Pathfinder Pawns: Bestiary 3 Box

Announced! The product image is a mockup (but it'll be very close to that).

YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

what he said

SOLD! :D

waiting for it

Looking forward to this and #2 myself. I do have a question however, has it ever been mentioned about potential type specific boxes? I mean, The boxes themselves are great for a starter and wide array of monsters to throw at my parties, but it's somewhat difficult to throw 20 or so Orc's at a party when I only have 3.

Methinks Paizo should consider Blisters along the lines of "Goblinoid War Party", "Vermin Swarm Box" that sort of thing... obviously containing a whole bunch of cards for the specific types or groups.

I, and others, have expressed such views in the past in several threads. One such thread included the following comment:

Auggies sells them.

(I, myself, have never ordered anything from Auggies Games, so I can't personally vouch for it.)

I'm not sure anymore wether I want to buy all these or i simply can't not buy them. All I know is i'm going to buy the crap out of this one as i did with the Bestiary Box and the two AP pawn sets and as I will have done with the B2 box.

I love pawns. I hope we get to see a content list soon.

I really want to see Carrion Crown next in line. That would mean hope for backwards-support for Jade Regent (what I'm running) and beyond. Obviously, they gotta support Wrath of the Righteous and beyond first and foremost, but in 'off season' retro-active releases would be immensely appreciated.

(I, myself, have never ordered anything from Auggies Games, so I can't personally vouch for it.)

I've bought minis from Auggie's Prostore on numerous occasions, and can give a very favorable recommendation of him. He's extremely reliable, and provides exemplary customer service.

Are we ever gonna get Colossal and/or Gargantuan pawns?

I love Pathfinder Pawns. Such an amazing product! Glad to see it's going well enough to get both Bestiary 2 and 3 out so soon after the NPC Codex Box!

I'd love to see supplemental sets that cover creatures left out of the Beastiary Box 1, 2 and 3. I'd also love to see a Pawn set of Common Variant Monsters. I'll be picking up 2 of the Bestiary 2 at Gencon and will be getting 2 of Bestiary 3. Now to find a more efficient way to organize them.

If in this, does the Azruverda (the beetle thing) get new artwork?

PE-leasssseeeeeee

I agree with Telefragged. I haven't seen the other posts concerning this, but a set of common creature pawns would be great. This could include all of the humanoid types (Goblins, Kobolds, Orcs, etc) along with some leader pawns for them. This would also be cool for Skeleton, Zombies, etc.

Another idead would be to release a set of blank pawns of the various sizes so players can make there own custom pawns. A nice color printer on self adhesive paper would do the trick nicely.

Updated product image.

What is that green beetle thing on the box itself? Is that the new Azruverda? As I can't recall any other beetle monsters in the book.

I spy a pushed back release date. So much for a November release.

I don't know about this one. Sure this will give me lots of monsters for when the party visits the Africa, Asia, Americas, etc analogs. Without also having NPC pawns for those areas however I can't really represent voyages to those lands. So what's the use of having monsters from those regions when I can't properly represent those places? I dunno.

Like you have to use the monsters from real folklore always in the same countries??? YOu can also cut away the real world behind them and just place them in Golarion or on another world....

100% this.

I like different places to have distinct flora and fauna to give them flavors. If everywhere in the world has the same monsters regardless of continent it's a bit bland imo. It's like irl when everywhere you go has the same exact stores no matter where you go. There is of course the option of finding creatures outside their usual habitat. Using nonnative species would only be useful in rather specific scenarios though.

Yes but your world doesn't need to be earth.

Please include more plastic base pieces!

Why is there such a long lead (more like lag) time between a Bestiary volume and it's Pawn collection? You'd think a book and it's pawn collection would sell together like peas and carrots, bacon and eggs... and now I'm hungry.

Please include more plastic base pieces!

Previous Bestiary Boxes have included additional base pieces, and I expect this one will be the same. :D

When can we expect a monster listing for this?

Auggie's is amazing. My #1 source for singles... Other than Paizo, of course.

Same. Some of these monsters just beg to have a spot on the map. I enjoy many of them greatly and can't wait to see who made the cut.

I too would like to see the monster listing for this, only month and a half away!

Excellent! Release the three-headed hound!

Any chance of getting a content list before it comes out?

Too bad the following monsters didn't made the cut, most of them are too big or too small, but some like the Akhlut, Carbuncle, Cold Rider, Pachycephalosaurus, Dimetrodon, Giant Owl, Sagari and Giant Skunk are cut for other reasons??

