    Adventure Path Monster Stat Blocks

    They do not post the stats for any monsters out of the Bestiary because it's expected that someone DM'ing the AP would have the Bestiary. Also the stats for these monsters can be found for free here: Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Reference Document

    Is D&D "about" combat?

    I voted no. I always felt D&D was about exploration. What was the secret of Bone Hill? What was the even more sinister secret of Saltmarsh? How chaotic are the caves near the Keep on the Borderlands? Wanna risk your life to find treasure on the Isle of Dread? Etc...... Obviously combat is a...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder outselling D&D

    Hmmm…. Let’s see if I can help get this back on track (my apologies in advance if this is a little long-winded) I’m extremely happy that Paizo and Pathfinder are doing so well. Not just because I’m a Pathfinder player but also because their business model fits my gaming needs so well. I cut my...

    City building

    Falcon's Hollow, if it's based in the Inner Sea in your campaign, is run by The Lumber Consortium. The Consortium is a company which has a monopoly on the hardwood and darkwood lumber industry in the country of Andoran. In Falcon's Hollow, with few exceptions, the buildings and their inhabitants...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder outselling D&D

    I find that people who make sweeping generalizations about other groups of people are awful. Go figure....

    Pathfinder 1E Golarion Setting Discussion

    You illustrated what I really like about the setting, and kitchen sink settings in general (when they are well done). If you want to develop a jungle campaign, it's all there for you. Feel like stopping a demon invasion, travel to the WorldWound. Want to get your pharoah's and sphinxes on, punch...

    Favorite/Hated Race - and Why?

    Favorite: It's a toss up between Human and Dwarf. Humans because of the wide range of character types to play. Dwarfs because they are a force of nature that asks for and gives no quarter. My group is starting the Serpent Skull Pathfinder AP next week and we are all playing dwarfs from the same...

    Something, I think, Every GM/DM Should Read

    I'm sorry. I'm just trying to wrap my head around the fact that your player cried foul over a creature being in the wrong terrain instead of his character being incredibly curious about a wyvern being so far from home? I mean where's the sense of adventure and discovery. Is the minutia of the...

    So it's finally happened? D&D reduced to board games...

    Back in the early 80s my first exposure to D&D was watching my father play with his fellow engineers at our house. Obviously it sparked the imagination of this player at the age 0f 8 or 9. I wanted D&D for Christmas and it was certainly starting to explode into the mainstream at that time. My...

    WotC, really? No...really? You can't maintain a publishing schedule?

    As someone who used to work at a monthly magazine our content was planned well in advance, I mean 8-12 months in a lot of cases. This not only helped the editorial staff but the advertising sales staff as well.

    The Adventure Paths: The Best Ones Are?

    One in particular that comes right to mind is from the second module in The Council of Thieves AP. It's called The Six Fold Trial and one chapter is devoted to a death play titled "The Six Trials of Larazod." What is a death play you may ask? Imagine acting in front of an audience with a chance...

    D&D 3E/3.5 How can I convert my 3.5e group to Pathfinder?

    For price concerns check out d20pfsrd.com. All the rules for free. Paizo is not a third party publisher of Pathfinder, they are THE publisher of Pathfinder using the 3.5e ruleset as a jumping point. As for Paizo products being unbalanced gamebreakers I haven't seen anything they have...

    3.5 1st level adventure for 10 yr old DM

    I highly recommend Hollow's Last Hope by Paizo. It's a 16 page PDF and it's free. Interesting story. Gives the characters a very good reason to be heroic and I think a 10 year old would be able to run it with little difficulty. Link: http://paizo.com/store/paizoExclusives/v5748btpy82r0

    Save or Die: Yea or Nay?

    It's like when I tell my wife that she looks very nice today and she responds "Oh so I didn't look nice yesterday!?!" ;) Until I started reading message boards I never knew that SoDs where so despised. Who knows, maybe it's a generational thing. My group's been playing D&D a long time and Save...

    What would WotC need to do to win back the disenchanted?

    At this point there is nothing they can do to win my group back. Each player in my group has been playing various iterations of D&D for a long time now and 3.5 was our sweet spot. As long time Realms players, the great work done with the Realms during 3ed was perfect for us. We tried 4th ed. It...

    Pathfinder 1E What project would you like Paizo to tacke next for Pathfinder?

    I voted Asia-Themed rules but it's more all-encompassing than that. The Inner Sea is just a very small part of the world. I'm hoping as time goes on they open up more parts of the Golarian - like an Asian-themed area, with new "stuff" (classes, feats, traits, themes, items) etc. so that the...

    I need a 9th level adventure!

    I ran my my group through this Dungeon Mag scenario a few years ago. It might be something you can sculpt into your camapign. And it''s only $5 via PDF download. It's called the The Fall of Graymalkin Academy: http://paizo.com/store/brand/dungeon/issues/2006/140

    Necromancer Games' Clark Peterson swears off 4E, says "Pathfinder is the D&D I love"

    To be fair, he made his declaration on the Paizo Pathfinder boards to an audience that would be happy to learn he is playing Pathfinder. That declaration was repeated here by the OP. It looks like he didn't plan on posting this on the EnWorld general forum for obvious reasons. There are...

    Red Sox Life-long Sox fan. We've lost 8 straight againts the A's in the playoffs. One ghost exorcised. We never beat the Yankees. Two ghosts exorcised. Cubs-Red Sox in the World Series. Well, someone's got to win it. Third ghost exorcised. Red Sox Win!

    Why I Love Being the DM

    The whole shock and awe thing is what I live for as a DM. Speaker In Dreams SPOILER AHEAD! In the final battle as the evil Mindflayer is revealed to be the one involved in all of the behind-the-scenes machinations in Brindinford, the look on my players faces as the realize that they...
