Pathfinder Adventure Path #127: Crownfall (War for the Crown 1 of 6)

It's all cued up in my subscription. Now the eager wait for shipping begins!

I'm not seeing a pdf option, are these handled differently than the player companions? I get that it isn't quite time for the official release, but there is usually an "pdf expected" time, at least for the companions, I think.

The PDF always shows up on the street date so they don't bother posting the date. If that differs for Player's Companions, there is probably some obscure reason for it.

So expect the PDF Feb. 28th.

Oh, and it appears the fourth iconic is the psychic, Rivani. So healing falls to Quinn*.

*The party I'm currently running through Iron Gods has no cleric and an investigator as the primary healer. This actually works well with the infusion talent; just expect most healing to be done outside of combat and plan accordingly.

So anyone got there subscriber PDF'S yet

Is the player's guide available yet?

No

Will it be soon? :)

Maybe.

Until the Player's Guide comes out may i recommend Taldor, The First Empire.

I got it last night and it's been a super fun read so far!

*will wait for the Player's Guide first...*

Hey folks, I just wanted to pop in here and address the Player's Guide question that's been floating around. Due to illnesses and other production-related issues, the Player's Guide for this Adventure Path is going to be delayed longer than normal. While we try to have them out by the time subscribers start getting their PDFs, that isn't going to happen this time around. I still endeavor to have it out as soon as possible, but I have no firm estimates at this time.

Thanks for your patience.

No probs. Running an AP before you have all 6 books is not the best idea in any case.

2017s first player´s Guide was out on march 16th, so no worries there and get well soon! :-)

Street date is the last day of february, so that should suffice. ;-)

I got my shipping notice a few minutes ago, so...

...it has begun!

I got my shipping notice a few minutes ago...

This does not surprise me.

How is the first chapter also hows the art?

Np, thankies for the heads-up.

*offers tummy wubs to the ill*

If it's that new flu-bug flying around, take vitamin C supplements in the morning, Something Spicy for lunch for Viruses or Non-spicy Curry if it's more fatigue related.

I know lots of foods that actually help with different variants of Colds and flu's.

I could have a heart attack of not surprise.

I haven't read it yet, but the art is pretty solid. There are a lot of NPC portraits and such.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. What I meant was that I can't tell from the art in Chapter 1 who that character is. It might be someone completely new to that volume.

Thank you Mister Daigle! I will now curb my enthusiasm (or at least my expectations) on getting the Player's guide before the end of February.

Skeld: I'm running PFS Honor's Echo now... could use a portrait of Eutropia if you have one. Roger Out.

I got my shipping notice a few minutes ago, so...

-Skeld

Me too. This is the first time I got mine on the first day. I'm stoked. And I'm also behind on my CoCT and Ironfang note generation. Too much reading to do this week, coupled with all the wine I have to finish... ARGH! :)

For the record, I like the maps.

According to the file name for the image on artist Hugh Pindur's ArtStation page, the woman on the cover of War for the Crown #2: Songbird, Scion, Saboteur is indeed Princess Eutropia.

The artwork can be found HERE.

Woohoo!

She looks Thrune-curious.

What an awesome picture.

No probs. Running an AP before you have all 6 books is not the best idea in any case.

I usually wait for all six to be sanctioned for PFS. :P

Thanks for the head's up.

I meant to mention the maps; they're great. I especially like the inside cover map, with the various regions/loyalties highlighted.

Skeld,

-Can you elaborate on the inside cover map (of Taldor and it´s counties, i assume)?

-Lastly, how many "primary movers and shakers within the Taldan senate" are in the book and are stats or CR given?

Thanks a lot,
Marco.

Agreed, or at least Chelaxian in dress.

Regardless, that is amazing art.

Does she really need two rapiers? ;)

That won't do, for this one... the demands from my players are... more immediate... :)

Skeld,

-can you share how large the gazetteer of Oppara is and how detailed the map (as we´ll get that one as one of the three in the map folio)?

-Can you elaborate on the inside cover map (of Taldor and it´s counties, i assume)?

-Lastly, how many "primary movers and shakers within the Taldan senate" are in the book and are stats or CR given?

I'm not Skeld, but here you go:

The Oppara gazetteer is 10 pages, with one page the usual intro and one page with a map. The map is basically the same map from the Player Companion, but redrawn, but there are some other numbered locations this time.

The inside cover map is very much in the same style as the inside cover maps from Ironfang Invasion and it shows "succession loyalties". If you want a map of Taldor's "counties" (which are called prefectures), there's one in Taldor, the First Empire. This is not it.

The "Faces of the Senate" article details 12 senators that may be important in this campaign, each with half a page. The get abbreviated Ultimate Intrigue social stat blocks that list alignment and classes, but no level or CR or other stats. ("This allows you to further flesh out these characters based on the needs of your campaign.")

Thanks for the assist. I've been busy at work today.

This...this is a lesson I have learned the "fun" way.

Just a curiosity, but is the main bad guy in ANY way related to Daemons or Divs?

Also what's the onyvolan like?

What monsters do we have this time around? Any historical timelines in the backmatter?

Mm Oh well. I was hoping but not expecting. Thank you Skeld! :)

So I'm hysterically afraid of rats, but...

Also, those fantionettes!

The Onyvolan are great! They appear to be inspired by

Holy crap, this book is great

I'd rate it 5/5 if I don't have standards of reviewing adventures only after running them :'D But yeah, so fricking good
