If I'm doing anything more elaborate than running a module straight (which rarely happens), I find I put in time on a one-for-one basis - about 4 hours of work for 4 hours of gaming. It's mostly NOT the nuts and bolts, it's just figuring everything out - the story/plot, getting setting details...

Neat, thanks!

Thanks for the samples!

Rhun, could you do a bit of a side-by-side comparison of a monster or two from the bonus bestiary? AC, attack bonus, 3.5 grapple vs. Pathfinder CMB, just some numbers for comparison purposes would be very illuminating.

Books: Let's see ... finished reading Swords & Deviltry, on to Swords Against Death. Also dug into the Bard's Gate city sourcebook for my D&D campaign. Audiobooks: Finished listening to Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, blasted through Rendezvous with Rama, and am now in the middle of The...

I hope we get to see Fry and Leela as a couple - I think there's some potential comedy there. We've already seen Bender's reaction to Fry moving out for a chick, so maybe they'll go a different direction and have Leela move in with Fry and Bender. I could see Leela and Bender not being...

I'm sure Russ will get right on that.

Crap, now I gotta consider getting cable! Unless they end up selling episodes on Itunes or something...

Leiber's good for getting a sense of what Gygax and Arneson had going through their heads when they were inventing D&D - I think that's what I am finding most entertaining, ultimately.

Back into Swords & Deviltry (Fritz Leiber). Keeping my attention better the 2nd time around.

Nice, a very good starting point. Thank you!

Whatever the reason it's good news. :)

Paizo is pretty much my one and only these days. I enjoy getting a fairly steady stream of RPG stuff from them. A subscription means I sometimes end up with things I might not use, but on the other hand it means free PDFs of my subscription items, which is very handy.

Has anyone created a resource like this... I would like a list of bare bones monster stats for CRs 1-20. One set of stats for each CR. It would help answer the question "what are appropriate values for AC, attack bonus, damage, saves, skills for a particular CR." It could also be used to...

For campaign notes, there are sort of three directions I go... 1) I prepare a campaign guide for myself, and then an edited version for the players, plus a map for myself and an edited map for the players. See this page for a sample of the player's version of the guide and player's map for my...

Oh, man ... sorry to hear that.

Listening to Pride & Prejudice & Zombies as an audiobook. I find myself zoning out a lot during the non-zombie parts. It's starting to get more interesting though. Not reading a book at the moment. Gotta remedy that!

But what's different is the size modifier, right? Or at least it was in an early version of PF. It would be handy to have a little conversion chart (for large creature with a published Grapple modifier, subtract 3 to get the CMB or whatever). A lot of DMs are good at remembering this sort of...

Agreed; and hopefully there will be other conversion notes (particularly what you have to do to 3.5 monsters and NPCs to "Pathfinerize" them - generating/calculaing the Combat Maneuver Bonus, for example, to replace Grapple etc.).
