    Assassins: Is Neutral okay?

    Right, but I thought it may be enlightening to show James Jacob's explanation for why it's written as evil in Pathfinder and also that those who utilize non-evil ones have a case. As an aside, but speaking of using ninjas as spies, as I recall you also make the case for them historically being...

    Assassins: Is Neutral okay?

    Heh. For what it's worth, I think it speaks volumes that you're willing to admit it, dust yourself off, and continue on in a friendly and polite manner. As it is, I realized after I made that post that in Pathfinder terms, the "must be evil" was a wobbly leg for me and one that I concede...

    Is it WotC’s responsibility to bring people to the hobby?

    Responsibility to bring people into the hobby? No. But it is in their business interests to do so.

    Kickstarter Too many Kickstarter projects? Is Kickstarter the new d20 glut?

    To date I've only backed 2 projects - and they were done by people who'd released products before. The gaming related project was for a city mapping program by Inkwell, who has released a number of other mapping software programs and I knew that part of my pledge would fund the purchase of some...

    Does it qualify?

    I believe this is correct. The rules tend to explicitly state what the requirements are, thus I don't think you can use a longsword with SoS and PA, even if wielded two-handed.

    Pathfinder 1E Prepping for Pathfinder: Kingmaker (spoilers!)

    I used a laptop running Hexographer with a map of the Stolen Lands while gaming to keep track of things. For the first module, flesh out the not-soon-to-be-dead NPCs - they will very likely make up part of the council in coming modules, so best to introduce them as living, breathing NPCs early...

    A few noobish questions, PF

    From Wizard and the core book under "Wizard". The firer chooses which they target and then roll to hit or miss as usual. The only exception I can think of off hand is if the firer is targeting one of them and the other is in the way (providing cover) - see...

    Pathfinder 1E [Combat Tracker] DM Minion for Pathfinder

    I'd say at the absolute minimum, it'd have to have all of the features available in Combat Manager (Combat Manager). That aside, without an Android version, I doubt I'd be in your intended audience.

    Is the cleric's "Channeling" ability a mistake?

    I will never, never, never go back to that worthless mechanic known as "Turn Undead".

    Cleaving: Are a horse and rider "adjacent"?

    Note the difference between the two: Cleave merely states the requirement to be that a foe that is adjacent to the first and also within [your] reach. Nowhere does it state adjacent squares, thus I think you can safely disregard that argument against being able to cleave when two foes occupy...

    Wanted - RPG Writer (Roman)

    I'd say you'll have the same issues with freelancers as over in your Celtic writer recruiting post, i.e. carte blanche rights to the submitted essay for nothing in return, guarantee of pay, and clearly defined payscale. Additionally, as was pointed out in that thread and this one, you need to...

    D&D 5E Are you happy with D&D Next so far?

    So far? Yes. Need to see more to commit. That, I think, is the key. The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.

    Pathfinder 1E Sticker shock, or Why Paizo and Other Online Vendors have sent me back to Mead

    Secondly, yes, Amazon will ship free under certain circumstances, but those do not include where a third party lists it as in this case. In other ways, if it's not Amazon shipping it, then no.

    Pathfinder 1E Sticker shock, or Why Paizo and Other Online Vendors have sent me back to Mead

    First a quick reply, as I came across a Paizo thread where Vic addressed this same complaint: http://paizo.com/products/btpy8bkr/discuss&page=2?GameMastery-Combat-Pad#58 I get it and I get that it is what it is (I guess), but it means that there's no way in Hell I'd ever buy it. And that's a...

    Sexism and presumed sexism in RPGs

    It's been often mused, but I wonder if Marilyn Monroe would have made it into a modern publication.

    Pathfinder 1E Sticker shock, or Why Paizo and Other Online Vendors have sent me back to Mead

    So I decided to buy Paizo's wonderful Combat Pad. Naturally, I decided to peruse Paizo's Store and purchase said item. It's $20, nothing unusual there. However, I ran into a slight problem that I couldn't seem to overcome. Um, no. Look, I get that shipping isn't free these days (not even...

    Pathfinder 1E [JBE] Major Pathfinder Announcement

    I didn't see it in my HL list, so I do appreciate you making the .hl available separately. I likely won't be able to participate in this year's Free RPG Day, but please allow me to congratulate you on this year's addition you've made. And on a selfish note as a Hero Lab user, I'd like to also...

    Looking for advice/ideas on running Kingmaker

    This, this, and this. KM was my first adventuring path and I really wish someone like IronWolf had simply told me to handle xp that way. And as for the other modules, it's your (your DM's) game, but those modules interjected into KM will add to the flavor.
