I would give Pathfinder a serious look, if you enjoyed the 3.5 era. You don't need to buy the print version of the core rules to do this, either, as there are two easy ways to check the game out first: The Pathfinder Reference Document available here on Paizo's site and also available at...

Just a few points: 1) They probably didn't plan on it. I've seen them answer in the negative several times when this question has been asked, but it is obvious there is demand for the product, and as a publisher they need to realize when there is demand and change their plands accordingly...

In Pathfinder you would use the monsters CR as it's level, yes. The equivalent of its ECL. Keep in mind, though, that Pathfinder doesn't really suggest the use of monsters as PCs and the system isn't designed around it, so you may need to be careful with any monsters as PCs. For the dragons...

Maybe you should break away from the character builder? Keeping up with a character as it levels up using just the compendium and the books isn't that hard, the only really troubling part will be copying things over by hand the first time. It is convenient, but it seems the be the big issue...

I'm going to step away from the subject of any editions: Having to GM a system really lets you see the nuts and bolts of the thing. As you plan for your campaign, you will likely see all the good, bad, and ugly of the game you are prepping, and sometimes, like this time, you don't like what...

You'll be quite happy with it. It is a great book and one of my favorites thus far for any game. This is how Monster Books SHOULD be presented.

Burn Notice with Swords.

I'm really sorry to hear about these cut backs. Those who are loosing their positions have my deepest sympathies and I wish them a quick recovery and a long healthy life in the industry should that be their passion. Regardless of our allegiences, any loss of these artists (of which I view...

This issues already been fixed, it was a problem with Windows 7 as we discussed over the phone. But I'm replying here just to clear up the 'over an hour' part. I don't meant that I tried to do it constantly for an hour straight, but that I tried repeatedly over the course of an hour before it...

Well I know for me at least it would make this DRM thing seem a lot more ok, and it seems to be an industry standard way to handle it. Besides formats and viruses and stuff it would also allow for buying new computers or deciding you no longer want it on your desktop but your laptop instead, etc.

Yeah, that was me, I'll send you a PM with the contact information. I realized that mistake on my drive home today, I get forgetful when I'm upset. I was finally able to get the software to work on my end by using my secondary liscence (You get one free with each purchase, which is good...

Another note about Hero Lab: Having not yet received a response to my email. I attempted to reach the company by phone, only to be informed by their answering service that they will not answer support related questions via their phone. I then found out that their estimated email response time...

Just a heads up for those of you who may be considering using HeroLab for Pathfinder. The software can only be activated once every 120 days (4 months), and if you need to reinstall you have to email the companies support line and explain to them why you have to reinstall the software. I...

Just increase your right page margin to something large, like 4" or so, and change the layout back to one column.

I just recommended the images to sort of make it easier to scan, I don't mean to make it look like a module or anything. For instance I put NPC pictures next to their introductions or important parts of the adventure if I'm able just to help me find that NPC quicker durring play. Since you are...

This is a topic I'm extremely interested in as well. I have to say your notes look quite a bit more organized than I manage, but I would suggest you try different nested levels of headings to help make finding information a bit easier. For instance, I would make each of the floor labels...

The Companion books are player focused books, and they are all generally 32 page soft covers. Sometimes they focus on a region corresponding with a Pathfinder Society faction, and sometimes a race, etc... but they are meant to books to help you as a player. GMs will find them useful, of...

Its a good set, in my opinion, I bought two copies and may buy a third. But I think the negative opinions expressed here probably have more to do with the general frustration of the scarcity of the 'Basic' dungeon tile sets. In fact, the speed in which these sets sell out and go out of print...

I have to ask... why? I'm lucky enough that I have at least one copy of every set and 2-3 of most. But... Runes of the Wild was a long time ago, its out of print, and to find a copy now will run you $60+ on ebay. It even uses the old D&D logo on its packaging. Why limit the benefit that this...

This is the solution I ended up going with, for similar reasons as above. I bought the Flip-Mat: Tavern (OOP, unfortunately, but still cheap on eBay.) It's reverse side is a blank grassland. The tavern is useful as well. I've been topping it with tiles (from the previous wilderness set and...
