Get 12% off your Paizo.com order!

Celebrate the big game with everybody here at Paizo!

It's no surprise that we like games here at Paizo, but we're not just talking about roleplaying games. Skirmish miniature games, a bout of Dominion over lunch, Munchkin in the conference room—all games have a fan among someone on the staff. What some of you may not know is that there a lot of football fans here at Paizo, and when the home team heads to the Biggest Game of the Year, we gotta show our love! For the entire month of February, you can get 12% off a single order when you use the 12thMan discount code during checkout. If you're already receiving your Pathfinder Advantage discount for being a Pathfinder Adventure Path subscriber, you'll get the benefits of both discounts for one order. There are some restrictions for this offer (don't worry, we won't send you to sit by the cooler for the rest of the game), as this offer does not apply to subscriptions, backorders, preorders, and downloads or print releases from third-party publishers. Thousands of products await to go from our warehouse crew to your gaming library—but remember, you can use the 12thMan discount only once!

Not sure where to start shopping? Check out our huge selection of card and board games like the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game or Channel A, find the perfect adventure for your Pathfinder game, grab a t-shirt—and that's just a sample of what you can do with your discount code!

Update: We've fixed some confusing language in the post. The 12thMan discount code does not apply to subscription items. You can use it to place an order for qualifying items that ship with a subscription shipment, but the subscription items themselves will not be discounted.

Wow. I usually like to use these Paizo discounts to stock up on stuff.

But, as a 49ers fan, I don't know if I can bring myself to it this time around....

As a fellow 9ers fan I don't think I can bring myself to use this discount either

It just feels...wrong.


Just tell yourself it's Texas A&M's trademark. The Seahawks have to pay the Aggies a licensing fee every year to use it. Of course, if you're a 49ers fan and a Longhorn, you're out of luck. :)


I'm not a 49ers fan at all. I probably dislike them more than any other team right now, but I still really dislike Seattle also, almost as much, especially this year. As somebody that's usually neutral towards them I found both team's coaches and players have become very dislikable. I was sad when those two made it to the NFC championship, even if they really were it's two best teams in it.

I'm not a big Broncos fan (although I am a Peyton fan), but I don't hold anything against them either. It's not so much that I will root for them to win as I'm rooting for Seattle to lose.

All that being said I like Paizo and it's employees enough not to hold a team they like against them.

Is it okay if I take your discounts and add them to mine? Thanks!

Oh, mind you, I'll sell out and use the discount :) But I'll feel guilty while I'm doing it....

Beast Mode (Ex) When Marshawn confirms a critical hit with his slam attack, he ignores the target's hardness and damage reduction. A creature or object of Medium size or smaller struck by Beast Mode is thrown 5d6 feet (DC 30 Fort halves); if the creature fails the save by 5 or more, it is knocked prone and becomes shaken. For the next 3 rounds, Marshawn also gains a +3 Skittles bonus to his Combat Maneuver Defense when an opponent tries to bull rush him.
Marshawn may expend one use of mythic power to generate a minor earthquake with his Beast Mode. For 1 minute or until Marshawn is knocked prone, all opponents within 60 feet must succeed at a DC 20 Reflex save to avoid becoming shaken each round.

Wait so if Seattle wins do we get an ever better discount?


I'm a big fan of the City of Seattle. And I love Paizo. And even though I live in the SF Bay Area, I'm only mildly disappointed that the 'Niners stalled-out.

But I have to echo the sentiment that Seattle's players and managers are being less than likeable this year, and will add that their fanbase have in general been loud, obnoxious, and generally poor winners.

Boo.

I suppose I should not be surprised, nor begrudge Paizo for sporting the home team's colors, but...

Boo.

Boo, you terrible Seattle fans, you. (Especially my buddy's recently transported wife, clearly miserable at moving here from Washington, who has got to be amongst the most intolerably obnoxious - and MEAN - Seahawks fans on the planet.)


Twelfth Man??!!

I didn't know you followed the Ashes in the U.S.!

I just used the previous promotional code yesterday! (When I got a nice little reminder by snail mail. You guys might want to ship your seasons greetings to Europe a little earlier.)

How long is this code valid?

Scarab Sages

Worst NFC championship matchup ever. Only one team from the NFC west deserves to be in the Super Bowl, the St. Louis Rams!

Per the fine print: "this offer does not apply to new subscriptions, backorders, preorders, and downloads or print releases from third-party publishers."

