I've already posted this on the Paizo product page discussion, but there appears to be a problem with the Hero Lab file. It causes Hero Lab to crash whenever you attempt to import it: EDIT: For everyone else thinking of purchasing this, I've only had a little bit of time to look over it but...

I completely agree. I run my whole group's character sheets through Hero Lab. That leaves no questions about character legality. I like it when computers do the work for me and all my players like it too.

Next time he casts the illegal magnetic spell, give him a 50% chance of being body checked by the target of the spell for 2d6 damage to both characters or something else arbitrary (in addition to severely damaging his casting hand for 1d4 days). If he does get body checked, there could be an...

The Hero Lab editor definitely has a learning curve (which I'm still on). I would not call it user friendly, but it's doable.

As others have said, Hero Lab works great for character creation and management. There's also Combat Manager, which makes setting up and running combat fairly simple. It's free and better (in my opinion) than Hero Lab's Tactical Console (which provides similar functionality).

The pre-Pathfinder APs (eg, Second Darkness which I'm running now) must be run on fast progression in order to work, so you may just want to go that route. Of course, you also have to do some minor tweaking to make them Pathfinder-compatible (Spot -> Perception, etc). You would definitely have...

I'm very optimistic, if only because it sounds like they'll support the classic Forgotten Realms setting, pre-Spell Plague). Killing the Forgotten Realms really turned me off and started me on the path to finding a completely new game. WoTC needs to bring back the Forgotten Realms and start...

I joined this site just to reply to this article. I agree that the TRPG market is contracting and has been since at least the mid-late 90s. My first experience in RPGs was with AD&D when one of my friends and his older brother allowed me to sit in on one of their sessions and play a character...
