Please cancel my AP subscription...I now have more PF stuff than I will ever use and to be honest some of Paizo's recent decisions have turned me off on the game.

The Queen of the Swashbucklers and one of the most beautiful women ever to grace the silver screen.Passed away at the age of 95 on 24th October. The sheer number of classics she made will enshrine her as one of Hollywoods finest. Now only Olivia De Havilland remains of the stars of the Golden Age. Now if you will excuse me I'm off to watch "The Quiet Man"
This order has not arrived. Please arrange Redispatch. Thank You
Passing away at 90. The passing of the last of the great generation of British Actors who made their first appearances during the 1940's brings to an end the Golden Age of British Cinema. We shall not see it's like again.
I notice that the double sized order for August is to be sent Priority Mail even though I have not asked for stuff to be sent that way. As Priority Mail does not reach me any faster on this side of the Atlantic and as the order itself is a hefty proposition now that I am retired and living on a pension could you please just send it under the cheaper option. If this is not possible then I may have to cancel subscriptions
So here we are.. I'd like to welcome you all to the game and hope you will have as much fun with it as I do. We have one PbP beginner with us (Miss Lori) so I expect the rest off you to give her player the benefit of your experience in the medium. As you can see I'll be using a new alias to GM this game..kudos to those who get the reference. Please refer to the Campaign Info Page for further details of the Lottery .

Coming next month from Top Cow.. The Honor Harrington Comic Book This is designed to tie in with the forthcoming movie from Evergreen Studios
R.I.P Shirley Temple (Black) age 85 The Good Ship Lollipop has sailed for the last time. So now we are left with, Olivia De Havilland (97) Maureen O'Hara (93) Mickey Rooney (93) and Luise Rainer (104) off the Stars of the True Golden Age..(1932-47)
So, I walked into my FLGS on Monday and what did he have but a copy of Mythic Adventures.I bought it out of curiosity more than anything,and it helps keep him in business. Reading it I got the feeling that certain creatures in RotRL need to use these rules so I'm experimenting with them starting with Wet Papa Grazuul at Skulls Crossing. If it works then I'll use more Mythic foes but my party walks through encounters enough for me not to want to make them Mythic also. Has anyone else had the same feeling?
Having successfully escaped the Smugglers Shiv our party finds itself in need of an arcane caster..Wizards,Sorcerers or Witches of 4th level would be preferred.
Interviewer, Satirist and commentator...most famous for making Nixon squirm. That was his life that was.
So Pope Francis is on record as being totally in support of the Argentinian claim on the Falklands and has referred to the UK as'usurpers' in the past. This is going to be a problem as it will now encourage the madwoman in charge of Argentina to believe she has Papal sanction for her actions over the Islands. Off course the fact that 99% of the Falklands population just voted to stay British will be ignored..after all that was a democratic process.
So the House of Mouse is to remake one of the three movies that should never be remade..(the other two are Casablanca and Gone with the Wind) I'll withold judgement until I know more..but having said that I really enjoyed "Oz the Great and Powerful" and if Sam Raimi stays on board it could be something very special.
W8ith the announcement today that Pope Benedict is to retire from the Papacy at the end of this month the prospect of the next Pope being the last rears its ugly head. As this Pope was 'Glory of the Olive' according to the Prophecies of St Malachy then the next is going to be 'Petrus Romanus and oversee the destruction of Rome and the Dissolution of the Catholic Church. Just thought I'd mention it.
An Era ends as the last of the great Hollywood Cowboys passes at 91 leaving the survivors of the 'John Ford Stock Company' numbering two Patrick Wayne (8 bit parts between the ages of 11 and 17) and the greatness that is Maureen O'Hara
TV's Quincy (and Oscar Goldmann) passes at the Age of 90 and The worlds greatest Puppet Master follows at 83

Major Tony Nelson...gone at the age of 81 Off course he also played something in that minor show Dallas.
I just came back to BT after a long time away and all I can say to this book is that somewhere the Ghost of Natasha Kerensky is grinning broadly.
Please cancel my RPG subscription until further notice as I have no interest in the next 3 products in the line
Does anyone else think this bears a distinct resemblance to "Dies the Fire?"