So, unfortunately not.


Oh come on! I just put an almost 100 dollar order in yesterday *sighs*


Go HAWKS!!! Denver is over rated.

Silver Crusade

Go Hawks!!!!! Thank you Paizo.
As for the bad fans well there is a few in every group, I literally know hundreds of seahawks fans. most are pretty cool. like me of course. :P

I thought the football team in Seattle was called the Sounders...

And isn't the MLS Cup final in the autumn?

Take it! What is a measly 12% when compared to my 49er pride?

Hmm...that could add up to quite a lot actually.

Oh cruel world.

Tell me about it. I feel dirty using this code since Im a 49er fan, however its also 12%. Too bad Paizo wasn't in NorCal, we could possibly (one day) get a code for 49% off!

Dark Archive

That I would most definitely use!

I fail to understand sports fandom. You really have no vested interest in the team's victory or defeat unless you own the franchise. I saw a guy today who unliked the Oatmeal's Facebook page today because of a cartoon. A cartoon. It was an Angry Birds version of a seahawk riding a galloping and severely obese bronco with a Superbowl trophy dangling on the end of a stick to entice the horse to keep moving. That was the final straw for the Broncos fan, apparently.

Now RPG fandom I understand just fine. Thanks, Paizo, for the discount.

Liberty's Edge

Nobody ever understands anybody else's fandom.

Football fans "get" the people who dress up in jerseys and tailgate before games.

They completely do not understand people who cosplay and party in line before the release of a new big SF movie, and think they are a different species.

...and vice versa. It's a common meme amongst RPG geeks that it's cool to not "get" football.


Oh, it's not the dress-ups and the tailgate parties. That's all within the realm of understanding. It's the loyalty to the point of self-sacrifice and stress that I don't get. It's getting offended at jokes or not taking advantage of a sale because it's dressed in the colors of an opposing team. Basically making your life more difficult because of lines of brand loyalty. That's what I don't get.

$14.27 with the order I put in today. That coupled with the $10 off shipping for orders over $100, the AP subscriber discount, and $100 worth of gift certificates (thanks to my wife and I laws) allowed me to order seven AP volumes for 6 bucks completing two more APs in my collection have made me a very happy Paizonite!

I have no idea what the number 12 signifies but I am so happy I was curious enough to click on this blog post :D


Nice discount.

The text of the discount states that new subscriptions don't qualify. What about existing subs? Is there a way to have my February sub discounted? If not maybe just the side cart items I have added that would otherwise qualify?

Silver Crusade

the 12th man signifies the fans as a "teammate" to the actual team on the field. ie you play at our house, your gonna have to face us as well.

That being said, I'm a Saints fan living in eastern OR. I'm not a Seahawk fan but I'll gladly use this code if I put a order in this month.

Thank you Paizo!

The Seahawks have some really hot dice tonight. Successful steals, feints, acrobatics checks... all with natural 20's. Practically a coup de grace on the Broncos.

Don't care much about football myself, but I already used the discount :D

Seattle Defense pulled out the Developer-Stick and nerfed the hell out of Peyton. It was painful to watch, and my home team has Tony Romo as a QB...

Patriots fan here, so my team was eliminated two weeks ago. Didn't really have a horse in this race, but Sherman's rant in the Conference game definitely made me root for the Broncos.

Hate to see any team lose that bad. I think Brady might have had a better chance. Manning always seems to choke in the big game.

Still, I'll use the discount....

Silver Crusade

Wait so does this mean the discount gets bigger?

Thanks. I thought it might be the number of the current favorite player or something.

Go look at the Crane Wing nerfing thread and you'll see that although we're all different colors, we're all the same damn bird.

It's similar to science fiction and fantasy fans that get upset or stress out by changes that are made in a movie. I heard no end of the gnashing of teeth of Superman killing the bad guy in the newest movie, or the new Star Trek movies being different than the original, or which Doctor Who is the "real one" and which is the "fake one", or whatever. At least football fans are passionate about something that happens in real life. Many football fans, and others who aren't particularly interested in the fantasy or science fiction genres, don't get why people get why people get so worked up and stressed out about fictional characters and what those fictional characters do.

I consider myself a hardcore gamer/nerd that also happens to be a pretty big sports fan. That being said, I can understand the fandom on both sides. I don't dress up like anime characters or own a team jersey but i get why other people do.

Except for furries...that's just weird. ;)
