Just got the Xmas card--what should I get with it?

I have the Core Rulebook, the Bestiary, and the APG.

Any suggestions of what I should get? Preferably something that's fun to browse a lot.

Thanks!

I have a suggestion.


My vote? Advanced Race Guide. Comes with 30 more races, and if none of those suit you, an entire section in the back to build your own race!


Grab another Bestiary (II, III, IV, or Inner Sea Bestiary).


If you're sticking to the Rulebook line I'd get NPC Codex or Ultimate Campaign

In the various Golarion-lines I'd have to say either get Inner Sea World Guide - even if you play in a homebrew setting it's great for mining ideas and is a beautiful book (I have two!) - or as many of the Book of the Damned and Chronicle of the Righteous books you feel you can afford. (I'd have mentioned Gods & Magic as well, but with Inner Sea Gods coming in a few months it seems a redundant purchase - if Paizo even has any copies left in the warehouse.)


Yeah, Inner Sea World Guide is great if you play/GMin Golarion, and is chock-full of ideas if you don't. Great Beyond and Distant Worlds are also excellent.

I usually do homebrew stuff. We ARE doing Kingmaker though. The first pre-published campaign I've ever played or run. It's a little less immersive than homebrews IMHO; sometimes it's confusing for the GMs (I ran levels 1-4) and that can break the 4th wall too much.

I realize this forum drinks deeply of the Kool-Aid, but NOBODY other than me is going to offer any non-Paizo suggestions?

I concur with Ultimate Psionics.

What is this Xmas card you speak of? Was it a gift card for store credit from a loved one?


If you bought something physical from Paizo this year, they probably mailed you a Christmas card with the 10%-off discount code.


well, that would explain why, says it can't be used for other publishers stuff.


I'm saving mine for the complete set of Wrath of the Righteous PDFs once they are all released.

Get Ultimate Campaign for the kingdom building rules then, because the rules they published in Kingmaker are broken.

Not how my card reads. It says it can't be used for other publishers electronic download items. So, no Frog God Games PDFs, but it should be acceptable for the physical books.

Coupon expires on 31 Jan, so I wouldn't wait until then if you actually want the benefit.

Ah, misread it. Oh well!

If 3rd party stuff is an option, I'm leaning towards the Pact Magic stuff. :-D

Could there be other reasons then Kool-aid, like him asking for advice in the Paizo Products section...nah, can't be...

Also, it's a lot more difficult to give suggestions outside Paizo. Many DMs (myself largely included) don't like 3pp stuff too much, simply due to the high variance in both power and quality, due to the shear volume of the stuff that exists. With Paizo stuff, you can usually guarantee the DM will allow it, unless it's a core (or Core+)-only group, in which case, the OP probably would have said something.