So I went to see it Yesterday and I loved it..the interaction between the heroes was classic Marvel and Wheedon did a great job. I'll give it an A (It would have gotten an A+ if Natalie Portman had been in it)
In 1974 along with taking up playing D&D I bought my first Sword and Planet books..the entire NEL edition of the Mars and Venus stories. I've waited 38 years for this Movie and I can say I was satisfied.roll on the rest of the Trilogy What you expected me to Comment on the plot and the Special effect..no spoilers here except for..... Dejah Thoris..PWHOARRRRRR Oh and Jimmy Purefoy obviously enjoying himself immensely
And it begins...
Should the Elemental Affinity for these characters extend to other bloodlines connected with their element. For example should a Sylph Sorceress be able to use her Air Affinity with the Djinni or Stormborn Bloodlines. Thoughts?
Produced by..Brannon Braga (aka..The Man who killed Star Trek) Features...Time Travel Reaction..RUN AWAY RUN AWAY!!!!!!!
Why?
I inadvertantly duplicated a thread in the Music and Audio section..can someone please delete theone thread I have blanked
One of the Greats gone at (ironically) 78
I've noticed..and one of my PbP players has noticed the same thing..that ocassionally you get a line in a post that doesn't show up in normal view or when posting an initial reply but does when you edit..it's only occured in the one thread for me but it caused my player to miss some information. Any reason for this?
I just noted what I think might be a potential problem.. The first really good weapons the party gain in this adventure are all Eastern weapons (wakizashis) and therefore Exotic..meaning that to use them they are being feat taxed from the start.. This problem gets worse when they finally get to Minkai where most of what they can buy will be Exotic.. This one could be a game breaker.
I love Radovans search technique.
Sandpoint 4 years after the defeat of Karazoug With reports that the Licktoad goblins of Brinestump Marsh have grown unusually aggressive the mood in town is subdued. The reason for this uncharacteristic bravery seems clear—the goblins have somehow managed to arm themselves with what appears to be a considerable supply of fireworks. The problem stems not so much from the additional “firepower” these fireworks provide as from the inflated sense of ego and power that the devices have given the goblins—the fireworks have made them dangerously brave. Several merchant caravans and travelers have been attacked so far, and according to the victims, the damage caused by horses panicking at the sight and sound of exploding pyrotechnics is almost as destructive as the goblin attacks themselves. With the last few attacks resulting in severe injuries to three unfortunate travelers, the problem has escalated from an annoyance to a threat. However, as none of the attacks have yet inconvenienced Magnimar (only Sandpointers and other Lost Coasters have been hit so far), the city has been slow to react. Unwilling to idly sit by and wait for the goblin problem to escalate to actual deaths on the Lost Coast Road in order to attract Magnimar’s attention, Sandpoint’s leaders have put out the call for goblin exterminators. But after a time of upheaval a few years back involving goblins,giants, and even a dragon, Sandpoint has since returned to being a relatively sleepy town. It doesn’t take long for life to settle down once things return to normal, and with Varisia’s adventurers now more eager to try their luck at finding their fortunes in legendary Xin-Shalast, there simply aren’t a lot of volunteers to fight goblins around. Always running at a lean enrollment, Sandpoint’s city watch can’t afford to send patrols into the trackless expanse of Brinestump, although they have stepped up their presence along the Lost Coast Road itself. The task of wading into the notorious local wetland falls instead to adventurers—be they concerned locals honestly eager to aid the town or greedy mercenaries looking to make relatively easy coin. A few adventurers have already made the attempt, but nothing has been heard of them in the 3 days since they entered Brinestump Marsh, and just last night, another round of colorful explosions burst over the wetlands south of Sandpoint. The goblins are doubtless readying a new attack! You find yourselves in the taproom of the Rusty Dragon, the Inn run by Ameiko Kaijitsu reading the latest proclomation posted by Sherrif Hemlock It being in the interests off us all to deal with the current unrest occuring in the district the Council make the following pronouncement.The town of Sandpoint will pay 10 gp for every relatively fresh goblin ear delivered to the town hall—with an additional reward of 300 gp for the group who can bring in the head of the Licktoads’ leader, Chief Gutwad.
Please cancel my Pathfinder RPG subscription. I am doing this to avoid the horrendous postage costs for the beginners box but will be reactivating it once Bestiary 3 is on the horizon
OK Guys heres the OOC thread as promised. We can talk classes and once the Players guide is out move on to full concepts.
