I didn’t see anyone talking about this “miniature” from WizKids.

Please cancel all of my subscriptions and any unshipped items. I would still like my order 8059804 so please just move that from the sidecart and ship the cheapest method.

I am also missing Pathfinder Society scenarios as well.

Has anyone come up with fun or unique familiar ideas using the rules for familiars? It seems that with the build your own, you could make some interesting familiars.

I am having the same issue. It is happening on the Adventure Path and Corebook Subscriptions but not the Lost Omens one.

For anyone that is interested, the Savage Worlds Adventure Edition kickstarter started today and is already over 500% funded.

Go to the Kickstarter here.

I really don't wanna watch a two-three hour long movie based on someone's played D&D 2nd edition campaign that sucked so bad it was one of the books I couldn't force myself to finish.

Not sure what this means ....

Many people have the mistaken impression that the original Dragonlance novels were based off of a campaign that they were running. There are some character traits that made it into the novels based on interesting traits that were developed during some playtest session of the first couple of modules. The novels actually quickly outpaced the modules and the modules were much more influenced by the novels rather than the other way around.

My mother collapsed again. This time she broke her nose when she hit the floor. When she woke up this morning, her blood sugar was 79. She took her four units of Humalog after she ate some fruit. Then her sugar dropped to 51 in the span of about 3 hours. The doctor at the ER dropped her Lantus from 22 units to 18. Of course, I had to call off work to take her to the Hospital. *sigh* This isn't how I wanted my day to go.

I really don't like when folks take a set dose of insulin because that's the amount they're arbitrarily supposed to take regardless of what their actual blood glucose level is at when it's time to take a bolus. Those 4 units of a fast acting insulin like Humalog would in an ideal world drop someone by around 160 mg/dL over the next 3-4 hours, depending on insulin resistance if present. Taking that when already borderline low blood sugar is dangerous. Some sort of sliding scale for boluses to take into account for highs and lows in actual glucose level is ideal.

I really hope that she's doing better.

She's doing better today. Last night, I bought her a case of regular Pepsi, for use when she gets sick and shaky. And, on Freehold's recommendation, I also got her Ice Cream. Naturally, she asked for chocolate. I'll do a set of safety checks via phone today.

If she drinks a regular soft drink to raise her blood sugar, she is better off drinking a warm one. It will raise her blood sugar quicker. That was a useful tip that my friend's doctor gave her.

Please cancel my remaining Starfinder subscription. Thanks.

That seems to be how you can tell if you have a cat or dog. A dog exposing its tummy wants tummy rubs. A cat exposing its tummy wants only 1d3 tiny rubs, and then it is biteys and kickies time.

So true. Half that if the cat is male, minimum zero. I had this kitten once, where lying on his back was simply an invitation for a fight.

My cat lying on his back is always a crap shoot. Sometime he wants his belly rubbed for a while, others it is a trap. A lot of times I think that he wants his belly rubbed but the temptation of the defenseless hand is too much to resist.

My FLGS is a stickler for the Free RPG Day materials. They work really hard to get people in running and playing games. We were talking about what could be run for Starfinder. Does anyone have any ideas?

After helping unpack the free RPG day stuff at a local game store, I just want to know one thing: where are the space goblin miniatures? I love the art for the space goblin. And they seem to retain their potential for causing chaos in combat.

They should be able to give you provisional credit fairly quickly. The banking center will give you a list of transactions and let you fill out a report of the charges that you are disputing. Sadly, it is frequently someone that you know that got ahold of your checkbook or debit card.

Now that The current adventure path is complete, please cancel my AP subscription.

I am by no means a MH profession or involved in the field in any way. My general observations in over 30 years of playing are that gaming attracts people that feel socially awkward whether this is due to shyness or mental health issues. I think that gaming is important for them and they feel a sense of community and acceptance that they don't find elsewhere.

Having said that, I can't honestly say that there is a higher percentage of people with real MH issues in gaming because I don't have any form of training that would allow me to make any real diagnosis. My gut is that it is higher because of my aforementioned reasons.

One of the things that I possibly see happening as gaming becomes more mainstream, however, is that people with mental health issues won't be as accepted in these crowds. I have seen the generic gamer change from the shy, awkward nerdy type that tended to accept other gamers of all types because they felt like outcasts themselves to the mainstream crowd which brings a wider breadth of personalities and opinions, positive and negative.

