I want to run an AP online since our group is in lockdown. 95% can be "theatre of the mind", but sometimes you just need a battle map. The .pdf have the maps already. What's the best option if I want to throw up a map to share and let people move their counters around? I don't need the full Roll20 experience, just the occasional map.

Fog of war and line if site are bonus, but not necessary. Ease of use is more important.


Under the event "notable NPC visits"... This is our groups first Pathfinder Adventure. Any suggestions for notable NPCs that they will look back on fondly later? Sort of the Pathfinder equivalent of Elminster, Tasslehoff, Tyrion Lannister, etc?


After a slow summer, my group finally got to the Kingdom Building part. I know this has probably been asked already, but there are tons of posts to sort through so I'll ask again.

On the Economy checks, you are rolling against the Kingdom Command DC. The rules state that you gain 1 BP for every 5 points you rolled if you succeed. Is this 1/5 total or 1/5 of what you beat the roll by?

For example, a new Kindom with Command DC of 21, if the Treasurer rolls a modified 26, does the Kingdom get 1 BP or 5? Or 6? 1/5 of the total roll seems kind of all-or-nothing, especially when the Kingdom starts to grow to 50, 100, or even 200 hexes.

Also, just for laughs... I made Bekken crazier than usual and gave him some randomly occurring, not-in-the-books, uncontrollable powers when his crazy manifests. The PCs went and made him Magister. I house-ruled that his relevant stat is D20 +5 for the month (-3 to +6), with a 1 meaning that he was too insane or just plain vanished for the month and the post was effectively vacant.


I just started Pathfinder and checked the boards for an FAQ on Dazzling Display. I think it has been settled that the normal demoralize action targets one person, while DD targets everyone.

Many threads include the sentence "You can substitute an
attack roll in place of your Intimidate check if your attack
bonus is higher." at the end of the feat description. This does not appear in my hard copy. Was this added as a FAQ, or dropped after play testing, or what? Anyone know what gives?

LOVE Pathfinder so far, BTW.
