So, I'm going all-in on VTT gaming, and have to say that it would be nice if there was some support for that directly from Paizo.

I know that AP subscriptions include the PDF for free, but after thinking about it, that's not what I really want. When it comes to the AP books, I'll always buy the dead tree edition just because I like that analog feeling probably.

What I really want is a "map pack" that includes all the maps from the AP (with and without squares, with and without GM labels). And as long as we are going that route, I wouldn't mind a similar "image pack" for things like NPCs faces and treasures. Anybody who has ever played the original, "Tomb of Horrors," knows that pictures are awesome. I want to bring that awesomeness to VTT.

Now, I know about the cards you sell for NPCs, and even the item cards for various APs, and I have purchased some of them in the past. But, again, I would rather just purchase from Paizo a ready made images and map pack, rather than do all the work needed after buying a physical product.

So, will you take my money? Please?

P.S. And if there is something else I need to do to make you take my money, please feel free to enlighten me :D


I'm trying to organize my own adventure path, and I'm using Scrivener, which is made for writing, but much more dynamic at organization than a usual word processor. The way I use it, it allows me to do everything I used to do with 3-ring binders, only much more neatly. Everything is sorted and I can make a separate "player's" binder.

Scrivener supports links within itself, as well as web links, picture files, and PDFs. So you can throw in whatever online resources you want right into your document.

The software is $40, but the trial period is 100% functional for 30 days. A lot of writers love the software, and if you give it a try I think you'll understand why.

Synching with the iPad is available now, but you'll have to read up on it to be sure, as I don't use an iPad.

A wiki is still a good option if you prefer having everything online, but I feel like Scrivener gives me just a bit more reassurance because it reminds me more of how I used to work with real paper and binders (which probably reveals that I'm just old *sigh*).
