I'm trying to figure out why we're talking about those guys as spokes people for any form of gaming. Why not try to expand in all directions by showing that roleplaying is hip as well as diverse by bringing in popular females? Selena Gomez, Ashley Tisdale, or any of the other popular Disney...

Oddly enough, I was trying to figure this out the other day. Though I'm wanting to do more than d20 rolls.

History in Miniatures is proud to announce that the fall Fields of Honor in Des Moines, Iowa will be held the weekend of September 24-26th at Stoney Creek Inn in the suburb of Johnston. The convention features historical miniatures, Warhammer 40k, roleplaying (including Pathfinder Society)...

Paizo's Pathfinder Gamemastery Guide, while geared for Pathfinder actually has a huge portion of intro material for new GMs and suggestions for veterans. Highly recommend it.

Wizards of the Coast today announced that their contract with Drizzt Do’Urden, their most popular leading character in their best selling Forgotten Realms novels, is due to expire effective August 5, 2010. Future publication of Forgotten Realms novels including Drizzt Do’Urden will cease unless...

When I say home rules, I mean just that. We actually calculated how much money you actually would have had to get the normal start setup and you got all of that minus one infantry, factory, and anti air gun. You started only with your capitol. We then built up from there and when you're...

Paizo's Game Mastery Guide has some nice world building stuff in it. Also highly recommended via other sources when I asked this a couple months ago would be Gurps Fantasy and Gurps Space. Each has sections that deal with world design and such. A good Google search using key words "world...

I like that it comes down to what is your priority when dealing with the character. There's still a lot of builds a player might go with that would make taking the extra hit point or skill point more preferable. I also have to agree that if anyone is really arguing the power issue it's got to...

Waxing nostalgic I started thinking about when I gamed back in my navy days and the many off the wall things we did. One of our escapades was tinkering with the rules for Axis & Allies, creating our own home rules and playing free for all games. One of those free for all games found us playing...

Oops, wrong forum. Please ignore.

As has been pointed out by various Paizo staff members it is an optional book and not considered core. I will probably add some, if not all of it, to my campaign, it depends I guess on how I interpret it and if it will fit. I will at least accept the new base classes.

One should also look at the division of those feats. 163 seems like a lot of feats, but when you consider that some of those are team feats. Which means they won't work unless more than one player has the feats. The Cavalier might be king of the team feats, but you still have to convince...

Dragonstar was an interesting fantasy/sci-fi crossover/hybrid. Too bad FFG retired it though I think the writers responsible for it have moved to another company or are doing some independent stuff for it. Still for it's time it was a good attempt though the weapons damage was really off the...

Paizo has said there will be a lot more announced at Gencon, which if it's the same as last year they'll announce everything up through Gencon next year.

Couple other games that could work well with just a GM and player that just crossed my mind. Green Ronin's Blue Rose RPG and True20. Perhaps World of Darkness Innocents. Fantasy Flight Games' Grimm RPG or even the d20 64 page version of it. FFG also put out a couple of other mini campaigns...

Oops, sorry. I didn't look at the link. The PDFs are nice though if you don't have access to the internet all the time.

Another thought occured to me. You might want to get her the book "Confessions of a Part Time Sorceress" from WotC. It's presents gaming from a girls view to girls.

While I haven't mixed all genres I have mixed just about every campaign for D&D thanks to Spelljammer and Planescape. I had a group that had a knight from Krynn, Half-giant from Dark Sun, and a scattering from the various other settings.

If you play 3.x or Pathfinder, Expeditious Retreat has created several 1 on 1 modules for various levels of play. They are designed for one player and one DM/GM. You might also check out Tunnels and Trolls as it was designed to be a solo/low number of players game.

Going back to the OP's concern: You have to remember that it's a free module and not a quick launch book which presents basic rules as well as a short adventure. The module is designed for PF and presented to showcase not just the system, but new character classes from the upcoming Advanced...
