A little back-of-the-envelope math reveals that Pathfinder doesn't push out nearly the amount of hardcovers that 3E/3.5 did. A quick glance at my own bookshelf reveals ninety-seven 3E/3.5 hardcovers published over approximately eight years and twenty Pathfinder hardcovers published to date. If...

5 out of 5 rating for Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook Pathfinder is extremely good at what it does, but it's not every game for every group (nor does it try to be). The Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook is comprehensive. The character creation options are detailed enough to create nearly any...

Howdy GalanDur! I did some work for a d20 Modern version of it a few years ago. It's in that nebulous half-finished state that many dropped RPG projects are, but I do recall that I have the STARS team statted out from the first game and at least notes on what several other characters should be...

Count me amongst those who want some Greyhawk... But then again, maybe not. I was glad that there was no 4E Greyhawk after seeing what happened to the Forgotten Realms setting. I've been able to get by with my older Greyhawk material in the Pathfinder era. Still, it'd be nice to get some things...

Inspired by this thread, I started counting my books a few minutes ago. I stopped counting the second time I lost track. It was over seven hundred then and I had just finished with the official D&D stuff and started moving into the third party publishers. (I hadn't even started on the non-D&D...

Howdy! I'm new to Marietta and looking for a group. I'm ideally interested in Pathfinder, but I'll consider various editions of D&D. I might also be interested in a game set in the classic World of Darkness (Wraith, Vampire, or Mage), but the group really has to be right for those games...

I'm a Pathfinder fan. Going to start a new campaign in about two weeks and I can't wait!

Yeah, there'll be varieties of humans. Here's a brief idea of what I'm talking about: the different nationalities of humans that I've worked up so far.

After several months of steady freelance work, I'm taking a bit of time to work on the ol' homebrew again. I keep returning to an issue that I've ran into with D&D settings over the years. In short, I'd like to make a setting where humans were the only race available as a PC option--no elves...

Howdy JDragon! I'm going to move to the Atlanta metro area this summer, I won't be there until around June or so. But I'd love to connect with a new group before I get there! I'm in a similar situation as you (mid-thirties, 20+ years experience, prefer Pathfinder). As far as housing, me and my...

Vampire: the Masquerade Published by White Wolf, currently supported under the Onyx Path imprint. It's a great game, and one of the very few games that I've never gotten tired of at one point or another. Strengths: The game's setting is essentially the "real" world with a few occult...

Just a thought... I don't know if I'd count it as a "major" difference, but one of the things I really like about Pathfinder is how the skills are consolidated. For instance, Balance, Jump, and Tumble were all folded into the Acrobatics skill. Hide and Move Silently are now Stealth, Open Lock...

As a GM, I love non-linear thinking, but it tends to drive certain GMs/DMs up the wall. In a Greyhawk game I played in very early 3E, I was playing a wizard with a mostly rogue and bard group that worked for the thieves' guild in the City of Greyhawk. The campaign was essentially our...

Unfortunately, I've been in the situation of dis-inviting several people over the past few years--I've seen everything from terrible hygiene issues to playing WoW on the laptop at the table to blatant/creepy sexual advances. Even in groups where I'm not the GM, I usually get the task because I...

It was better than I thought it'd be--but then again, the first two D&D movies didn't exactly set the bar very high. I've got to admit, I'd like to see what this story could've been with a bit higher budget and some big-name actors.

Yeah, I "moved on" about 2010. Pathfinder is my D&D of choice now. I've kept abreast of the 5E developments and have been downloading the playtest packets and all that jazz, but bluntly, I'm just not all that invested in being part of a massive effort to playtest the new edition. Why? First...

Well... If you go by "encumbrance points," I think the easiest solution would be to simply say that you can carry a number of EP equal to your Strength score as a light load (without penalties of any sort). You can carry up to twice your EP as a medium load (with some mild penalty), and up to...

I don't have a problem with Kickstarter. I don't really care how products are financed, and I've tossed a few dollars into a kickstarter project here and there myself. Nevertheless, I voted yes. The phrasing of the poll, "self-promotion," perfectly describes several posts I've seen and even...
