<p>What's this about blaming GCHQ for spying on your election? We don't do things like that over here. Opinion over here is that an ex TV Personality is stroking his ego again. No facts, just innuendo.</p>
<p>His view that millions of illegal voters voted Democratic because he lost the popular vote is astonishing.</p>
<p>My condolences on the vote. I hope you get a more moderate centrist government next time, whichever party wins. Meantime we have 2 years of Brexit hell, plus a chance of Scotland breaking away from the Union after 300 years. (Like California breaking from USA).</p>

<p>A friend of mine has been running a campaign starting at lvl 12, including the Occultist book,amongst others.</p>
<p>In a recent battle (I'm a Kineticist. lvl 12 TK, took Fire as 2md element at 7th) I had to go invisible to stay alive & summoned Fire Elementals (which lasted about a round).</p>
<p>Now my friend says that this is broken, nore powerful than even a wizard who can only summon a few per day. (Forgetting the fct that I only summoned about 5 that day). </p>
<p>He says that is broken and never wants to use the Occult book ever again, anywhere.</p>
<p>This is offset by his determinatination that another friend in the same game wields an oversized chainsaw in each hand, with many attacks each round, doing over 100hp damage more than my Kinetecist each round.</p>
<p>Does anyone else think Kineticists are overpowered in light of the dual wielding oversized chainsaws monster?</p>
<p>I'll accept his views since he's my friend & it's his game. Wondering if I'm so out of kilter not to think his is the only view?</p>

<p>Recently had a GM rule that since bullets do both piercing and bludgeoning damage they can't hurt a creature immune to bludgeoning.</p>

<p>I'm a regular GM at a couple of conventions here in UK.</p>
<p>Is there a way we can get some store credit to 'buy' PDF's instead of books?</p>
<p>It's just that I have mobility issues and although the books look great, it's impossible to carry them around. (Won't all fit in a rucksack & I walk with a stick)</p>
<p>I typically need over a dozen hardbacks for my PFS games at Conception, so I carry a tablet PC with them as PDF's. So it would be easier to just get a PDF of the book instead.</p>
<p>It would also be cheaper for Paizo, since they won't need to give printed copies as a reward. Instead we can just be given a voucher code which we can redeem when we're next online. It also gives a a greater choice in what we can get.</p>
<p>I'm running a game at Dragonmeet on Saturday, plus at least 3 (usually 5 or more) at Conception in January.</p>
<p>Just a suggestion (save a tree)!
