I thinking about started the subscription for pathfinder 2e but it looks like its in the middle of the current path. Is there anyway to start the subscription from the start of Age of Ashes (1 OF 6) Hellknight Hill?
No. Subscriptions aren't retrospective - the only way to get the benefits is to be subscribed when an issue hits. It remains "live" until the next subscription goes out (so you can start with AP #147 at the moment, but in the next few days they'll spawn orders for AP #148 and then that will be the earliest a new sub can commence).
Just wanted to make sure I have this right, because I started my subscription this month with Age of Ashes #3. The benefits for subscribing have changed, and therefore I will not receive 30% off cover price, correct?
I read about Paizo Advantage, but I definitely don't have the means to subscribe to 4 different lines.
Hello Nixie,
That is correct. During PF1 Adventure Path subscribers got the Paizo Advantage discount. We did grandfather that for folks who were already subscribed, but otherwise you only get the discount if you have 4 or more qualifying subscriptions.

Just checking, cos' your release order is all screwy at the moment; if I restart subscription with Quest for the Frozen Fame (Jan), am I also going to get book 6 of Strength of Thousands (which I don't want), when/if it drop mid-Feb? Thanks. :)

Is there a way to get PAthfinder 1st Edition products in a subscription?
What are the shipping costs looking like to the UK now?
I want the hard copy as my husband and I like to play at home, but mostly we play play by post online with groups, so would like the pdf too.
Obviously the cheaptest way should be to buy the hard copy and the pdf, however when I subscribed previously, the shipping often ended up being more expensive than just buying the hard copy on amazon and the pdf on here.....
TLDR: Please can I have an update on UK shipping costs.

You can generate this yourself and know it is specifically to your location and exactly the order you will place:
Put the latest available item(s) in your sidecart, then click checkout and go to the second step - that will show you the various shipping options available and the cost of each.
After that you can head back to step one, return to your cart and empty it.
The advantage of this method is you can play with volumes, bundles of differing items in a piecemeal way that general advice can never replicate.
Long story short though - subscribing isnt a cheap option for international customers. If youre concerned with costs, the strategy you allude to is best - buy the pdf here and the hardcopy from an online retailer with cheaper shipping.
I used to be an AP subscriber back in the PF1 days. It seems things have changed a bit. APs are now 3 books as opposed to 6? Do they still cover levels 1-20?
Ok, I see now that some are 6 part and some are 3. Is there somewhere that describes or explains the difference?

6 parters are 1-20, 3 parters are either 1-10 or 11-20; the shorter APs apparently sell much better than the longer ones, so expect to see more of them going forward.
Age of Ashes, Extinction Curse, Agents of Edgewatch, Strength of Thousands, and Blood Lords are all 1-20s.
Abomination Vaults, Quest for the Frozen Flame, Outlaws of Alkenstar, Gatewalkers, and the upcoming Sky King’s Tomb are all 1-10s.
Fists of the Ruby Phoenix and the upcoming Stolen Fate are 11-20s.

Thanks, that's helpful. Any there any of the 3 parters that go well with others as sequels / prequels?
They’re all pretty distinct, with the assumption that you’d make a new character for any of the 11-20s, but you can make it work. FotRP is a fighting tournament for heroes on the far side of the world, so if they seek glory after their 1-10 adventures, it’s certainly an option. Stolen Fate seems like a pretty classic adventure (find the magic relics, stop the evil schemes!) that lots of heroes could get swept up into.

If you ask customer support nicely they may be able to fit you in.
Just getting turned on to Pathfinder. I am interested in the subscription but am a little unclear.
1. I understand all products are shipped as they release. Thats the only time you pay correct?
2. Can I start with the core rule set and then go through the core books 1 a month or some such?

Hi Khyron and welcome!
1) Correct. There isn't a monthly fee or anything of the such. You'll get an email from Paizo when the shipment has been authorized, and then a follow up email once it has actually shipped. You'll be charged on that 2nd email when the product has shipped.
2) Unfortunately no. Nothing stops you from just buying a book a month, but the subscription covers the most recent book, and then the upcoming books in that category.
Worth pointing out that this subscription is for the monthly adventure paths. You mentioned Core Books. If your looking for the Core Rulebook subscription, you can find that HERE
All subscriptions can be found HERE
Think of it like a magazine subscription (which is what it started as). When you subscribe you get the current issue, plus future issues each month. A free PDF is also included with the subscription. Though many people would like one, there is currently no PDF-only subscription.

There are the PFS and SFS subscriptions, but they probably wouldn't exist if many people were not getting them as a free benefit from having enough other subscriptions.