Akhlut / Bandersnatch / Carbuncle / Cold Rider / Pachycephalosaurus / Dimetrodon / Gremlin Fuath / Grootslang / Sapphire Jellyfish / Giant Owl / Plasma Ooze / Sagari / Sea Bonze / Giant Skunk / Titan, Hekantoncheires / Tzitzimitl

Woot! Thanks. :)

@Gancanagh,

You can always just make a few custom pawns concerning the pawns you wanted to make the cut.

I am really excited about this pawn set as well. The Pathfinder pawn series is probably the best thing to happen to RPG in a long time. I bought three boxes of bestiary at Christmas.

No news on the next set?

Hey when did they go up? Sneaky ninjas!

For the ones that have it already, which pawns have new artwork?

Is this product for sale? I see the pdf is available on the 29th, but are the print editions already for sale directly from Paizo?

"Add Print Edition" adds the physical product to your shopping cart. When the PDF becomes available, it will show "Add PDF" as an option.

Thanks Liz. You've been really helpful answering a number of my questions in these threads, and I appreciate your help. :)

Just received my box of Pathfinder Bestiary 3 Pawns. A few notes - both good and a few moderate critiques.

The good - all of the artwork for this collection if first rate. There are a number of pawns with new artwork. Even the much vilified green beetle creature has new artwork. It seems Paizo heard the cries of its fans regarding some of the artwork from the book and made a few corrections. There is a great variety regarding the pawns. This most recent collection of pawns is probably the most expansive in terms of variety.

The moderate (there's really no "bad" points) - some of the pawns, like the adlet or the legion archon, are a bit small to scale. I know this is nitpicking it, but part of the reason I love Pathfinder Pawns so much is that they take into account the smallest details such as scale, color scheme, etc. I'm a sucker for scale dimensions and I'd say about 5% of these pawns could have been a few scale sizes bigger. Just my personal preference.

Other than that, I can't really complain. There are no glaring omissions from the Bestiary 3 book (cecaelia has new artwork, as does catfolk, and a few others - which are really nice). There was really only one pawn I wish had made the cut that didn't was the lion creature with the sword drawn by Ryan Portillo.

That said, Pathfinder, you absolutely must include these pawns for the next set:

- Cernunnos
- Erlking
- Gathlain
- Kitsune
- Nagaji
- Svartalfar
- Trox
- Wikkiwak
- Wyvaran

The artwork from these creatures is sensational. Please include them in the next bestiary!

Thanks Paizo!

Some very nice new artworks in here! Some I don't understand why they get so much attentions why others still have their old artwork.

Really like the new Bhuta, Bogeyman, Carnivorous Crystal (tho the color is a bit underwhelming compared to the old art), Demodands, Cerberi, Foo Dog, All the New Dragon art, Marai, Penananggal, Iku-Turso, Garden Ooze, Azruverda, Nixie, Giant Rot Grub, Rot Grub Swarm and Gorynych.

And most of all the Hieracosphinx and Ghawwas! Yeah, they really needed new artwork and they are really awesome peaces!

Don't really understand why the Catfolk, Cecealia, Eremite, Interlocutor, Sasquatch, Ant Lion, Deathtrap Ooze, Annis and snake swarm needed new artwork tho, some others could use it more...

Don't like the new Guecubu artwork, too much bones, I really like them to be more rock and earth.

Too bad the Ahuizotl, Coloxus, Incubus, Manananggal, Popobala, Jackalwere, Thriae, Ascomoid, Derhii, Sargassum Fiend, Taotieh, Stymphalidies, Leshies, Magmin, Kongamato, Wolf-in-sheeps-clothing and Hodag didn't changed art, hope to see them in AP's some day with new clothes.

Anyway the whole product gets a 8/10 from me. Very usefull, too bad some are missing and some artwork should have changed, but otherwise very good! Hope to see the Tiny/Gargantuan/Colossal pack one day!

You mean this one? Or maybe this one?

You may want to check the site. Neither of these show up when you click on the Pawns option under miniatures or accessories.

Okay... let me just put more sorting boxes on my shopping list.

Nice pawns, great variety and I like the new art in some of the pawns. I did have one minor problem though

------very minor spoiler----

Why was Akhlut not featured in these pawns? It is even required in one part of reign of winter adventure path + pawn for akhlut was not among pawns for that adventure path either. I understand cutting something out as you clearly need to do that but omitting something that is required in official paizo release is kind of odd to me.
