Dragons Revisited Conversion

[sejemaset]

I was just wondering if anyone had thought about converting the stats for unique dragons in Dragons Revisited to Pathfinder. I was looking at Daralathyxl and currently don't know what would be the best way to go about it as the stats are really close to a 3.5 MM Great Wyrm Red Dragon but would be about twice as powerful as a PFRPG Bestiary Great Wyrm Red Dragon.

Actually I would like to take this opportunity and request a re-write of Dragons Revisited (maye call it...Dragons of Golarion) for several reasons, stats being one of them? :)

We've still got plenty of this book in stock. A rewrite isn't on the to-do list as a result.

What James is saying is convince everyone you know to buy it, till it sells out. Then convince them all to come request a new version of it. Then and only then will they do a new book. Least thats what I read.

I don't think a complete rewrite is necessary but it would be nice if the odd feat or stat block were done. Especially given the changes to dragons (for example a Great Wyrm Red in Pathfinder has half as many hit dice as 3.5 which makes converting unique dragons difficult.

Actually my main issue was that Dragons Revisited was written with somewhat different vision of dragon presence on Golarion that it is currently... Mike McArtor had a far more Forgotten Realms-y approach of "every city has a drunken bronze dragon in a tavern", while the current angle seems to be that Golarion dragons are creatures of almost mythical status, removed from the problems of humanity (Mengkare being an exception that proves the rule).

Of course more premade dragon statblocks is something that never gets old, too!

Well, I'm not buying two ... so I guess it's up to the rest of you, eh?
