanks!
Katina

Every time I try to go to that page, I get "You have made too many requests for the same page too quickly.

Please wait a minute before trying again."

And, of course, I haven't been there.

If you could try to process it again, the other issue should be resolved.
