Yeah and going about broke, too! Rappan Athuk Kickstarter, The Slumbering Tsar Series, Razor Coast Kickstarter and a few other odds and ends. The only thing I buy from Paizo is rulebooks.

I guess that makes me older that dirt:eek: at 56! My players are of all ages and average in their mid-late 30's. Seriously, I don't have an issue with AP, just I have gotten used to a more 1E style of DMing that Necromancer/FGG designs their modules for. I have enough settings now that I have...

Well I have to say I never played in High School, but they didn't come up with the game until after I graduated so guess I have an excuse!

Exactly, last game the party ran into 2 Gugs that killed 3 of 9 of their number because they got down to a level that was too deep for them. This week they will explore easier pickings and half will rescue one of their number before heading off to The Slumbering Tsar. FGG just released the first...

Yeah its been that long, at least. Clark sent me copies back in 2002 and I have been running one version or another off and on since. Speaking of the Dark Tower, I did the 3.5 conversion for Goodman Games back in 2007. We did 3 of them for Goodman. http://www.goodman-games.com/judgesguild.html...

Not really. The problem with black powder fouling is that it gets worse with each round fired so the affects are cumulative and eventually you run the risk of the weapon just blowing up on you which actually did happen with early weapons. You really need to run a patch through it every few...

From Wikepedia: So even with crack troops we still aren't getting to 1 shot/round. And nowhere in the rules has it taken into account the affect of fouling!

A human archer, Lars Anderson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zGnxeSbb3g He shows what is possible with a bow with every possible feat.

I don't have an issue perse of big boss encounters, but they should not be a stopping point for the campaign. The players should be able to recognize an encounter too tough for them to handle and be prepared to live to fight another day. There should be other opportunities for them to gain the...

Well Scotley I run Rappan Athuk and The Slumbering Tsar. In 6 months the dead number 10 so far. Still want to play?

Well I am currently running the latest version of Rappan Athuk and the Slumbering Tsar Saga. Will be adding the Razor Coast to it when it comes out in the spring. I think that should keep the players busy for at least the next several years as I have about 2000 pages to draw on. When I need to...

And? Orcus and the end of Rappan Athuk is AC 55, but he is not meant to be defeated.

It is not the firing of the weapons I find unrealistic, but the reloading. I can name at least 10 shooters that can fire 10 pistol, 10 rifle and 4 shot gun against 24 targets w/o a miss in less than 20 seconds with 4 guns with the equivalent of the modern firearms. Also Lars showed that he could...

I run pretty much non-TSR/WOTC/Paizo modules. I prefer third party be it Judges Guild, Necromancer or Frog God Games. So I have never run an Adventure Path. My wife started running Carrion Crown but that didn't work out too well. The party wasn't interested in solving puzzles or doing any...

The game does seem to involve waves. It is unclear at what stage Pathfinder is at present. My guess it has yet to crest, but we will see when D&D Next comes out.

I would forgo the last. In another episode, it shows Sharpe training them to do a Rapid Reload to get that 3 rounds per minutes so yes I would presume the rapid reload feat. It is historical also based on the fire rates of the Revolutionary War. The fire rate for a musket was 3/min and 2/min for...

We made the system playable and even fun within its own right, it just wasn't D&D to us. If I had my choice I would go back to 3.5 but I can't see my players going back now.

To each his own I guess. I can see some settings where a Gunslinger may be appropriate, just not in most traditional settings IMHO. Now if you are playing an Eberron type setting all bets are off. To me it was not a good idea to add gunpowder to a D&D type ruleset. Pathfinder is licensed under...

I made the switch around August myself, but cannot say it is all for the best. I am yet to be convinced but it seems to be where most of the players are today. We tried 4E for about 6 months and didn't like it much. Have no plans to even look at D&D last.

Well I can't do anything until I get my post count back up so that I can post links.
