Any news on whether Core will be available to purchase at UK Games Expo?


Looking forward to the rebalancing!

Quick question, their site says that Paizo will be at the UK Games Expo, so assuming that's true, will we be able to buy copies of the core set there?

For people wondering about shipping costs:

Instead of using the Subscription product (which only shows "Cheapest possible"), add the actual item to your cart. Both the Core and Curse sets can be added to your cart from the Preorder tab on this page. Then, if you click on Checkout and go to the Shipping tab, it will list the actual shipping costs.

Thanks, mate. That was far from intuitive for me.

Oddly enough, it shows cheapest shipping to UK at 29,58$ (so perhaps still thereabouts for most of Western Europe) - which is... the same as shipping to Canada?!? Either we're getting a great deal over here, or you guys are getting majorly ripped :(

Eh? For me it shows as 40.64$ (core set), so that's 90$ total, but then there's VAT, so we're talking about £90. I don't think import duty applies at this cost, but if it does its even more prohibitive. Jeez

EDIT: 29.58$ for Crimson Throne shipping, plus 40$ for it's cost on the sub, and 20% VAT brings us to £63.89. If it's a gift (and clearly labelled as such on the box otherwise how will customs know), you might be able to have VAT waived. The question is, how much will a retailer locally charge?

If core and throne ship together, I calculate it at £128.42. Even as a gift you are charged VAT here.

Final edit on this pricey post- The legal requirement of "gift" requires that it be bought and sent between individuals, so you're always hit with VAT. With that in mind, the definitive UK prices based on current data are:
Core: £81
Crimson: £64
Both: £128
If you're not buying through the sub at 20% off, you're looking at another £10-20 I reckon.

this option is especially useful for non-US subscribers who want to get most of the subscription benefits without having to pay the unfortunately hefty international shipping fees for Core, which weighs in at a bit over 4 pounds.

I'm having trouble finding out how much those shipping fees are - would anybody be able to advise how much the postage to the UK is? I'd rather find out before it suddenly leaves my account, and switch subs if necessary.


The ghoul says: "If undefeated, end your turn"

Okay, so this is simple in theory. I fail the combat check, fail to defeat, apply end of turn effects then reset my hand and I'm done.

What if I'm encountering it on somebody else's turn? Okay, well my intuition says it's not my turn to end, so I do nothing.

I have two questions:
What happens if the ghoul was summoned by another card? If that card has effects that depend on the defeated/undefeated state of the monster, do they trigger or is the turn just over?

Specifically (though different), what happens if I encounter the Ghoul due to Nebta-Khufre's ability? I should end my turn, but I'm in the middle of encountering Nebta. If I do end my turn, where does Nebta go? Is he evaded?
