What's McArtor working on?


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion

Dark Archive

Before the traitor...er...Mike McArtor fled...er...left Paizo, he mentioned he'd be working on some Paizo projects as a free-lancer.

So, what are the project(s)?


The Dragons book, IIRC.

Good Ninja Minion

Don't you be calling the Gninja Master a traitor! *readies shuriken*

The Exchange Kobold Press

Also, the Tales of Zobeck adventure anthology and gazeteer.

...which was a truly pleasant surprise. Kudos for wrangling that!

~wistles~ If I had a spare $100, I would send it your way for the signed copy. Oh well, I guess I will have to divert $30.

Well he's SUPPOSED to be giving me the last missing pieces of Dragons Revisited.

If he comes in here doin' a pretty type-and-dance, I'll politely remind him of those missing pieces.

By cuttin' him....

He's lit out for the territories, Sean, ya can't hold him back! He's off the reservation: McArtor is a free man!

Free, that is, as soon as he turns over some primo edited Tales....

Perhaps you could try grappling him or is his combat maneuver bonus to high for that?

Could somebody point me out a thread to wish Mike McArtor all the best !?

I just received "elves of Golarion" and discovered he was to leave Paizo.

Thanks.


Didn't Mike talk about doing a new take on Oriental Adventures, complete with information about Golarion's east, and also new versions of classes like Samurai, Ninja, and so on?

You can always make a new one.


Oh that would be savage, particularily interested in the Golarion Samurai.

And some nice monsters, as Paizo draws so heavily from mythology, they should have a distinctly new and oriental feel!

Or hell a monsters of garundi book, with various creatures from african myths would be awesome, and I'd say capture many unused ideas in fantasy.

Sorry, got carried away, all the best to Mike McArtor, I have high hopes the he's doing great work!

The thing is, now that I've seen the excellent work he did with the "Guide to Korvosa" and "Children of the Void" I don't know if I should feel sadly ('cause it was great to have him regularly on these boards and naturally to have him work for Paizo) or rather happy( 'cause now he might have much more time to actually write after being freed of the duties of an editor)

I just hope that Sean being the new editor doesn't stop him from writing. The "Ghostwalk"-Blog reminded me of how much I love most of his other work and the Core Beliefs-series in Dragon and his treatment of the Pathfinder Deities have been gorgeous.

He has multiple AoO.

This was before he left Paizo, but yes he and Nick were both all about it back in the spring. I remember Erik saying in a chat that Oriental Adventures is one of the three most requested rules content supplements that they've been hearing (along with psionics and epic) and that it would probably be one of the earlier splatbooks released for PRPG. \

Here's to hoping!
