    Pathfinder 1E What's good what's not in PF?

    That Aura of Justice is great but actually doesn't strike me as so bad due to the 2 uses and 1 min duration (although that's 10 rounds I guess). Hmmm. Chances we'll get much past 10th are pretty small I think, but things to look out for. I found 14th level plus got boring in 3.5 but that was...

    Pathfinder 1E What's good what's not in PF?

    That's exactly what I'm trying to get my head around! One thing I've been discussing over at RPG.net is the effect of removing summoning spells from the game (any thoughts here also appreciated) as the cosmology I have in mind doesn't involve celestial servants of the gods. I don't think it...

    Pathfinder 1E What's good what's not in PF?

    I've never had a barbarian player so it probably won't come up but when you say nix do you mean remove entirely?

    Say what now? How can a paladin do that? Also, I missed the glossary: what is rocket tag? You mean a bit luck of the draw?

    Pathfinder 1E What's good what's not in PF?

    Hi there. I was a long term 3/3.5 DM who has spent the last 5 years or so playing other things (older versions of D&D, CoC, WFRP, DCCRPG etc). It's time for a change and I was thinking of PF. What I am wondering (having been browsing the SRD) is if there is anything outside of the core book (or...

    RPGs and mental health issues

    I game with friends - some of my friends have issues, some don't. When I've played with non-friends (or people who are not yet friends) I've followed some rules that another (gamer) friend once gave me: People you spend time with socially (incl. gaming) should have 2 of the following 3 things...

    Monte's L&L columns

    I don't think his leaving is a direct result of the columns either. But I wanted to get people's opinions on them.

    Heard? Heard from where? Come on - that sort of speculation isn't helpful.

    Monte's L&L columns

    I've got nothing for Monte or against him especially. I liked what he said in L&L but a lot of the Malhavoc stuff was way to complex/high magic for my tastes. But I found the idea that this all came because the fans hated him interesting so wanted to get to the bottom of it.

    Monte's L&L columns

    I had sort of assumed it was vocal 4e fans who feel they are being abandoned who made the comments. I'm not a 4e player so I've got nothing to lose here. Either 5e is awesome and I play that, or it's not and I play what I currently play (CoC, homebrewed systems, ocassional 1e games, board games...

    Monte's L&L columns

    So I was reading the thread about Monte leaving and a number of people wondered if the fan reaction to Monte's Legends & Lore columns might have had something to do with his departure. I have to admit, I haven't been following 53 development that closely but I read a few and don't rememebr...

    Non-North American Gamers who want to buy the 1e reprints, sound off!

    Did anyone figure out why they're limiting it to North America anyway?

    Non-North American Gamers who want to buy the 1e reprints, sound off!

    The wrding is "Available in limited quantities as a hobby channel exclusive in North America." You could read it as 'but outside of the US you'll be able to buy them in chain stores' but I think that would be wishful thinking. Especially as you can only buy D&D in the hobby channel outside of...

    Non-North American Gamers who want to buy the 1e reprints, sound off!

    I should say that I actually have all the 1e core books - in fact I seem to have ended up with three DMGs. I don't have a Fiend Folio or either survival guide but I've got everything else in the hardback book range. Anyone want to swap a DMG for a FF?

    Well, they've said 'hobby channel'. That means game stores. So no, no Amazon or anywhere similar.

    WotC to Release 1st Edition Premium Core Rulebooks Reprints

    http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/316949-non-north-american-gamers-who-want-buy-1e-reprints-sound-off.html I made a thread to record interest in the reprints outside of the US. Maybe we should start a petition or something?
