This is exciting and I can't wait for more details!

So it should show up when you're looking at your cart. Under 'Price Each' the normal price will be listed and crossed out, with the discounted price listed in red underneath it, as well as under 'Total Price'.

First thing I would try is to clear your cache and cookies. Paizo.com has notorious issues with those, and most of the time if the website isn't working correctly, clearing those will fix it. If that doesn't fix it, I would email customer service and ask them to take a look at it.

Seriously though, thanks for pointing this out. It kind of sucks that I need to dig through the deck and figure out which are duplicates, but it's nice to know I'll still functionally have the product I was hoping for. Here's hoping that my new players' first starship combat goes smoothly!

Okay, hopefully I can save you some time here. Start with all of the odd-numbered cards from 19 - 95. That'll give you all the correct cards for everyone but the gunner (which will also repeat on cards 81 and 83). If you take cards 94 and 96 for the gunner (Deploy Drone and Lay Mines), replace those two with the magic officer cards 50 and 52 (Mystic Haze and Psychic Currents), and then replace those with the engineer cards 38 and 40 (Overpower and Quick Fix), you should then have a full deck.

The final set of gunner cards should be 35, 81, 83, 94, and 96.
Engineer will be 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 38, and 40.
Magic Officer will be 85, 87, 89, 91, 50, and 52.
All other roles will be their odd numbered cards, which should be in order.

I hope that makes sense and helps!

I guess if you buy two sets, you can sleeve them to block the reverse side and create a "proper" set of cards, but then you're dropping $50 and ending up with a bunch of duplicates for things that may not be used terribly often.

That's entirely unnecessary. The backs of all of the crew action cards are duplicates of the fronts. For instance, card 19 is the captain's Demand action, which is the same as card 54 on the back of the science officer's Balance action. The only exception to this is the gunner's Lay Mines, Deploy Drone, and Firing Arcs, where Firing Arcs is only printed on the "front" of the cards, and Lay Mines and Deploy Drone only have one copy each. That said, they're printed in such a way you can still have a full set of actions for every roll with one copy of the deck.

Go to your 'Account Settings' page, look for the 'My Subscriptions' link, then scroll down that page to the section where it says 'Payment Method for Subscriptions'. There should be a button there that says 'Select Another Payment Method'. After clicking on it, you should be able to select from all payment methods on your account, or add a new one.

Best news to come from the 1.1 leak.

Has there ever been an update on what's going on with Pawns?

According to Aaron over in the Pawn Subscription thread, they're "making tech arrangements" and "There have been unexpected issues that slowed the announcement."

My supposition is that they are updating how subs work on the website, which hopefully means they're adding - or trying to add - end user management. From the sounds of it, once they get that sorted, the blog post announcing sub changes should go live.

Awesome! Just in time to add it to my sidecart for my December subscriptions :)

Y'all are fantastic, and easily some of the best CS I've ever had to interact with. I cannot overstate how much I appreciate all your hard work, especially in the past year and a half.

Customer Service is the under dog and super heroes of most organizations. You and your team are fantastic, quick and thorough whenever I have had an issue and it is appreciated.

Can easily say that because of how well your guys handle issues is a large part of what makes me a loyal customer. Knowing that if I have an issue it will be taken seriously by an organization is huge for my repeat business.

When it comes to international shipping right now it is a crap show. Here's hoping you guys get a big dose of understanding when it comes to product delays due to shipping issues. You won't get much gripe from me on that front and at this point in the pandemic I think it is pretty clear that every industry has been hit by resource and shipping issues on some level.

I cannot put this better myself, so I'll just say that my sentiments are the exact same.

Would folks like to see the stats for Misree's company and their ship as NPCs?

Yes, please!

I'm very jealous of you people at the front of the shipping line :P

Thank you so much! I just got the new email and it looks perfect.

I saw in the June Shipping thread that I should make a post about this - my Paizocon Hero Point Token did not get added to my subscription order from my sidecart. Thanks!

Thats strange the July 7th street date is gone, GULP, did this get delayed??

