Really looking forward to the print copies. I have been more than pleased with the core Southlands book, and what I have seen from my flip through of the Southland Bestiary. Great Job!

Mine came in yesterday while I was out. (Good job shipping by the way. The book was in great condition.) If I only had to say one thing, it would be: This... Book... Is... AWESOME! <- (Think of John Williams "Dual of the Fates" when reading this) A gem mine for casters. Lots of options. An Incredible amount of spells. Great Artwork. I've seen many good spells right off the bat I would find useful as a Player and as GM.
I would eagerly GM a game for Ian McKellan, Morgan Freeman, Christopher Lee, and Betty White is all I'm sayin'. That would be one hell of a group! On subject, if 45 is to old to play, then my entire group would be in trouble. I'm the youngest at 38 and the oldest is mid 50's. In fact one of the home built campaign worlds I've gotten to play in is only two years younger than me. We are still a rather active group.
Congratulations to the Kobold Press team on a very successful Kickstarter project! (... and in a distant less busy future, if you decide to kickstart the World Serpent AP, I for one would be happy to be a backer!)
Here's to hoping the ap makes!
I Doubt the AP will make. A shame too cause I would love to see it make as well.. I think it's just too many people require in the time left.
An enjoyable read. Awesome work! This may be my favorite race guide to date.
Joined up Tuesday because I can always use more spells.
No doubt on this suggestion. ;)
Thanks for the update!
For My Iphone I use (and on the I-Pad but it is not a IPad native app): I find it is quick to quickly set up dice, and you have several panels of dice you can have set up for specific tasks.
But seriously, what about considering the option for the first Golarion map?I'd rather that product be a globe. That would absolutely rock!
++ HERO Our group has played a LOT of Hero system. Every bit as versitle a GURPS if you want to build it. Currently in two great Pulp Hero games and a very EPIC Fantasy Hero game. ++ Rathendar for remembering Tales From the Floating Vagabond. I loved the concept of this game.
My biggest issues with MERP and ICE I think were why many played it. The detailed critical system. In Playing one of the front line fighters in our MERP campaign, It was a very rare thing for me to get knocked out by concussion hits. Golden Criticals 95% of the time. It did lead to my Dwarf being refered to as 'My Favorite Terrain Feature'. Not to Knock MERP too much, what great background information. Wonderful stuff.
Ars Magica by Lion Rampant/White Wolf, Undwerworld by Mayfair Games, Swordbearer by Fantasy Games Unlimited. Ars Magica certainly had one of the neatest magic systems of it's time. If you weren't a wizard though...
+1 I loved TMNT. May have been my favorite palladium book!
Love this app. I've been using it for quite some time. I have purchased all of the content and look forward to the ability to search only a subset of data.
Well it is 8am so going to bed. So no more questions till I wake up. Well good morning to you, and may you have a fitfull day of rest!
What the holy he-... this thread is supposed to be dead! Who has been animating corpses best left in the ground? Equine Corpses at that!
I'm afraid I'm in the errors suck and we all make errors department. Sure it would be nice if everything came out right the first time, but it almost never happens. I'm just happy that pathfinder is a fun game to play and has a great campaign setting attached. I can forgive a few niggles here and there.. and I applaud the effort they put into publishing it.
In the above example if the Druid was knocked out i'd think he would continue to fly in the same vector and velocity as he had when he was last concious. If he was hovering he would maintain that position unless there was a large change in environment such as wind.. He would have no ability to dodge if somthing interceded his path. As far as others trying to hit him I'd treat it as if he didn't have the fly skill. The spell would terminate normally. The reason is that the fly is a spell interpreting the participants desire to move.
If the Mage went unconcious the fly spell would act as normal until the duration was completed.
That sounds like Awesome stuff! Ustalav seems like a great place to set it too.
A little of that element DID stay in PF3, but for an RPG, a little goes a long way when it comes to those topics. I thought the situation was handled well in PF3, any worse and I think the Womenfolk in our gaming group may have made a pass at the rest of the adventure path. I might have been able to Hang with a bit more, but I don't think it would have made the scene any better for it.

But WHY? Ok, a Heal or maybe two, maybe I can see that, but with the Spontaneous Casting class feature they shouldn't take a single 'CURE' spell. I thought this was one of the greatest ideas ever because it fixes the clerics only take band aid spells. Also Changeling helps a lot too, though it takes a feat and maybe two to make this perfect.
Golarian, Ptolis, and we just converted a legacy home brew world from 3.5e. (This is not the first whole world conversion, but when moving from AD&D/2e/Custom to 3.0/3.5e, the GM decided it best to set the campaigns in a earlier time period where magic was not so scarce. Pathfinder still fit well for the conversion.)
Prove me wrong!>> Facepalm << ... and suddenly I feel I have a better understanding of the Goblin's fear and I think I should run away myself. Such horrifying creatures! I now understand why they were in the Original Fiend Folio!
Prove me wrong!>> Facepalm << Well, your certainly not wrong... and as tentacled creatures go... ...It's just ... It's just... ... they are aberrations... and yet...I guess you could just say I'm somewhat Flumph-ixed..
>> Facepalm <<
How appropriate.. Our GM Flumphed us a couple of weeks ago.
Another Note: Panicked Flumph = "What a wonderful smell you've discovered!"
I think it's much more plausible when you look at it from the perspective that sometimes evil characters do good things.. not because that was there intention.. but because the side benefit was beneficial for somebody else. Some of the most evil people in history got where they were because they helped a not necessarily evil society out. I myself still enjoy more heroic campaigns, but I do think it's interesting at times to find out that some good deeds were not always good for everybody.
No healing in combat? Oh Boy, I'd forever be in trouble. I would not still be alive (or rather my character) in our Rise of the Rune Lords campaign if it wasn't for the cleric patching me up. No joke. I'm currently playing a Sorcerer / Dragon Disciple named Djordi who would have been dead many times over if it wasn't for combat healing. He has an incredible amount of hit points.. but in the big fights he always gets mixed up in parts of the fights he shouldn't.. Why? Djordi has a tendency in fights to loose his cool. He's fairly rational when the fight starts but inevitably some bad guy casts a fire spell on him (he can't stand being burned) or he spots a worshiper of Lil'Meshy-tu, or he sees one of his friends get into serious trouble... and common sense and tactics go out the window and he leaps into the thick of it claws out and spells-a-blazing. It's just how he is. It's mechanically inefficient (and getting worse as the game goes forward), but it's a lot of fun to play. Without a healer it would be impossible to play out character flaws like his because he would be dead early in the fight. Why do the other characters (and thier players) put up with it? Because when not in combat Djordi brings a lot of drive and purpose into the group. He presses the story forward and his Antics bring a lot of flavor to the game. So I think Healing in combat is a wonderful thing. I suppose in the end it comes down to what your group is looking for. As many posts above state, yes, the framework involves a system and mechanics, but it's there so the players (and Game Master) can have fun. I leave mechanics efficiency for tournament play and go for fast and loose role-play for a fun game on a weekend.
