So great to finally get something from the PFMMO KS to share with my wife and use in my 2 PnP PF games - one is Epic level FR, the other is 1st lvl Earth in 505 AD, the dawning on magic.

I recently found the Sleeves of Many Garments. They cost the same as a Royal outfit (minus the jewelry), and can mimic any non-magical garment, including the Royal outfit, with the added benefit that they can be donned without assistance.

Bag of Holding and Handy Haversack are popular low- to mid-level items. They can even be layered one inside another; just be careful not to let the outermost bag get destroyed.

The Ring of Sustenance is one of those items that can be great, but I never seem to take it when building mid-level characters because there are always other items that take precedence. It's great for a wizard with crafting feats; just prepare one use per day of Extended Rope Trick, and work inside while the party camps. (In a caster-heavy party, camping overnight could easily involve three watch shifts of 4 hours each.)

OMG! Handy Haversack has been banned from my games since a couple of weeks after we started a mid-level campaign I discovered 8 out of 9 players had chosen one for their build! I said NOT so common as indicated! What to do about something EVERYBODY wants?!

...and Wizards isn't our parent company. We're 100% separate entities.

I guess I misunderstood all the press releases stating that Paizo was "spun off" of WotC's publishing department 2 years ago. That DOES NOT sound like Paizo is 100% seperate, without any corporate connection, but more like Paizo is trying to distance themselves from the decision to kill Dragon and Dungeon magazines.

I take it from your neglecting to answer the only questions I asked (about download-able PDF samples, and if the monster levels in this Pathfinder are aimed at the low level characters) means you DON'T offer any way to check your product out before buying. I shall not buy a "pig in a poke", we're not that naive out here!

My players don't want to throw away their 15th level characters, brought up thru AD&D ver 1 and 2, d20 D&D 3.0 and 3.5, just to play low level characters.

So these first few $19.95 issues WON'T contain adventure paths suitable for higher level characters, making the adventure HALF of limited use to most DMs. The remaing stuff that is only briefly referred to as a few monsters (low level?) and details on your new adventuring world (again, of dubious value to most DMs) doesn't SOUND like I'm going to get my money's worth. AND if I don't buy these low-level issues, I'll be lost if I buy later issues because IT'S ALL ONE SINGLE ADVENTURE!

When will download-able PDF samples of this new product be available?

I don't think this was as good a decision as Paizo and their parent company Wizards of the Coast think it is ...
