Good suggestions.

To be fair to Lamplighter, I know he has had numerous discussions with certain individuals -- it's tough when you really want to be the better person (and I know Lamplighter is most certainly so).

It is my responsibility as a GM to hold people at my table accountable.

I was 'lucky' enough to GM the aforementioned player/character last week at my FLGS PFS. The player is likeable enough while not playing, but once you get going he becomes very difficult to judge. Every ruling made is scrutinized and the game becomes a task and not fun. The other players at the table were becoming a bit agitated, rolling their eyes and whatnot.

The character was super-optimized. I went home that night and rebuilt the character from scratch to see if the AC was possible in PFS play, and in short bursts (15 minute adventuring day) it is possible, but not likely, and I will audit this character this coming week much more closely.

In the end, not only was the player being somewhat irritating (although they can by quite nice while not playing), and even after I tried to get them to be more cooperative with the rest of the group, the person in question was oblivious and making the game not fun for anyone else.

I will not let this happen again at another table I run.

Please, if anyone is interested, or is playing PFS, please follow some basic common sense, don't be a jerk, make sure that you and the rest of the people you are playing with are having fun. If you find you are taking the spotlight, make sure that you enjoy it, and then let everyone else have some of the limelight too!

You can't play Pathfinder alone, so make sure to make some friends along the way. You'll appreciate the game that much more.

I GM'd this character last week. I will respond shortly.

kool idea. thanks.

very nice idea. thank you.

Nice im from Manitba; short trip. To be fair we have lots of great players (& GMs)!

You may see me this summer!

I can live with that.

I guess I'm just using observations from my own lodge, where the players who have a habit of 'not playing well with others' (very small minority) usually are the power gamers and optimisers. This may have exaggerated my correlation of optimisers with Role vs Roll ... please forgive me.

I disagree... you can still make an optimised character, just dont use it optimally if you are playing in an easy scenario where you are taking ALL the spotlight from the other players.

All three of the following adventures are fun and rather straight forward for newer GMs.

Frostfur Captives
The Infernal Vault
Citadel of Flame

Gratz Chris! Always love your input on the boards.

I guess this discusion comes down to style. Are you a Role Player or a Roll Player. I think that EVERYONE at the table should have an opportunity to have fun - so we should all build (or at least play) our characters with that in mind. Rule Zero - don't be a jerk.

Awesome start to the campaign Thursty. We can take it!

Halvar Dannevirke (Bar 2) Human,Ulfen (Natural Leader Type)
Tor Uldstone (Fighter 6) Dwarf (Older Advisor)
Si'Ethi Mu'Ta'Bao (Cleric 3) Human, Mwangi (Traveller)
Garnthalisbane (Cleric 3, Wiz 2) Human, Cheliaxian (Master of All)
Rosl Thar, Keeper of Endless Sin (Inquisitor of Pharasma 1) Human, Taldane
Grim Nibblets (Fighter 1) Halfling (Freedom Fighter)
Ciarr Osric Wolviston (Cavalier 1) Human, Taldan

Really surprising news.

Interesting idea. Please keep it true to the Pathfinder System. I think a turn based 'party' style game like the old TSR gold box games would be fun to play.

Whatever comes out of this experiment, I will try out.

Good luck friends.

Awesome job!

Congrats to all invloved.

I am a member of the Winnipeg Lodge, and Scott Young (VC) and Myron Pauls (VL) are excellent choices to help the Winnipeg market. Keep up the good work Mr.Brock.

What a great topic. I would love some Golarion specific figures, such as:

From the Inner Sea World Guide
- page 57 Thrune Agent
- page 73 Gray Gardener
- page 101 Knight of Ozen (my personaLl favorite)
- page 105 Ulfen Shieldbeaer
- page 101 Mendevian Crusader
- page 141 Chernasardo Ranger
- page 149 Risen Guard
- page 161 Priest of Razmir
- page 177 Knight of Abendego

Also, If in every set, you could supply a few models from common monster stock like:

Skeleton, Zombie, Goblin, Orc, Kobold, Uniformed Guard (ie Galtic), spider.

Its nice to have multiple models for different races, and of course, nice usable heroic models for PCs

Please consider putting in figures with different weapons types, polearms to kukri to a halfling with a sling staff.

Thanks for asking!

Greetings fellow Pathfinders,

To help Scott (Lamplighter) out, I have created a 'secret' Pathfinder Lodge Winnipeg group for our Lodge. If anyone wants to have access, just friend me at Matthew Tyson Lane, there is a picture of a wolf-husky dog as my avatar.

This is a new group site, so our lodge members will be joining as more are informed.

All non-Winnipeg pathfinders are welcome to join as well.

Have a great Canadian Thanksgiving everyone.

Matt (aka Braxthesage)

I enjoyed this scenario as well, although the final battle was extremely challenging.

I think you really need to look at the advantages of this class. Really cool ideas but can easily be a broken character with two weapon fighting.