I wanted to start my AP subscription back to get the Strange Aeons adventure path. I currently only have the option of starting with #6 of Hells Vengence or #2 of Strange Aeons. I would assume that it must be too late to get #1 but if I take the option of #6 of Hell's Vengence, I assume that I will also get #1 of Strange Aeons. I really have no use for #6 when I don't have the rest of the adventure path. Is there a way for me to start my subscription with issue #1 of Strange Aeons?

My concerns on seeing the trailer was that the movie was just going to be a slapstick comedy that didn't at all follow the tone of the first movie. I had to drag one of my friends who didn't want to go see it because we are both huge Ghostbusters fans and he didn't want to see a favorite franchise from our youth get destroyed. Instead, we both thought that the move did an excellent job of capturing the mix of comedy and seriousness that the original had.

I thought that the characters were well done and didn't look at any of them and say that is the Peter, theres Ray, etc... I thought Leslie Jones' character brought her own specialized knowledge to the team. In a ghost investigation business, having someone that can tell you the history of a location off the top of her head would be extremely valuable.

Overall I liked the movie and I honestly think that while some sexism is hurting ticket sales, the trailer is doing far worse. I believe that there is a group of fans of the originals that think that their franchise is getting the same treatment as Will Ferril's Land of the Lost. I am hoping word of mouth will get those people to go see it. I would like to see a sequel.

Should we be concerned that a zombie seems to be the one enjoying life the most right now?

Will I be able to purchase a hardcover copy through paypal anywhere? It'd have to ship to Germany.

Yes, you can buy via PayPal using a special code in BackerKit. I can set that up.... Soon?

I would be interested in this as well.

Hi Nim Folkor,

I have cancelled the Northlands Saga Complete from this order.
You should get an updated confirmation email.

Thanks!
~Sharaya

Thanks, you guys are fantastic as always.

Would it be possible to remove the Northlands Saga Complete from this order? I want to keep the pawns and the other 6 Northlands books. Thanks.

Please cancel Order 3862186

Please immediately cancel all of my subscriptions. Thank you.

I would like to cancel my Pathfinder Battles Subscription.

Does a ghoul bloodline sorcerer count as a ghoul for purpose of the ghoul feats? Access to the Warren Digger feat would suggest it but I didn't if an official ruling was given.

Please cancel my pathfinder roleplaying game subscription. Keep my other subscriptions.

Right now my Order History has about 163 items across 7 pages. Could you guys maybe work on this a bit so it's easier to view them, instead of the big centered boxes simply a table, also show the amount paid without having to click on each order individually.

Is all the money that you've spent at Paizo something that you really want to know? :)

It was an exhibition game: We were trying the 3.0 D&D system for the first time. Everyone else had a bad opinion of the Fighter. Everything else got a TON of Special Abilities.

I had a Greatsword +2, an 18 strength, Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Weapon Focus (Greatsword),Weapon Specialization (Greatsword), Improved Critical (Greatsword), Improved Initiative, and Toughness (Added 3 HP each time you took it back then).

We saw a large group of creatures in the cavern ahead, and we moved to the attack. I think that they were Lizard Men. I volunteered to soften them up.

Gared ran at them, and OBLITERATED the one Lizard Man he could hit. The rest swarmed him. Surrounded, by enemies, he could not expect aid from the Wizard, or risk taking Fireball Damage. Thusly, I said that I'd handle them alone. The next round, I did.

Great Cleave required that I 'Drop' one target before being allowed to attack the next in line. Lizard Men do NOT have enough Hit Points to survive what I dished out that day.

The GM described the action once my attacks had been resolved, and only ONE Lizard Man was left (I never hit that last guy at all).

"A ring of blood and gore EXPLODES away from the Fighter, as all but one is hacked IN HALF with one swipe of Gared's sword..."

Every other Player had their jaws on the table. NOBODY had ever seen Great Cleave used before (exhibition game)!

I will NEVER forget that evening!!!

This reminds me of my first 3.0 character. He was a half-orc fighter that aspired to be a paladin (with his impressive 11 Cha).

He was 4th level with a 20 Str and greatsword. He got surrounded by 8 opponents with 9 HP each. With his greatsword doing 2d6+7 damage, all he had to do was hit 8 times in a row (which he did) to turn his opponents into chunks. We still talk about that to this day.

I think an OGL is good for the hobby. It may not be good for a certain business, but I feel it is for the hobby as a whole.

I think in the long run it was good for the community, but I dunno if that was true at first. The early years of 3.0 (and running into the first few years of 3.5 as well) saw a glut of some pretty crappy OGL releases.

