There's a brand new Pathfinder 2E playtest in the wild, and it contains an old favourite and a new arrival -- the Gunslinger and Inventor classes! The playtest is live now, and runs until February 5th. Gunslinger -- " This is a brand-new version of an old favorite: the gunslinger has been rebuilt from the ground up with new subclasses and abilities unique to Pathfinder Second Edition...
This week, I review a variety of RPG crowdfunding projects and quickstarters that end by January 14th. There are a number of original systems on the list this week as well as some solid 5e adventures. This article should drop just before Christmas Eve so, if you celebrate the holiday, have a great one.
If you're looking for a good Christmas gift for a Paizo fan (or for yourself!) both Starfinder and Pathfinder 2E are available in Pocket Edition format. Both books (528 and 640 pages respectively) are softcover. The Starfinder book is $19.99 and the Pathfinder 2E book is $29.99. Sizewise, you'd need a fairly large pocket; they're about 6.5 inches by 8.5 inches, and fairly hefty. But they're...
Become a US Marshal in the Old West, a wandering sellsword and would be king, or a lizard pirate. Explore worlds of fantasy, the Old West, the 1980s, and high society. And fantasy is not just for murder hobos anymore, you can also play as a bird pirate, king, or business wizard.
Pinnacle Entertainment Group has announced that it will be bringing Paizo's Pathfinder adventurer paths to Savage Worlds, starting with Rise of the Runelords. They will be launching a Kickstarter in January 2021. The Kickstarter includes a core ruleset called Savage Pathfinder, and a Rise of the Runelords boxed set. It’s Thanksgiving here in the United States. For our international...
This week’s RPG crowdfunding projects and quickstarters end on or before December 10th. Due to the number of RPG campaigns rolling out right now, I’m unable to cover every one, and I hate that. As I can, I try to give the spotlight to as many as possible, whether that spotlight be coverage in this column or interviews here, d20 Radio, or High Level Games, shout outs on my social media. For all...
Pathfinder 2nd Edition has received its 2nd printing, and with it comes its 2nd set of errata. Here's five of the changes straight from the horse's (err, goblin's) mouth! All classes increase their unarmed attack proficiency along with their weapons. Alchemists gain a scaling item DC without taking a feat and can make more of their field specialty items at 1st level, instead of 5th. They...
Paizo has announced Lost Omens: Mwangi Expanse for June 2021, a setting sourcebook which delves into an African-themed area of Golarion. At over 300 pages, the book also includes six new ancestries -- Anadi, Conrasu, Gnoll, Goloma, Grippli, and Shisk. It will be followed by the Strength of Thousands adventure path, where you play students at the Magaambya magic academy in the Mwangi Expanse.
Paizo has launched the public playtest for two new classes which will be appearing in July 2021's Secrets of Magic. The playlets runs until October 16th. The magus combines spells with attacks. The classic concept of the warrior-mage hybrid lives here. The test will show whether this class outshines martial characters or spellcasters, or whether it balances its two sides in a satisfying way...
The Definitive Edition of the Pathfinder Kingmaker video game is now available on Playatation 4 and Xbox One. The wild and dangerous Stolen Lands lie in the northern reaches of the River Kingdoms, realms ripe for the taking! Yet those who would become rulers of these new lands will soon learn that claiming a kingdom and keeping it are two different beasts. Can the heroes protect their...
With two new classes - the Magus (a fighter/mage type) and the Summoner which bonds with an eidolon which advances along with the Summoner - Secrets of Magic is coming to Pathfinder 2E next year. There will be a playtest from September 7th through to October. Not much else was revealed about the book at the (virtual) Gen Con panel where it ws announced by Paizo's Erik Mona.
The pandemic-mandated online version of Gen Con is going on right now, and many companies traditionally use the event for big releases. The fact that it's online isn't holding Paizo back as they release their new products, including the Advanced Player's Guide for Pathfinder and the Starship Operations Manual for Starfinder. The Advanced Player's Guide includes new four classes -- the...
The Complete Character Chronicle is a new product coming to Kickstarter from Beadle & Grimm (those people who make those expensive D&D boxed sets). What if you could have a single book that contained everything about one character, from birth to death? It would need to be part journal, part character record, part scrapbook, and would also need to contain the key reference pages from all the...
All of these RPG crowdfunding projects end by August 13th. This week, while there are more than a dozen RPGs and dice options, I kept the focus on four projects, one RPG/board game hybrid, two sourcebooks for established properties, and one that offers a lot of bang for your buck.
This article features RPG crowdfunding projects that end by August 6th. EN Publishing’s Mythological Figures & Maleficent Monsters for 5th Edition headlines this article because of its prominence among the current batch of projects including other D&D offerings and games with original systems like Monster Care Squad, Necronautilus, WAIT FOR ME, When Shadows Fall, and more.