Tom

Definitely not delayed. They started subscription authorizations for June's products yesterday, so it's effectively out of preorder status.

While this is certainly how I'd approach it were I to GM (something that TERRIFIES me!) I'm concerned that if I were to ask a potential GM to do this on my behalf, questions would come up like "How do you know you're going to a monastery of Hylax in Book 4?" and come to the natural conclusion that I was metagaming and ask me to change my concept to not depend on reading ahead in the AP.

That certainly can be a valid concern, but I would encourage you to talk to the GM anyway.

*grabs soapbox* RPGs are storytelling games, and communication is key for the best possible storytelling. As long as a character concept doesn't do something to derail the AP, most GMs I know (myself included), can and would cry tears of joy to have a player that invested in the game and their character. Especially since your concept is tying directly into the AP itself! GMs usually love that stuff! *quietly puts soapbox away*

Besides, the information that you're going to "a secret monastery dedicated to the insect goddess Hylax" is literally in the product description, and does not require you to read through the AP to know.

Happy Authorization Day everyone!

Refreshing the thread to see the first mention of something hitting someone's bank <3

shouldn't happen until at least monday.

Do you have a source for that? Because while not everyone's account is hit right away, there's almost always a few that hit day of.

According to first post in the thread, begin shipping estimate is Monday. Authorizations are expected to start today, but that's not shipment!

While this is true, I can say from my own experience that a pending charge will show up on my bank account well before my shipment is sent.

Sale?! I didn't know about a sale!

It's all good, I'm just happy to be a customer.

Yeah, there was a 20% off sale, with a couple of items getting a deeper discount. It did not stack with the Advantage discount though, so if you have that (which it looks like you probably do), you didn't miss too much.

How did I not notice that??

Wait, is this a romantic picnic? It's on a cliff with a panorama view, I think there's a wine glass behind the title pane-

ARE THEY DATING!?!?

Knowing those two, more like "planning a heist"

That is a fair and valid point.

Sounds like it will be available at 6PM PST, when the stream goes live.

I'm only two and a half episodes in, but this is turning out to be a terrific podcast. The characters are very well thought out, and the players seem to genuinely be having a blast.

About a year and a half ago, they moved their clothing over to Amazon, for the most part.

Looks like Humble just walked this back and the sliders (and the ability to give however much you want to the charity) have returned.

Oh awesome! I didn't catch that it was going to be available for sale. I just assumed that was a live-play only like Starfinder X.T.R.E.M.! was.

Which one is that one and have they said when we can order it? The first one I'm seeing in the store is Junker's Delight and that's scheduled for July. Also, where did they announce it, because I totally missed it.

Am I just missing something, or is there nothing at all slated for May and November? I could swear I read a blog post saying they had something planned for May, but I haven't seen anything else about it. As for November, I can see Locus-1 slated for September, Horizons 3 for October, and then Horizons 4 in December, but nothing for November.

Have I missed an announcement somewhere?

We can, in fact, take gnolls, grippli, kitsune, kobolds, & samsaran off The List. We got 'em via the Alien Character Deck & they've stated that there are no plans to reprint them for an AA in the foreseeable future.

That's unfortunate. I was still hoping to get them in an AA with more/different racial options. Or at least a full race entry, since the cards only have the hard stats and a tiny descriptive blurb.

Yeah I too never realised that they only had three legs. It’s a conspiracy I tell ya!

No, see, that was two APs ago.

Unless...

Holy crow, these look amazing! These previews with production minis have pushed me from 'oh man, if only I had the money' into 'what do I give up so I can get these'.

I just got my Starship cards, and they are beautiful.

I want more Starfinder. Bigger books, more releases, longer adventures. I'll be stoked with whatever Paizo gives us, I just want *more*.

But specifically, kobolds in space. I *really* want those.

And more magic. We're getting Tech Revolution, and that ticks one of my boxes, but I would also like more magic in my sci-fantasy game.