Not to mention the push (seemingly spearheaded by Monte Cook) for d20 to be the ONLY system. Seriously, how many great (or even mediocre) games had inferior d20 editions published? :P

*cough* Deadlands *cough*

Awesome thanks!! I have never read any of these systems, keen to learn some more. I hear good things about Fate.

The thing to remember is that in all games it still comes down to GM control. A GM can always refuse to let something happen and I can't say that I have seen a single system that doesn't explicitly state this. Even FATE declarations that have been referred to here don't have to be allowed by the GM, it just gives a mechanic for players to generate story points/twists that the GM can accept if he feels that it is reasonable and/or fits the story.

While I err on the side of whatever is the most fun for the players, I will never let a rule in a book have the final say in how things will be run in my game. There can be the most detailed and balanced rules for crafting magic items ever and I will ignore them if it doesn't fit the campaign. As James Jacobs has said in his thread numerous times when asked how something would work, "It depends on the kind of story we are trying to tell."

I am also showing 209 pounds for my order as well. I am seeing the shipping calculation at the top is less than what is listed at the bottom. I am assuming that the top is correct since the bottom is exactly $10 more than that top which means the bottom probably isn't including the $10 discount.

Can someone tell me what is going on with this order? It was ordered nearly a month ago but show pending due to back ordered items. This is a golem sale order which I thought couldn't be back ordered since all the items were buy them until their gone. The only possibility that I see is the inner sea map. Please let me know what is holding this up and I may adjust the order to get it moving.

The first item in your subscription needs to ship before the discount kicks in.

So will my first case not be 30% off of the Paizo price or I won't see the correct price until the shipment occurs? I am not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand how this works and honestly determine what my cheapest option is.

The Pathfinder Battles subscription says that it is 30% of of Paizo's price but my cart is showing 30% off of the retail price. I just want to confirm that the price currently being shown is incorrect. Thanks.

For anyone interested in great miniature buildings and castles, check out Miniature Building Authority's Castle Kickstarter. They have the best miniature building terrain available.

MBA Castle Kickstarter.

I would like to cancel everything in my side cart except the Rise of the Runelords Map Folio and the Second Darkness Map Folio.

Has anyone starting converting Golarion to 5th edition? I am interested in running some APs using the D&D 5th edition rules. I started looking at converting the deities but have done much more yet. I thouhgt that there might be someone else out there considering the same thing.

Paizo just released a Catoblepas figurine recently. How big is it?

It is large.

I just got mine a couple days ago. Thanks again.

Apologize to Treerazer for the typo in his name. Then wonder why the bar was built so huge in the first place!

Geez, Jason isn't that big.

I've never seen animals burn businesses or shoot cops, but I grant you, New Hampshire doesn't have as much wildlife as it used to.

Have you held the new PHB in your hands and flicked through the pages, holding the remarkably slim tome with what appears to be 16 point font? A friend of mine, true story, was concerned that he'd picked up a misprint or juniors edition copy and went up to the store clerk to ensure that what he was holding was actually the new full-sized PHB. It is in a strict apples to apples comparison that I am finding myself disappointed. The new book doesn't only fail to stack up to the CRB in player content, but it fails to stack up to its 3.0, 3.5, and 4e counterparts.

Perhaps your friend overreacted and should have actually looked at the page count of his "slim" rulebook before asking because it ties as the biggest rulebooks for D&D yet.

Per Amazon.com
1st Edition PHB - 126 pages
2nd Edition PHB - 255 pages
3.5 PHB - 320 pages
4th Edition PHB - 317 pages
5th Edition PHB - 320 pages

If he was comparing to the CRB then that is a mistake because it was both the players and DM's information crammed into one book.

Personally I am looking forward to trying something out that is a little simpler. After thirty years of gaming and every edition of D&D and then Pathfinder, I want a little simpler. I still intend to play Pathfinder in our ongoing campaign but hope to try out 5th edition as well. I suspect that there are people who will leave Pathfinder for the simplicity of 5th edition and people who play 5th who decide to move to Pathfinder for the complexity.

In all likelihood, in the next few years, D&D will grow more complex as Wizards continues to release more splat books. In the end, there is no wrong choice, play the game that best appeals to you and you players.

I am going to assume they will have rules for firearms. Soonest we can expect would be the DMG, but I am fairly sure it would be in a future supplement book next year.

Wizards said that there will rules for guns in the DMG.
