    Pathfinder 1E Best third party publisher Pathfinder products?

    And kind of ironic given how much of the original was written by Paizo's current publisher. :) --Erik

    TSR Example from the worst TSR adventure module(s) ever published

    Anthony, if it makes you feel any better, I was much younger when I wrote that review, too! :) And I didn't think Rary the Traitor was _that_ bad. I mean, aside from the blue dragon named "Volt," that is. I used the poster map a lot, at least... ;) --Erik

    Personally I thought it was awesome.

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    Yes, Bastion of Faith has a LOT of stuff about Hextor and Heironeous tucked away in it. --Erik

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    I'm pretty sure these are two different things. The document quoted from above was a general collection of material cut from the book (as I recall). I'd actually love to see that document, as enough time has passed that I no longer remember what was in it. Fred Weining's Gen Con handout was a...

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    That's right. We started the AP support articles with the "Wormfood" series of player-focused articles in Dragon. The Shackled City didn't have that. That said, I believe the Shackled City Adventure Path hardcover was a little more explicit about placing that campaign in the world of Greyhawk...

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    Erik Mona, responding to the call! That material is copyright Wizards of the Coast, so I cannot avocate sharing it without their permission. That said, I'll bet it was AWESOME. --Erik PS: It seems like an oversight not to include the modules from the Age of Worms Adventure Path on this list...

    Is that Jodie Foster? Nedjer, are you really John Hinkley? --Erik

    Tabletopocalypse Now - GMS' thoughts about the decline in the hobby

    Paizo is having its best year ever. I think part of the problem is that folks who view, say, D&D or Pathfinder or a licensed game as "too derivative" are looking for a kind of tabletop gaming industry playing field in which oddball ideas without much commercial interest in the first place...

    No. At least not according to the present outline. --Erik

    D&D 5E (2014) Ultimate Magic Playtesting to Start Next Week

    It turns out we're going to have 2-3 base classes/anti-paladin style "sub-classes" in Ultimate Combat, although the archetypes system we introduced in the APG will make it very difficult for many more base classes to make it into books, since most of those concepts seem to be relatively easy to...

    I'm pissed off with Wizards of the Coast

    I can't speak for WotC, but I always schedule Paizo's big "Christmas" releases for October, because the fact is it takes a long time for books to make it into stores, and nothing slated for a December release is likely to be in stores when most people are doing their holiday shopping. I don't...

    Who is your favorite cover artist currently working?

    I _LOVE_ that Peter Mullen Swords & Wizardry cover. A spectacular piece of work that perfectly hearkens back to the early D&D art days. Also Erol Otus. Also Wayne Reynolds. --Erik

    I think TSR was right to publish so much material

    Another possibility is that 50,000-some units wasn't seen as all that impressive by TSR standards (based on the previous decade). --Erik

    I think TSR was right to publish so much material

    I suspect the number is closer to 50,000. My best information suggests that the 2e Player's Handbook (pre-black border edition) sold less than 2 million copies over its entire lifetime. The Red Box did much more than this over its lifetime, but that was very near the end in 1989. --Erik
