Did someone say Starfinder Special Edition Rulebooks subscription?

<.<

Hooray! Thank you for the news!

Guess it’s time to send an email about converting my subscription.

We are now into April... any word one way or the other on a Special Edition subscription before subs kick off?

It's getting close to April... Any official word on Special Edition sub for Starfinder?

What time does the Warehouse close or that shipping stops today?

Just curious, my credit card has been authorized and pending since yesterday and I'm hoping it will show before the weekend.

Or if I'm in for the Long Watch.

I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure the warehouse is closed by now. So no books this weekend for us. :(

I got charged this morning... so I've been refreshing email and checking my orders all day. Still waiting... but soon!

I can't wait. I'm expecting this to be bursting from the seams with Benevolence!

Any updates on the seemingly excessively large file size on the PDF? I've been holding off on downloading hoping it will be reigned in a bit. Seems to be happening more and more often where we end up with 300+MB PDFs.

From the Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Project! blog post

Will the new Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster books have Special Editions?

Yes. We are looking into various exciting print options for these books and will post more information soon.

Thanks! I missed that one in the blog post.

Will the new Remaster books be a part of this subscription?

Chiming in with my disappointment of not having digital options direct from Paizo. I don't care for or need one exclusively available from a VTT vendor if that's the announcements they are expecting at PaizoCon.

Personally, I input my data into my VTT myself and without PDF/JPG options that means I have to break out the scanner...

I did notice that the Sword Scion background says;

Quote:

You gain access

to Aldori dueling swords and can purchase one as part of
your starting equipment.

But those cost 20 gold and starting characters get 15 gold... is this supposed to provide a free Aldori dueling sword, it seems a bit confusing?

I believe the Aldori Dueling Sword was updated in errata to only cost 2gp in the World Guide. Looks like this player's guide maybe pulled the old incorrect price.

Since I am subscribed to the Starfinder APs and pre-ordered Redshift Rally... and my monthly Sub order was processed an hour and a half before the new Starfinder Adventures sub was announced, am I still getting the PDF for this free or should I try to contact customer support to cancel Redshift Rally or convert it to the Sub before it ships?

Please email Customer Service.

Done! Thanks for the swift response!

Holding off for the Subscription option here too...

I look forward to having fun with folks at PaizoCon, both playing games and just chatting.

Does this mean we will not get any more core sets ever? :(

That will make me very sad. I was hoping for an Extinction Curse game eventually.

With the change to the Core Set and AP system they did in 2019 I was really looking forward to more content for PACG. My friend and I absolutely love the game and can't get enough.

If this truly means there will be no more published AP sets I'll be very sad.

I understand there are homebrews and Society scenarios and such to play... but we were really looking forward to what would be next after CotCT.

From what I see here it looks like shipping was supposed to finish up Friday, with a couple bleeding over to Tuesday.

My subscription order, 34947916, still looks like it's in pending status. I blame Jason Bulmahn and those cards that are on this order...

Just wanted to check on it since it's part of the subscription orders.

I'm pretty bummed about the regional language change as well... My main PFS character is an emissary from Tian Xia who is dedicated to language and archaeology. High int, good amount of starting languages... that are no longer an option for him.

I'm going to have to completely redo his language selection at this point and probably change the concept of the character in general. Really disappointing.

Just pointing out... this is still an issue. And sounds like it's going to get worse with the AP Sanctioning TomParker mentioned...

I was having this issue on Chrome for about a week. Worked in IE with no problem (never tested Edge). Clearing the cache in Chrome settings resolved the issue for me as well.

Definitely recommend giving that a shot in the Chrome settings page:
chrome://settings/clearBrowserData

Just another update to state that this is still an issue.

Any word on the Special Edition Advanced Player's Guide being added to the Special Edition Rulebook Subscription? Normal version is part of the normal rulebook subscription, but Special Edition is not marked as being a part of the subscription still.

Sorry about that! It should be showing as a starting option now. :)

Thanks for the quick work on that!

It looks like the standard APG is listed as being part of the standard Rulebook Subscription. Will this one be added to the Special Edition Rulebook Subscription?

This appears to still be an issue.

Hello Mysteran,

Sorry for the confusion with this! USPS has certain weight and volume restrictions on shipping things that aren't considered 'bound, printed matter', like books. Since the card game decks are not bound printed matter, we can't ship more than one pound in one of the small boxes. The decks are each slightly over 1/2 a pound, so putting two in the same box pushes the shipment over the 1 lb limit.

However, shipping your subscription in two boxes was still a little over a dollar cheaper than the next available method, which was Priority Mail. Right now it looks like your default shipment method is set for cheapest, so it should be calculating everything and giving you the cheapest option. However, if you'd prefer to switch your shipping options, you should be able to do so on your Paizo.com account.

Hopefully this was helpful! Please don't hesitate to let me know if there are any further questions or concerns that you may have, and I'll be more than happy to assist you as best I can.

Thanks!
Katina

I didn't realize they had the restriction like that on the small boxes. Thanks very much for the info, explains it well.

Second month in a row this appears to be happening.

I subscribe to the Pathfinder Card Game and the Class Deck subscriptions. Last month they both shipped in separate boxes even though both would easily fit in one.

It looks like this month they are doing the same.

Is there a reason for this? It looks like this is doubling shipping costs on the order.

I have the Broken Token insert. It works perfect for RotR. For S&S, with the ships, the spacing is a bit off.

The designer actually indicated that he has submitted a redesign for it, moving the dice area over to the narrow lane to allow for more space in the wide lanes. It doesn't look like that one is for sale yet though. If it was, it would work better for S&S.

Broken Token also used to have some acrylic location stands that are pretty nice, but they don't seem to be for sale anymore.

And they even hinted once that they were working on creating turntables.

I actually asked them about the Acrylic Location Stands. They said they were having issues with them being too fragile and were working on a redesign. They gave no indication of the timeframe.

Also, I got the this card organizer along with the wooden box from Hobby Lobby based on the suggestion from another thread here and found it great. Plenty of room for all the adventure decks, space for character decks, and some extra dice. Plus the box has a handle and the size of the box means the cards won't come out of their spots if it's held on its side, making it a bit easier to carry at times.

Is anyone else starting their Card sub with the character add-on deck seeing the base set added to their Sep order? I hoping it the normal sub whackery, but want to see if others see this too, or just me.

I'm seeing the same thing. Started the subscription with the base set and character add-on and now everything has been moved to my side-cart, including the base set. On top of that, my associated order, Order 3250238, now only has the signing up for subscription in it, no products, and has been marked as "Complete".
