I don't think it's THAT terrible, Ms Frasier.

Also question: Will the Ironfang Campaign thingie have any golem headed chimeras in it? Will it have chimeras?

If a Chimera falls into the Fangwood and it ends up being eaten by a Fungal Queen, does it then become a Salad?

Ironfang Invasion will have chimeras.

And if I chimera is eaten by a fungal queen, you get a turducken.


Okay you answered those two questions well. But what about the golem headed chimeras?!

Given how dwarves hate goblinoids of all kinds, will Iron Fang Invasion PCs be paying a visit to Kraggodan? The invasion looks like it'll be taking place right in their neighborhood...

You'll be happy to know that Kraggodan features heavily in book 4, Siege of Stone, and a little bit in book s5 and 6 as well! And Siege of Stone will also include a gazetteer of the Sky Citadel itself!

The player's guide ever has a campaign trait that boils down to "You are from Kraggodan, and can't get home because of this stupid Molthuni siege, and that really chaps your hammer."

Wow. Pays to have coffee and wake up a bit in the morning.

Complete thread-following failure -- thought the reason that the dwarves couldn't get back to Kraggodan was because for a few brief moments they were eating the wrong tortillas with the wrong seasoning...


Is there even such a thing as too many chili peppers....I think not.

I run a twice-monthly game here at the office, running a few of the developers through Hell's Rebels. It's surprisingly roleplay-heavy for a bunch of people who crunch game statistics all day.

I used to be in a weekly Pathfinder game as a player, but that fell apart about six months back. These days the only chance I get to play is in James Jacobs's occasional developer playthrough of Temple of Eelemental Evil


How do you feel about your GoFundMe meeting its goal in less than 12 hours?


Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber

So I'm listening to old Know Direction podcasts, and come across I think its James JAcobs saying that there are several countries that they've been saving for the "War AP". IS Ironfang Invasion the fabled War AP?

Silver Crusade RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 32

Have you ever played any of D. Vincent Baker's games (e.g. Dogs in the Vineyard, Apocalypse World) or other games that "hack" Apocalypse World's rules (e.g. Dungeon World, Monsterhearts)? If so, what do you think of the ones you've read or played?

Humbled and vaguely frightened. A little bit nauseous. I hate asking for handouts, and my father gave me a lecture about begging for money when he saw the fundraiser. We aren't not a family that accepts charity.

It is not. Not the way you're probably thinking, at least. Ironfang Invasion is largely about guerilla warfare and rallying allies and marshaling resources, rather than commanding armies.

I would not bank on a "war AP" happening until we have a heavily revised system for mass combat.

I want to, but I have not. I've had very little time for reading or gaming the past few years

That actually sounds like how our home group approached Rise of the Runelords, despite being the 'Heroes' of Sandpoint (and later Magnimar, Turtleback Ferry, Varisia, Golarion, etc).

We couldn't help ourselves, we wanted to make sure that any community we left while continuing the AP could at least handle themselves 'a little bit' against the sort of stuff we were running against, because it wouldn't be responsible, otherwise...

I'm now really looking forward to this.

Everybody keeps saying that. I'm not sure if I should be sad I never had a chance to read red Hand of Doom, or if I should be grateful so no one can accuse me of ripping it off.

HA.

To be fair, though, that's kinda the same thing I did with large chunks of Curse of the Crimson Throne and Serpent's Skull, which were respectively each sort of adapted from 1/3 of a campaign I ran for players back in the early 2000s set in my homebrew world. The third third of that campaign, the high-level one, is unlikely to ever become an AP since it involved exiled proto-gods using the soul-corpses of fallen angels to assassinate the children of the ancient deities who exiled them to the far side of death.

I missed the announcement because I'm not on social media, but I would have donated to the cause!

Usually *something* happens the month right before GenCon that's really expensive and takes money out of my budget for it, but I've gotten used to it and plan for it compulsively, so...

I've no idea how your thread just dropped off my radar! I realized I didn't wish you Happy July 4th! So... happy belated July 4th! Hope you had an awesome day! Anything you did in particular?

As the author of the Bellflower Network article, which deity tends toward to find the most followers among that organization? Cayden Cailean? Milani? Desna?

I was going to hold off on saying anything, we're all mortal, after all, and the 'statute of limitations' on correcting posts (barring amazing mod powers) is an hour, right?

I haven't had 'amazing mod powers' in quite some time now...but I'm feeling like I missed something here. I consider Crystal a friend, and I was just trying to be supportive and encourage her to be happy that there are so many people that care about her and are willing to pitch in. Or was it merely grammar I assaulted in some way?

To get back on the theme of questions, what upcoming Paizo products are you most excited about?

If you are confused by the bird's post, it's because it was a reply to me, not to you. In fact, your own post was removed from the quotation chain within the bird's post.

Nothing much. We've had a few stressful weeks, so the wife and I just collapsed on the couch. She bought a brand new smoker that weekend because she's addicted to good barbecue and can't find it very reliably in Washington state, and she spent the day testing it out on ribs and pork loin.

They're all good choices. The Bellflower Network isn't an especially pious organization, so any faiths inside it are largely the personal beliefs of members rather than official sponsors, and with Golarion being pantheistic, a member can pray to any or all of those patrons for different reasons.

Between the three, Desna probably has more dedicated worshipers than Cayden or Milani, given the organization's especial focus on travel, with Cayden being second and Milani being a distant third (as the Bellflower Network is much more invested in safety and freedom than revolution). There are probably as many or more dedicated worshipers of Chaldira Zuzaristan, the halfling god of luck and perseverance, as there are of Desna.
