    Pathfinder 1E 1st time to Pathfinder, Class choice?

    Alright here are my current stats Str-12 Dex-20 Con-12 Int-17 Wis-8 Cha-11 I put my 8 in wisdom for mostly roleplaying reasons, will that come back and bite me? Also my DM gave me a free +2 to any stat i chose for being a Kobold and i put it in CON for a slight health advantage, although with...

    Running a morally ambiguous game in a world where Alignment is real

    I can't remember where I read this but I'm pretty sure it was from a 3.5 book, but one thing you could do to make detect alignment spells work is by basically detecting thoughts or past actions essentially, When someone commits murder, anyone that detects alignment might sense evil from him...

    Pathfinder 1E 1st time to Pathfinder, Class choice?

    Well i've decided to go with Vivisectionist Kobold, with a crazy doctor personality, The only problem i foresee is the poisons and how they work, the dm decided to half all the prices of the poisons, and make the saves harder to make does this seem like it would make poisons useful? And don't...

    Training peasants to fight

    Excellent points on Orc, drow, and ogre armies, got to say I didn't really think of those However for undead, realistically, battles were not fights to the death, battles would only last as long as one sides would be willing to fight until they gave up hope, but undead have the numbers, and are...

    Training peasants to fight

    Its completely plausible, in the Medieval ages, peasants made up the bulk of the armies, actually most didn't even receive training, and just had whatever weapons and armor they owned when called by their king to fight. However it would only work if the enemy army was also made up of lowly...

    Dungeons & Discourse: Atheism (and related)

    in my usual games, its basically impossible for people to not know that the "gods" exist, and in that case disbelieve them so an "Atheist" or the equivalent in my games are people that recognize that these beings exist and that people generally worship them, however they don't them as gods, but...

    High-Tech Forces vs. High-Magic Forces

    Well, considering nukes, we have to remember that 1 in 20 of our nukes that we launch will probably explode in their silos

    I don't know what just happend, but it seems that Ayn Rand corrupted my player!

    I meant nothing in contempt, meant it more as sarcastic tone, I know other people have their own prefrences, however in my group a save reload system is regarded as a joke, and would be considered wussy, and until the OP posts the other players point of view or the player himself says anything...

    I don't know what just happend, but it seems that Ayn Rand corrupted my player!

    Ask your players if they would also like to play without dice, after all it would be sad if one of them made a poor decision and things wrong, Also remove combat from the game, no one wants to get hit and cry Maybe they can run a nice safe tavern, where none of the bad guys can hurt them, and...

    Guns in a fantasy setting

    In my Spelljammer game i have firearms, however the players are loath to use them and only the Dwaves use them I home ruled the arquebus to be more like the flintlock pistol Where the flintlock pistol rolls only a D4 for damage, if you roll a 4 you roll again for damage so for the rifle i...

    Help on thinking up an ancient creature race.

    I don't know if you have the 3.5 sandstorm book but in the book there is an evil race called the Mirluka or something to that effect that are basically Anubis like dog people, but the Anubis dog theme sticks with the eygptian god Anubis Or maybe a race of sentient cats? It may sound silly but...

    "Oh god what is that!"

    I've had a few of these moments with my PC's, I guess its because i really enjoy throwing seemingly impossible targets at them for fun Probably the best one was Spelljammer when the PC's were level 4, or 3 i can't really remember they were hired by a Dwarven Scavanger's guild to help clear out...

    Pirates and encounter ideas for Spelljammer

    Hello everyone! recently in my Spelljammer campaign i realized that i'm lacking in actual Spelljammer content, mostly the PC's have been flying to places, planets and stations, doing ground based adventures. So in an effort to add more Spelljamming content to my game, i need to increase the...

    This is how I run my...

    For my spelljammer campaign i've made a few changes to the races -Dwarves cannot use arcane magic, and instead use technology to emulate the other races magic, and thus the dwarves use rifles and cannons with their spelljamming ships -High Elves are shorter lived then normal elves, have lawful...

    Your experiences with Spelljammer?

    Out of all the campaigns i've ever run, my Spelljammer campaign is as decided by my players, my best campaign yet. It was definitely my most favorite to make, there is little things better then fighting a Black Dragon in a space-born Bireme

    Advice for free-form infiltration scenario

    I actually had a similar dungeon thing, that involved the PC's sneaking in to a BBEG base and i was able to get the exposition across without having to have the PC's captured. They just snuck into the room the BBEG was giving his grand, "We are going to take over the world" speech to a crowd of...

    Making campaign settings promote better roleplaying/character interaction

    Although personally i don't really like historical role-playing games, i see your point, our groups finest actual character role-playing was when our DM described our home country as Germanic, and we all adopted German names and accents, Good times
