Skull & Shackles was the first Adventure Path I bought. I'd heard great things about Kingmaker and as a massive pirate fan thought this would be perfect for me.

Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed with it. Part 1 is good and has the potential to lead on to great things but it all goes downhill after that. There are some nice maps that I can use elsewhere but the vast majority will remain unused. Indeed, I'm already thinking about putting all 6 parts up on eBay (and I haven't received my subscriber's copy of Part 6). Suffice to say, I've also cancelled my subscription to future Adventure Paths.

Just for the record I was hoping to find treasure maps, ghost ships, curses and lots of other, original, ideas all wrapped up in a sandbox environment.

Sorry Paizo, you missed the boat on this one :(

Thanks for these, much appreciated. I look forward to any others you may wish to share :)

Hmm, you're right. I'm surprised no one has complained before. I would have complained to me if I had seen this. I'll see what I can do.

Not a complaint, more a request :) I think it's an excellent piece of software and, even with this small problem (and it is, in all honesty, a small problem) I'll still use it :D

Of course, if you can correct it, so much the better :)

One thing I've noticed (and I apologise if this has already been mentioned somewhere in thread). I'm using Combat Manager on my netbook. Because of the screen resolution (1024x600) I have the Windows taskbar set to autohide. However, whenever I maximise the Combat Manager window I can no long access the Windows taskbar. Hovering my mouse at the bottom of the screen doesn't bring it up (as it does with other programs). I can, of course, minimise Combat Manager or use Alt-Tab in order to access other programs but if you are able to work out what is causing that I'd be most grateful.