I must be crazy but as the PDF will be out next week this is a call for those who are not already involved in Pay by Post Games to indicate their interest in taking part in a Jade Regent game here. Please note that character concepts will not be required until the Players guide is available as James Jacobs has stated that it is essential to read the guide before creating a character for this AP.
From the BBC Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has threatened to attack Europe in revenge for Nato's operations in Libya. Col Gaddafi said Libya would target European "homes, offices, families" unless Nato stopped its campaign. He spoke via an audio message broadcast to tens of thousands of supporters gathered in a central Tripoli square. His message comes after France confirmed it had supplied weapons to anti-government rebels, delivering arms to Berber tribal fighters near Tripoli. In the broadcast, played via loudspeakers to gathered crowds in the capital's Green Square, he called on supporters to "march on the western mountains", the area where the weapons had been delivered. Then he warned Europe that Libyans would seek revenge. "These people [the Libyans] are able to one day take this battle [...] to Europe, to target your homes, offices, families, which would become legitimate military targets, like you have targeted our homes," he said. "If we decide to, we are able to move to Europe like locusts, like bees. We advise you to retreat before you are dealt a disaster," he added. His message come just days after the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Col Gaddafi, his son Saif al-Islam and Libyan intelligence chief Abdullah al-Sanoussi for crimes against humanity. International prosecutors allege government troops fired on civilian protesters during anti-Gaddafi street demonstrations earlier this year. Friday's rally was one of the largest in recent times, says the BBC's Rupert Wingfield-Hayes, in Tripoli, and the message was the first time that Col Gaddafi had been heard of in weeks.
Like at least one other poster on this board I have been sent a copy of HoG with pages 9-24 absent and pages 1-8 and 25-32 duplicated. Please arrange a replacement to be sent with my next order.
I am looking for one player for my ongoing Serpents skull PbP If anyone is interested have a look and see if you would fit in with the parties play style..I'll accept any decent character concept but Martial characters will get first look in
Last WW I veteran. Last witness of the scuttling of the High seas Fleet. Last man to serve in both World Wars. This leaves only one living person who served in uniform during WW I and she was a WRAF waitress on a Norfolk Airfield.
So who's signed up for this Tickets paid for and hotel booked. I'll be playing 4 PFS sessions over the weekend which should take Andrina to 7th level. Dave,Rob you have fair warning that you've got me at your tables again but Russ manages to escape me..
Well I know this probably means nothing to 99% of people here but I for one have been in a stated of elated shock since yesterday afternoon. What this means for the future of the UK as a single political entity noone can yet tell..we have 5 years to find out.
Let us utter a Klingon death cry for Captain Koloth who passed away on the 28th of April.
I was checking my downloads today and found the following missing from the list. Adventure paths 15-18 and 45-48. Is there any reason why these have vanished from my listings?
VC winner Tul Bahadur Pun aged 88..his citation reads War Office, 9th November, 1944
No. 10119 Rifleman Tulbahadur [sic] Pun, 6th Gurkha Rifles, Indian Army. In Burma on 23 June 1944, a Battalion of the 6th Gurkha Rifles was ordered to attack the Railway Bridge at Mogaung. Immediately the attack developed the enemy opened concentrated and sustained cross fire at close range from a position known as the Red House and from a strong bunker position two hundred yards to the left of it. So intense was this cross fire that both the leading platoons of 'B' Company, one of which was Rifleman Tulbahadur Pun's, were pinned to the ground and the whole of his Section was wiped out with the exception of himself, the Section commander and one other man. The Section commander immediately led the remaining two men in a charge on the Red House but was at once badly wounded. Rifleman Tulbahadur (sic) Pun and his remaining companion continued the charge, but the latter too was immediately wounded. Rifleman Tulbahadur Pun then seized the Bren Gun, and firing from the hip as he went, continued the charge on this heavily bunkered position alone, in the face of the most shattering concentration of automatic fire, directed straight at him. With the dawn coming up behind him, he presented a perfect target to the Japanese. He had to move for thirty yards over open ground, ankle deep in mud, through shell holes and over fallen trees. Despite these overwhelming odds, he reached the Red House and closed with the Japanese occupants. He killed three and put five more to flight and captured two light machine guns and much ammunition. He then gave accurate supporting fire from the bunker to the remainder of his platoon which enabled them to reach their objective. His outstanding courage and superb gallantry in the face of odds which meant almost certain death were most inspiring to all ranks and beyond praise. RIP