I want AA5 to be the Gargantuan/Colossal/Kaiju AA. It will release after Tech Revolution, and I just want to do Pacific Rim: the Starfinder Adventure.

Also, I'd love to see some (not a lot, but some) classic PF monsters show up. Like kobolds. (I really just want kobolds in space, stop looking at me like that)

They'll be released in the Tech Revolution hardback that is coming out next summer, iirc.

Things that I find helpful for starship combat are (in no particular order):

1) Hiring NPCs to fill out the crew. This is super cheap to do, and lets you utilize all positions and use all the guns. I have played with a lot of people that don't do this and it makes starship combat drag on forever because you're not doing enough on your turns.

2) Creating cheat sheets for each roll. This is extremely useful. Starship combat is an entirely different combat system from what you use normally, and no one is ever familiar with it. This leads to everyone forgetting what exactly they can do, and so everyone feels like they only have one option for combat, which is not true at all. The official starship combat cards are releasing in a couple of weeks, so there will be official cheat sheets to get.

3) Using the additional rolls and abilities listed in the COM and SOM. The Magic Officer and the Chief Mate are especially useful to use since they broaden the range of useful skills, but they also have unique abilities that are a great addition. SOM offers crit effects for all combat abilities, which is VERY nice, as well as alternate types of starship combat, such as dog fights and fleet combat.

I personally find starship combat engaging and fun when you use all of the rules, but when you only limit yourselves to using one ability each in a half crewed ship, it does kind of suck.

I love getting fiction that focuses on alien perspectives. It's so much fun! And this story is fantastic - the disorientation, the flood of memories, the nods to previous adventures and the worry of devastation. Brilliantly done!

This is fantastic and I'm going to steal it. Thanks for sharing it!

My feed is now showing posts up to July 14th, but nothing past that. It's also no longer showing as a broken feed.

Once again having troubles with the Blog's RSS Feed. It's showing as 'unreachable' and the last post listed in it is June 19th's Happy Juneteenth! post.

Thank you so much! You all are awesome!

Seems to be working now.

As title. I've tried a few different readers, but none of them can read the RSS Feed past the 'PACG Online Play in Real Time' post from the 8th, and a couple list the feed as 'unreachable' or as a dead feed.

I do not appear to have ever received the April SFS scenarios (2-21 and 2-22) from my Advantage Free Subscription.

Just got an email back about this - the issue is resolved, and y'all are awesome!

I sent an email about this back on March 25th, and according to the update thread, emails through March 29th have been addressed, but I haven't heard anything, and the problem is still occurring.

I've called in about this before, around March 6th and the week before that. The issue is that even though I have all of the Starfinder subscriptions, and though my initial order had it, my account doesn't seem to show that I have the Paizo Advantage discount. Or free Society subscription, for that matter. On both item pages and in my cart, only the normal price is shown, and no discount is listed. PDFs are showing the Spring Social discount, but physical products are showing nothing. Even on my subscription page, everything is showing normal MSRP, whereas March's shipment did show the Advantage discount prices. I also don't see anywhere on my subscription page where to choose the complimentary Society subscription.

The last time I called in, the person I talked to told me that Tech Support had a ticket for the problem, and that from what they could see, what was going on was that my account had the Advantage listed on it, but that my cart couldn't see it (if I remember correctly).

A related issue (I think) has shown up that my Starfinder Society subscription isn't doing anything. On my subscription page before March 25th I saw that my next shipment consisted of March's scenarios, but after the 25th it just showed April's, with the previous shipment being February's. To my knowledge, no order was generated at all, and the scenarios aren't in my downloads. I wasn't charged for them and never saw a pending charge, but then, with Paizo Advantage, I wasn't really expecting to.

I would really appreciate any kind of an update, even if there isn't any resolution yet, just so I know I'm not shouting into the void.

Thanks! You guys are awesome!

Method 3: Boons for given years/adventure paths. ie, Year of Scoured Stars has a chronicle for x race, or if you play through x adventure path, you can get a boon for x race.

I also like Farrindor's suggestion of races that can be purchased with Fame.
