First and foremost I am a backer and fan and in no way officially affiliated with the game in any official capacity. I however am taking initiative to spread the word. At this moment the project is 69% funded and it can be found here

It is a first edition AP but it is in the 2E remastered ruleset. We have been asking for a 2E ruleset video game for a while now and we have this fully licensed project from designers with a lot of experience. I have no doubts they will make something amazing with their portfolio as it stands and would love it if everyone went and checked out the project. I also made a place for us to watch and organise efforts to get the word out and be fully active as a community through launch and beyond on reddit r/DragonsDemandWatchers if you would like to be a part of this fan community I hope to build. Thank you for reading my post and next round's on me in Absalom.

For what it's worth, the smallest unit of black powder is classified as being either a "dose or round." A dose is specifically not ammunition, so the obvious correction in Munitions Crafter would be to change "black powder cartridges or black powder doses" to "black powder cartridges or black powder rounds." As for what a black powder cartridge is, I have no idea.

A cartridge is probably the wrong term and is what should be changed to round.

So "If you use a batch of infused reagents to create basic level-0 ammunition such as black powder cartridges rounds or black powder doses, you produce 10 rounds of ammunition."

Also supported by the fact that this very line says that you are creating ammunition.

And the idea that this sentence isn't trying to tell you what you can create, just how much of it you create when creating Black Powder Dose or Round items.

Don't blindly use Foundry VTT or Pathbuilder2e as official sources for rulings. They both do a very good job of properly representing the rules, but they aren't (and can't be) perfect.

I don't go by their rulings, it's something I have debated with my GM and the foundry guys. Unfortunately that line which I have pointed out is ignored and I am told the book clearly does not consider the black powder round as ammo.This is why I wat to have an official source as the book contradicts itself.


So the problem is this. At level 1 you don't get an officially tagged ammunition AoN link for reference https://2e.aonprd.com/Equipment.aspx?ID=1190 and the line "or it can be packaged with a metal bullet or pellet to be used as ammunition" within the description suggests it can be used as ammo as it can be pre-packaged with the bullet or pellet. AoN link for reference https://2e.aonprd.com/Feats.aspx?ID=3158 which states the following "If you use a batch of infused reagents to create basic level-0 ammunition such as black powder cartridges or black powder doses, you produce 10 rounds of ammunition." says that it counts a black powder round as ammunition which is already contradictory. in another part of GnG it states black powder is needed to make ammunition but is itself not ammunition which my GM has interpreted as meaning you spend 4 days crafting the powder and then 4 more days crafting the ammunition which comes in batches of 5 meaning 8 days of crafting to make 5 bullets. This is also how foundry classifies a black powder round as not ammo. Because it is contradictory I was wondering if there is an official paizo source clarifying it to point to in this debate. as it stands the level 1 munitions crafter feat has no possible application as anything other than bombs and there is no way to create level 0 ammunition for it in the interpretation both my GM and foundry have made as there is no level 0 alchemical ammunition in game currently.


Was thinking of making one of these for PFS play but as far as I can tell there is no way to use this dedication with the Eldritch Trickster dedication and get sneak attack from weapons without losing access to your druid powers. every agile/finess weapon without metal in it is locked behind an uncommon tag thus no access to it thus giving only spell sneak attack access which has to wait til level 2. This has to be an oversight of some kind right? is there an errata somewhere on this?

Already the response here on just the forums has been worlds more than I got elsewhere so I expect it will be better.


Also I did join the discord so hopefully it will be better here. There was communication with this GM where before he replaced me he was aware I was going to need the help.

It wasn't showing up to game session not prepared, I was invited Saturday the game was this coming Friday. We scheduled to go over making my character yesterday (Sunday) afternoon and when I got there he informed me he had replaced em with someone who had a character ready to go. I already had a concept I posted in my application. A gnome rogue who was an undercover operative for the law. Would have a background in law enforcement. That with it's stat boost and skills/lore. I wasn't going in blind I just need help making sure I cover everything because I can easily read a step and not realize it at all. I am good at creating story backgrounds and concepts.


Game time is also next Friday


Yes I do put that in my posts (usually) I occasionally forget to.


Hi, I am a visually impaired player of Palladium games for over a decade I wanted to try PF2 with the changes it made (changes for a lot of things I hated about D&D that PF2 was now doing differently). I play on roll20 and have been trying to get into one of the new player games people keep posting there. A lot of people posting games asking for new players end up taking experienced players over new players. Today I was informed by the GM of a "Fall of the Plaguestone tutorial" exact game name that he was kicking me out because I didn't have my character pre-rolled and ready and someone who knows the game had one ready to go so I am out and the experienced player takes my spot in the tutorial. This is common, getting kicked from newbie games for experienced players or posting my app and watching people talking about their months of experience getting invited to games specifically asking for new players over the new players. I compare this to the palladium community on R20 we will not even mark the game as new player friendly and we bend over backwards trying to help them. is this a common problem throughout this community or is it a roll20 thing.
I do need something like R20 because play by text games are too hard to keep up on with my vision issues. These same issues make it hard for me to learn by reading, it takes so much concentration reading that I don't absorb it. IF it is a R20 problem is there another free VTT where I can find a better experience?
