I find her beginner box campaign setting


Beginner Box

Hi I m a new GM I am wondering what campaigns would be best to use with beginning of box and advice would be nice I have some money on Pathfinder but I rather not spend it on the core rules or the beast books since my group hasn't even started a campaign yet.but I have read through 90 % of game Master's guide and 50% of the hero's
handbook. I have played and DM that one game of d&d 4e I didn't really enjoy it but I have enjoyed Pathfinder so far


To spend on. Red box d&d is what I This would be cool if paizo could make campaign setting and adventure paths and player companion's to introduce those products designed specifically for the beginner box .

Liberty's Edge

If access to rules is an issue, check out paizo's PRD or d20pfsrd, both of which list the complete rules, monsters, etc for free. You buy the books for convenience and the art. The art is awesome, by the way.

As for campaigns, well, you either have to make one up yourself or buy it. You might try picking up a module or two instead and seeing where those lead, possibly building a campaign off of one of them. Since you're new, however, buying a campaign is probably better. Serpent's Skull seems like a fairly easy one to DM (talking from a player's standpoint, though). Kingmaker has some complex kingdom-building stuff, but has an option for skipping it. I haven't played the other paizo campaigns, so I can't attest to how good they would be.

The cheapest option is to find a 3rd party module online (you could probably dig up a free one or two) and use the rules from the sites listed above. This leaves you with a net cost of 0 (assuming you have dice, pencils and paper). Once you've played a session or two you can decide whether you wish to invest more.


The adventure Crypt of the Everflame is meant to introduce players & GMs to the full rules, and when combined with Masks of the Living God and City of Golden Death, they work out to a mini-campaign that will take your characters to at least sixth level. I haven't played them, but there's been a lot of positive reviews.


Welcome to Pathfinder and the forums,

I'm guessing you picked up the free BB Play pack, GM Kit and possible the Bash Demos

For a starter campaign you could run Crypt of Everflame and not into Masks of the Living God or City of the Golden Death
or with a little updating Hollow's Last Hope followed by Crown of the Kobold King, but can't run any farther and into Revenge of the Kobold King, Carnival of Tears and finally Hungry are the Dead

Good part is the first and third parts in the Darkmoon vale series are free

Good tools for any Game can be found in the Game Mastery section


Thank you for the advice I have played through the black with my players seems happy and satisfied we made characters though we aren't planning on playing for two or three more weeks and then regularly playing every week. I'm not sure about the modules how many e
2 to4 hours sessions can I get out of the single module


If it's the Free Modules found on the paizo site (Like Hollows last Hope), you could get a good 3 to 5 sessions out of it, the other ones will be between 5 to 15 sessions pending on various factors.


Been running Crypt of the Everflame with the Beginner Box - 1 4 hour session to clear the 1st level and I'd expect another 4 hours on the 2nd level. It also took 4 hours to do Black Fang's dungeon, so it seems that 1 4 hour session per flip-mat side is a good estimate. :)
