Thanks! Those Mini-Games were super fun to do! --Erik Mona Then-Editor of Polyhedron

Well, two strangers thought you were being rude, so take that for what it's worth. "People I work with are mean" or "you'll know when I'm _really_ being an ass" isn't a great defense, but whatever. If you didn't mean to be offensive, I'm not offended. --Erik

I don't understand why you are being rude to me when I'm just trying to add additional information. As Robert has already posted, WizKids has numerous packaging methods, from single boosters to multi-figure blind boosters (in several different formats) to visible sets (in tubes, in flat packs...

We've been posting production images on the blog every Friday for the last two months or so. We'd planned to swap in those images on the main product page this week, but the office was completely shuttered due to Seattle's snow and ice emergency over the last week, so that hasn't happened yet...

I think the waste issue is a fair criticism, and one I hope WizKids takes steps to address. Since those are not my decisions, all I can say is "that's a big pile in that there picture," and see where things go from here. --Erik

It would have been so expensive to have been impossible. Several of these miniatures will eventually appear in that format in what we're calling "Encounter Packs" of around a half-dozen minis. That product format should be more palatable for people who don't like the randomness, and who want...

That kind of feedback is very valuable. I will pass it along to my contacts at WizKids, and encourage them to read this thread. --Erik

I appreciate all the comments, you guys. Keep 'em coming. I too am a huge fan of Rackham, going back to when you couldn't get the old metal minis in America. Their prepaints are amazing. I use them extensively in my own games, and many of them are considerably better than I could accomplish...

I would buy that in a hot second. Part of the problem is that most of the first edition artists don't actually have much of their original art yet, nor do they have transparencies or high-quality scans, which makes it difficult to assemble a nice-looking book. The other problem is that the...

That image is actually the cover of the forthcoming Advanced Race Guide, not a sample of the comic art. Dynamite has not yet picked a creative team for the comic, so we'll have to wait a bit longer to see what the actual comic will look like. (It may not feature a tengu character, for example...

I think it's wrong, obviously. --Erik Mona Publisher Paizo Publishing

Just as a bit of inside info, this is more likely a byproduct of the schedules necessary to successfully solicit a product for distribution to the book trade. Generally speaking, publishers must submit title information to their distributor at least 6-10 months in advance, often before the...

I don't exactly know yet. I assume there will be 20 Medium bases, and a smaller number of Large and Huge bases, but we're still waiting on that specific detail. --Erik

Right. --Erik

Right now my plan is to include a complete list of what's in there (and how many) on the box itself, so that will be generated as a byproduct of the product, and will be shared widely. I'm also strongly considering numbering them, so we can reference them in stat blocks. I think that could be...

Thanks! I actually had the idea for pawns before we started working on the Beginner Box. The positive response to the ones we included there convinced us that we needed to get more out ASAP. It pretty much covers the Bestiary. It is not exhaustive, but it's pretty close. I had to trim some...

To clarify a bit (the official product page should be up tomorrow), the Bestiary Box will have more than 300 pawns (not 250). It does not contain a book (since the book is the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary). Thickness is the same as in the Beginner Box, only with Large and Huge bases in addition to...

Goblinworks is an independent company creating this game under license. It's likely that our current staff will be involved in some of the initial design and brainstorming and stuff, but the current plan is to keep the teams separate so as to avoid what you are talking about. The Pathfinder...

We have no power over Amazon's prices, and Amazon pays our distributor based on the list price, so it doesn't matter to us in terms of how much money we get from the purchase. Our advice is to buy it from the place that makes most sense for you. --Erik Mona Publisher Paizo Publishing

Not true. Paizo has never sued anyone. --Erik
