The only problem i have is the 30 or so Bucks needed for the shipping.. Which is why, tough i am more than willing to pay for the book, i will most likely not buy this, at least not as a preorder. Maybe i'll just wait till it gets translated in italian. Such a shame.
James i apreciate honesty and disclosure more than an immaculate production record. So thanks for the insight!
Edit: just Tried to sidecart it.. And the shipping became 0.. Does this mean i get a discounted shipping or the 30$ will just be added to the other shipping fees?

I completely agree with Davalaus being a vivisectionist alchemist.
However I always picture Sial more as an inquisitor or maybe a warpriest.

Wrath of the Righteous is the only one to ever go all the way to 20 and that was a special case. The AP developers have been very open about why they don't want to take APs to level 20. In addition, on this rewrite, they've been pretty descriptive about what they're removing and what they're adding, and it doesn't seem like there'd be a net gain of XP of more than a level, if that.

I remember the original player's guide had a map of Varisia, but I like the parchment style better for player handouts. Do you think the Varisia player's companion pdf could be updated to have its central map included as its own pdf, like in People of the Sands or Bastards of Golarion?

Not really... we don't update PDFs/products in this way.

Thanks for the reply. And thanks to Captain Yesterday for pointing out I have a version in the SS poster map bundle.

Will Curse of the Crimson Throne - Anniversary Edition be available at Gencon 2016?
Is there any indication when it might ship to those who pre-ordered it? Before or after Gencon?
Given that Vol 1 of Strange Eons is not going to be ready for release at Gencon this year, I'm not as certain as I might have once been that Curse of the Crimson Throne will be there.

It won't be shipping by Gencon, the street date is Sept 28 so my guess is shipping is somewhere around the 14th of September, assuming no delays, which happen from time to time. :-)

Well, the PDF is generally only available 30 days after it ships, which would put the release to pre-orders somewhere near the end of August.
But given that the additional profit from direct sales on the Gencon floor of such a book would provide Paizo with 30,000-40,000 Good Reasons Why this book should be available at Indy on August 4, I'm feeling somewhat sanguine about its presence there, just the same.

I can think of even more reasons why doing so would be bad. Namely the subscribers and everyone else who preordered having to wait an extra 2 months and not being happy in the slightest with that arrangement.
If it got bumped up early for everyone then cool though.

Now for the Eternal Question: Do I buy it on Amazon for $50 and free shipping, or buy it from Paizo for $60 and another $12 shipping. Hey, not trying to be disloyal or anything, but $22 bucks is $22 bucks. So the question is whether the PDF is worth $22 when you already own a hardcover.
Plus Amazon will likely have it closer to $40 by the release date.

Well, I think it usually comes out on Amazon a few months after it comes out on Paizo, so that probably depends how quickly you want it.

That pretty much depends on whether you are going to run game online or want to print out handouts from the pdf

I'm fairly certain (as in 100%) Paizo will tell you to go with what works best for you, and I sincerely doubt disloyalty is a word they'd use for anyone buying their products.
