Well I wrote three Kami for the bestiary section and they are native outsiders that are very close to fey :)
I will be doing a video blog about them when we are closer to a release date.
Well got my email notice today that it would be shipping next week.I received my email last night so lets hope I am near the top of list for first shipments to be sent out. D_M your luck seems to have been consistent lately in terms of shipments.
I got my notice last night, as well. Now the AP can really begin to delve into more of the Tian Xian cultures of Golarion. I have really been looking forward to these last three issues of the Jade Regent AP; especially the last one, but for reasons I can't go into.
What oni receive stat blocks in the bestiary of this issue of Jade Regent?
Hopefully the Oni based on Humans(Kuwa).
I know we will get info on the Kami.

Yeah well i am fairly sure I am in the largest group of subscribers the superscripers which means that group is done first. Though occasionally I end up near the end, normally that's when i order extra stuff though.
Either way I am hope early next week to get the PDF's.
I thought that is supposed to be the final cover?
I has a book. Flipping through!
Lucky you Ice Titan, mine will more then likely ship tuesday and get here next week.

My copy of the last module hasn't arrived yet. But I'm not panicking yet, I had it take a little over three weeks one time for the module to ship over the ocean.
Art's good. Maps are huge. I was going to make a tongue-in-cheek joke about 80 square long maps.
It actually contains one that is 100.
Great looking maps, though. I alternate between loving Jared Blando for maps like this and hating him when he draws off-geometry with maps like Brinewall Castle.
Got it! Love it! Even better, I do believe I have successfully reverse-engineered the Kitsune Character Race from one of the NPCs.
The Ja Noi is the only oni entry in this issue's bestiary. The other entries are all kami.
The new NPC ally introduced in this issue does not get a romance score.
So it is the Ja Noi(hobgoblin) Oni then and a bunch of Kami sounds cool to me.

Totally jealous you got yours :)
Seems like I got it yesterday, only that my notification mail didn't arrive yet.
First impressions:
- Finally some diplomacy and roleplaying-heavy encounters, in the first half of the module! Looks fun and I'll look forward to seeing how my players handle them.
- Sadly, there's once again basically nothing for our important NPC's to do. There's even nothing to indicate what the GM is supposed to be doing with them while the PC's are off in the different encounter locations. Some reasons why the NPC's aren't accompanying the PC's would have been very much appreciated, also some further guidance at which level they are supposed to be kept in respect to the PC's.
so, whos the hoss guy on the cover???
Y'know, this book went really, heavy deeply into the Oriental horror vibe. The primary dungeon has more things in to gross and horrify the characters then anything in Carrion Crown.
If you think the Oni are just some more faceless evils to beat on, this book will disabuse you of that notion quite severely.

Do you download the PDF's to look through? they are available probably a week before the product ships. Just DL them.
Given I'm renting now, I'm actually wondering what to do with all the paper copies when I eventually move. I love being able to pick up and read something, but I do have to say, data is a lot more portable.

Seems like I got it yesterday, only that my notification mail didn't arrive yet.Notification emails are sent within seconds of the order being processed (and of the PDF being attached to your account). Check your spam filter?
Paizo ain't in it. :) It's just as possible that I simply deleted it with some other mails, although that happens very seldomly. If next month the same thing happens, I'll make some noises. ^^

It does look like your email notification went out, but it's entirely possible a grue ate it. Please let us know if you have any further problems with emails from us!
Does this adventure have princess mononoke style giant spirit animals?

We get our first look at a Kitsune? Now I gotta get it -- okay, I had to get it in any event, but now it's a case of 'Before I buy any other Pathfinder books'.

Minor question. Oni and Kami seem to get Common as a language, sometimes their only language. I cannot believe this is Taldane, so is 'Common' now used relatively to denote the common language of an area, i.e., in this case probably Tien?
In the bestiary pages for oni and kami, we use Common as a language, since that's what's in the Core Rulebook. As Tien is the "common" tongue of Tian Xia, they should definitely speak Tien instead if they're encountered there. The actual kami and oni in the Adventure Path have Tien (and other Tian languages, especially Minkaian) in their stat blocks. If a stat block in the adventure lists Common and Tien, then the creature speaks Taldane as well.
So the green dude on the cover is the Jade Regent right? does that mean he's a badass samurai? What? No spellcasting BBEG?

I am pre-rereading before I run this. A question;Does Li Xu (pg 17) have a xp award? if so it is not in her stat block. Just asking .
Li Xu is NG, so she does not have an XP award. As explained under XP in "Elements of a Spirit" on page 16, "The PCs do not earn XP for destroying a good spirit or a spirit that provides a boon."
Presumably, there´s a jingasa in here which might not see the errata, since AP´s normaly don´t get that treatment.
PFS players as well as the PFS GMs and the PFS team have to stick to the errata, no matter wether there is another source of the item getting not errataed or not. This was a design team decision, the PFS team wasn´t involved and for PFS players there´s no way around.
Some people might want to keep the pre-errata stuff though and buy those PDFs now for this cause. So more of a not-PFS thing.
