Aaaarrrrgh. I've been waiting for an adventure invlving treerazor but now I will have to wait a while to run this I just finished running a home brew adventure where the players had to free an ancient city from the grasp of cyth-vusag. Lots of fungal and plant monsters, spore bats, demons and undead. Level 5-15 adventure set in every part of the city. I will wait though and tun this in late 2025 -2026. Can not wait to see the bestiary sections.

I NEED to hear more about this brewing continental war, holy cow.
Intimations of an Inner Sea general war and the building of an alliance system to fight in it are likewise relevant to my interests—but I suspect the larger war will be derailed somewhat, or that Kyonin will be too distracted or exhausted to fight in it thus weakening the bloc with which it is aligned, by the more local Spore War.

From the office of Expectation Management...
Also from the same office: There's no "on screen mass combat" going on in Spore War, but the PCs' triumphs and failures during their adventures will impact the direction of that war.

I hope you guys are finally bringing out the “Armies of Golarion” supplement that has been discussed before. The game needs it, and with all the wars you have planned, now is the time for it.
Battlecry is next summer's big GenCon release. It will debut the Commander and Guardian classes. I would assume that the Imner Sea is going to war some time around then.

Spore War comes out half a year before that too, so it's deliberately not created or written to take advantage of Battlecry's contents (although you can certainly play commanders and guardians in Spore War, just as you can any Adventure Path, if you start your Spore War game after Battlecry is out).
What we might be doing later in the Adventure Path line after Spore War is not yet announced.

I'm wondering if this adventure will use the brand new mythic rules that will come out in War of Immortals.
The mythic rules in War of Immortals weren't complete enough (which also meant that I as the developer wasn't savvy enough with them to responsibly do mythic content) in time to be used in Spore War, but there is some vaguely "mythic adjacent" stuff in there, since an ongoing theme is "power up the PCs more than others of equal level in other Adventure Paths because Treerazer is a badass."
Part of me kinda wishes I'd held off on Spore War until 2025 or later so it could take advantage of both the mythic rules in War of Immortals and the rules for the upcoming Battlecry! book... but at the same time, this is an Adventure Path I've tried to get off the ground numerous times before and for various reasons it never did, so when this opportunity struck, I pounced!

Still nice. Appreciated the Stolen Fate ap with the power ups in form of the different artifacts based on the harrow cards. I'm sure I'll love even this high level "elven" adventure.

Could you please add a good and not circumstantial lvl 13 elven feat? :)
We shipped this volume a few months ago, so it's far too late to make any changes.
That said, here's a list of the levels for the new, uncommon elf ancestry feats included in this volume.
Level 5: 2 feats
Level 9: 2 feats
Level 13: 3 feats
Level 17: 1 feat
Whether or not any or all of those will e "good and not circumstantial" will be up to folks' individual tastes, but I worked with the author and tried to develop these in particular that they'd all be pretty great choices that will see some use in Spore War. They might not all be the best choices for every elf in every campaign, though; keep in mind that these feats are first and foremost for Spore War PCs.
Hence, uncommon feats.

Is it possible for subscribers to get their PDFs before Christmas break, very much looking forward to the elf-themed adventure path!
Subscribers gets their PDF when their books ship.
+++ WARNING: SHAKY SPECULATIONS FOLLOWS +++
So, last years, shipping start, shipping end, and street date for the January releases was this:
•Begin Shipping Estimate: 1/15/2024
•End Shipping Estimate: 1/26/2024
•Street Date for Paizo Products: 1/31/2024
This year, the release date is almost a month before! On the 8th of January!
That makes it hard to speculate, cause in normal cases, as you see above, shipping start and end are respectively 2 and 1 week before~ish release. BUT, this time, that would put the start at around the 23rd of December and the ends around the 3rd of January. That put TWO holidays in the middle of it, which is... not great... so there's chances that they will do something different?
But worst~ish case, I'd say you have about 2 days of hope to get it before XMas, and would put lot of potential delay in shipping for pretty much everyone. >_>
It's possible that they could start shipping a week earlier, in expectation that the holidays would disrupt it all a LOT. But we don'T know. And I would manage my expectations.
