I just finished reading through it. Very, very interesting. Not what I expected; but definitely intriguing. Hopefully; I'll be able to start this sometime after GenCon.

Looking good; I can't wait to run this! I've finished reading through the guide; and the setting is extremely evocative so far. One minor problem I found, though. Under the Authority and the Law section in the Pathfinder guide; the writing there references the DnD fourth edition enemy sub-dual...

I'll echo those sentiments! It's a very well written Adventure Path; and it's been well worth the price. Alas, I have yet to find the time to run it; but hopefully, I will one of these days.

Looking good! I can't wait to get my hands on the first adventure. I really appreciate this; especially after a map with a Shadowrun adventure I'm going to be running, a map that would have been otherwise perfect to hand out to the players as a map for a battle, had a notation on it saying...

Very nice! I've been a little on the fence about this lately; but the information lately have me convinced that this going to be worthwhile for me to pick up a subscription for. And since I'm very likely going to be having a spot open in my schedule in a few months when I shift the Shadowrun...

That's not entirely accurate. Early guns could be blocked by armor of the time. In fact, that's where the term bulletproof comes from. Armorsmiths would shot the armor with the pistol they made to prove that it would resist penetration by bullets.

That's correct; the final session ended with them hitting level 20.

Indeed it is; they were extremely pleased as I read out the list. And when I return to a fantasy campaign, I intend to do exactly that. Same setting, several years or decades down the line.

Sure, though a lot of it probably won't make sense without context. Ask on any point, and I'll happily elucidate: The Society of the Hand is utterly destroyed. Most of their elite are killed in the collapse of the Ice Fortress, and the survivors are destroyed in the following years as they...

Well, as of a few hours ago, the DnD Fourth campaign that I've been running for the last two and a half years has come to it's dramatic conclusion. The Company of the Seven Stars infiltrated the Ice Fortress of the Society of the Hand, and in a tight, and close battle, rescued the Heirs of the...

That... that is incredibly awesome. I am totally going to yoink that idea for the epic tier of my campaign!

I've had great success running a Dark Heresy and (recently) Deathwatch game for a year and a half now using IRC. We'd initially hoped to use map tools, but network issues (one of my players is in China and couldn't connect) prevented it. Honestly though, I've found that removing the nitty...

Well, this Sunday, I had to completely improvise my Fourth Edition DnD session, because of some remarkably good thinking on the part of my players, and I've never been happier. A bit of background: The party, through heroic and paragon tiers, have been fighting the Society of the Hand, a Vecnan...

Woo! Room reserved in the JW Marriott

I'll be there :D It'll be my first time going too.

It hasn't been an issue yet, but in my campaign, if it happened, I'll echo Kitsune9. Let 'em play one of the cohorts or tag alongs in the party until their main character is restored.

Well, that creature seems friendly.

Somewhat related, in a high speed cart chase in my campign, the PCs managed to short circuit half the encounter when the warlock used a slow effect on one of the horses on the enemy's four horse cart. While they were running all out. Good lord... the carnage

I also played for a few minutes before work, and managed to get in a bit of combat. So far, I'm having fun with it.

I don't handle that randomly. There may be random elements involved (perception checks, stealth checks, etc.), but if they're infiltrating a compound, I'll do my best to determine what guard forces are present and their stations and their patrol routes. I don't think random encounters are...
