Anyone convert Darksun for Pathfinder yet?


Conversions


Looking for rules to run a Pathfinder (or 3.5) Darksun campaign.
Thanks in advance.

Well you could look at getting the back issues for Dragon and Dungeon with the 3.5 Dark Sun articles.

Dragon #315 (Defilers)
Dragon #319 (Player Handbook)
Dungeon Magazine #110 (Companion material for Dragon #319)
Dungeon Magazine #111 (Additional monsters)

Along with that check out Dreamscarred Press and their upcoming 3rd party redo of the 3.5 Psionics rules.

I think that should just about cover you....


I would skip the mags, Dragon 319 and dungeon 110 are the only paizo products I ever regret buying, seriously the adventure in dungeon 110 is utterly worthless without being rewritten.

I would advise you to either convert it yourself or maybe take a wonder over to athas.org and see what they did with the 3.5 rules. But I would strong advise you not to waste money on those mags.

As always YMMV

Fair enough, I just have a ton of DarkSun and DarkSun suitable adventures in my collection of Dungeon mags (every issue from #7-#150) and was thinking of running a campaign. I could do without the psionics I guess and just treat them as spell-like powers. Probably need stats for Muls, Half-Giants and Thri-Kreen. The classes were pretty standard right? Only the magic system had a chance to effect the land?

I'll check out athas.org.
Thanks!

I'm playing in a pathfinder Dark Sun game at the moment, though I'm not entirely happy with the conversion my DM has made. It is largely athas.org conversion with PF and APG content, and some custom stuff.


Just want to second looking at what athas.org has done, it is a very good conversion to 3.5 and the community over there are all hard core fans. I ran a short lived darksun game early this year using those rules with pathfinder core. Would have last longer but a TPK happened and we decided to run an adventure path instead.
