Silver Crusade

With the new AP being skewed towards political and role-play themes (I understand there will be things to stab still) I am already thinking of all the skill double ups.

In other games, someone will always have the concept and skill points in place and someone else will suddenly boost a skill and then there is a passive aggressive fight for who gets to use it and who is the "helper". And diplomacy seems to be the #1 skill I see happen as everyone (rightfully) wants to participate in the talking, even if they are also the main killy person.

So, with this one, I have a feeling most if not all players will want social skills (we will use Background skills from PF Unchained) and so to give everyone a fair chance, I was thinking of aligning the main three social skills (Dip, SM & Bluff) to a specialty. Each player chooses one and gets a small bonus when interacting within that specialty and a small penalty when not. That way, the person with the huge Chr who might be a noble like character isn't just swanning into the docks and getting the same results as the thief who has friends and street cred and vice versa. So here is my first mock-up, any insight or advice would be appreciated.

Etiquette: nobles, knights, government and anything do do with upper society

Street Cred: gangs, thieves, beggars, wharfies

Community: shop-keepers, locals, children, good aligned churches / followers

Dilettante: artists, singers, play-wrights, bards and philosophers

I would keep the factions separate as I guess the AP will have more involved rules for those.

* An additional idea to make it a little more distinct is maybe you start at 1 step worse with a non-specialised faction. That way, the guy with smaller diplomacy still seems like the best choice even with penalty.

Hi Paizo CS People,

I am really confused about what happened to my order.

I had purchased some items a few days ago and received my immediate receipt of sale and there was no issues. The items would be shipped in 2 packages, everything in stock and due to ship within a few days.

Now I get my subscription order, it has been bundled with one package, and the second now has no delivery time as 1 book is apparently sold out between my sale and shipping.

The original bill was $129.92 (which I believe was charged immediately) but now the new one arriving today is $151.46. Am I going to be double charged and is there now anyway of knowing when my original second package is going to be fulfilled?

Good Morning,

I would like to request that my ongoing Pathfinder Roleplaying Subscription is cancelled effective immediately.

There is a pending order (3636744) that has Occult Adventures that was covered by this subscription. Can this please be removed?

I will keep my Adventure Path Subscription and the two books in Order 3636744 are fine to be charged as normal.

Silver Crusade

Can I please have the sidecart I added to the above order removed please?

The subscriptions had a shipping total of $21 and the sidecart items had a shipping total of $26 but combining them has made shipping $77???

So please remove the non-subscription items and I will just purchase them separately.

I have player building an Arcanist with the School Savant archetype and he has chosen Void as his school which is fine.

Now, Void says that 1 opposition must be chosen from the other elemental sub-schools but School Savant explicitly says that 2 schools must be chosen as opposition, it does not allow variations.

Herolab is asking for 2 school oppositions and that is what I have quoted to the player but he then inquires if that there is an exception to the Void school rule, he should be able to choose any opposition schools, not just elemental.

So, which rule between Void and School Savant takes priority?

The 1st chapter mentions The Witchwar Legacy set in motion the events within Reign of Winter.

I am about to start the Adventure Path and I am wondering whether it is worth doing the module as a one-shot with pre-mades to give the players some context for what is happening as the adventure advances.

Is this a reasonable idea or will it give too many clues away for what would be coming in the campaign?

Silver Crusade

Can I please have the above order cancelled please?

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi,

I have added the Bestiary Box of cut-out miniatures to my subscription for August but it seems to have added USPS Priority Mail to my order instead of the usual Standard Post. Can this please be changed back because the cost difference is significant.

I would have waited for the pending email but I may be away at that point.

In my Kingmaker campaign my players as rulers created their own independent factions. They have enjoyed naming, detailing and writing up each faction but I am wanting to add more.

Are they any good guides, books or blogs on how to have effectively a faction character sheet? As it levels up, the players can add perks to it and I can incorporate it into the campaign. I have looked at the caravan rules for Jade Regent and something similar but more streamlined would be good.

The end goal is that they can direct their organisations towards set missions/quests one per set time period and then make a roll based on the organisation's stats to see if it succeeds. They then get a bonus for the Kingdom.

Some of the idea is also inspired by Assassin's Creed Brotherhood where you sent your crew on missions for rewards. I don't want to over complicate it, just something interesting for the players to invest in.

I am looking for 2-3 players for a weeknight game at my house to play through the Jade Regent Pathfinder Adventure Path.

My wife will be a player and we are both in our 30s and are looking for similar aged people to join us (20s 40s+ ok).

I have not set a night yet as it will depend on when people are available to play. However, it cannot be a Thursday night as I run a Shadowrun campaign then. The hours would around 6:30-7:00 start to a 10pm finish.

Please send me a PM if you are interested.

PS: New players are more than welcome as are couples.

I am currently running a group game of Kingmaker and seriously considering a second group game of Jade Regent. But I would like to run a game just for my wife but not sure which of the APs would be the easiest or best for that.

She is a gamer (not trying to convert) and plays in my Kingmaker and she quite enjoys role-playing aspects as well as the combat which is why I want a very personalized game to run for her.

I was thinking of Carrion Crown and allowing her to be a Gestalt (someting I have never used before) with a NPC. Is this doable ot are there better suited APs?

As a side note, has anyone actually run a single player AP? How did it go?

Hi,

I have a couple of hundred Dragon Magazines and a long time ago I gave a player a sword called "Pax" which I think I took from a Dragon Magazine.

We are re-doing the character and we have no idea where to look or what it does. I have searched in vain and am unsure if it was even 2nd or 3rd edition stats. Please Help if you know where it is.

Thanks.
