    ZEITGEIST Ever thought of getting Battlebards or Syrinscape to produce soundscapes for Zeitgeist?

    I use this song as Rock Rackus's themesong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ic32fCzyqJ0 (I haven't told my players what the base song is, since I don't want them to have the association, and they haven't picked up on it, so we're all good.) In my mind, I imagine that the "heys" starting around...

    We Finally Finished!

    Overly simplistic question for such an epic writeup: why did your party choose to keep Mavisha? Did you feel there was real decision-making and hemming-and-hawing over which planes to bind, or was it pretty obvious to go with the old stuff, plus just fill the gaps with some attractive...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST 5E

    Tobold: Even if adventure 1 starts at level 3 as written, it should be pretty easy to introduce some graduated steps within it, and start at level 1 anyway. For example, there is an introductory encounter right at the start of the first adventure that should be very easily to scale down to...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST 5E

    Just a gentle reminder that your rabid fans are super enthusiastic about standalone adventures with historical pregenerated characters in the Zeitgeist universe. *cough* Vagabonds of the Mirror Moon *cough* and that we'd be happy to purchase such products. Because ZG is awesome.

    Likability of Rock Rackus

    Rackus was extremely popular in my group. I even had a theme song for him that played whenever he walked on stage (he was literally the only character in the campaign that had one). His heading in my players' writeups of the sessions afterwards would be "God (a.k.a. Rock Rackus)". He was...

    got Act2 & Act3 hardcovers, but...

    Has anyone gotten a correct Act 2 hardcover yet? Basically, I'm wondering if *everyone*'s Act 2 is borked, and in that case, I should wait for someone more local to me to get an ostensibly-4e book, and make for an easier swap :p

    got Act2 & Act3 hardcovers, but...

    Here's a vid that should hopefully be sufficient: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1WiVTOR3qZmd2M1UlhLcVVjTVE Let me know if you need anything else. I couldn't think of an easy way to capture it via a still photo. Also, can you delete or blur the image in your post that shows my address...

    got Act2 & Act3 hardcovers, but...

    This morning, my wife opened the door and shouted into the house "who is Ryan Nock?" which struck me as an odd NYE question. Turns out the hardcovers were shipped "To" the director of the AP, but at my address. My name wasn't actually on the package anywhere; it was as if Ryan lived at my...

    OB Ring stuff

    My understanding is that the engraving was on the inside band of the ring. Meaning, it would be impossible to see if the ring was being worn. If the ring is off, I didn't get the impression that it was "hidden" or needed any shenanigans to be able to see it (e.g. Gandalf doesn't have to throw...

    Missing Planer [sic] Tiles

    Until books have been printed, it's never too late :cool: I get "your PDF has been updated" emails from RpgNow all the time. Well, sometimes. (Some publishers take this too far. Red Aegis? Blades in the Dark? Yea, I'm looking at you two.)

    Missing Planer [sic] Tiles

    Aren't the tiles mostly used to plan the cosmology? Prior to the final battle, I mean. (They have the planes' power-description on them, and implies the PCs know how they work.) The only way for the PCs could get ahold of the those three icons (Jiquus, Regulus, Patricalus) are by bum-rushing...

    ZEITGEIST: The Gears of Revolution - Act Three: The Age of Reason (Pathfinder)

    No cross-post on the ZG subforum? I almost missed this great news :) woo! go zeitgeist!

    Weakened Avilona: Why? [contains spoilers, nuts]

    I see the abstract point, but I don't really think it applies here. This isn't just mythic background stuff. This is a mystery campaign, and the borking of Avilona is an important part of that mystery. Then in Act 3, this becomes a fiddly bit that the PCs are asked to make a major decision...

    Weakened Avilona: Why? [contains spoilers, nuts]

    This has been corrected somewhat in the Act 2 hardcover. In particular, check out the (revised) Skyseer vision in adv6 when you're assaulting Pemberton's volcano. One detail that you're missing (and I wish I could link you the forum post where RangerWickett explained this, but it got eaten in...

    Zeitgeist: The Gears of Revolution - Act Two: The Grand Design

    There's tons of new stuff! I totally spotted an image of bears in there that wasn't there before. MORE BEARS.

    Zeitgeist: The Gears of Revolution - Act Two: The Grand Design

    To drum up hype, what are the cool new value-adds in this version? Bond of Forced Faith is the big biggie, but looks like there's fun new content in the siege in adv9, and some revised planar backstory in adv6 & adv7. Anything else?

    [MINOR SPOILERS] errata question for item found in adventure two

    (Speaking as PF GM) Regardless of how the underlying math *should* work, I would only charge the PCs as if it was halfway between a +1 and +2 weapon. (i.e. about 5000gp) Reasons being threefold: 1) Cool stuff that PCs find in-game have more cinematic value than tailor-ordered items from...

    Prepping for the hardcover compilation - errors, edits, and suggestions?

    Are you jumping straight from the release of adv13 to the hardcover, or is there an interim wait in there? Ya know, fun stuff, like pretending to "wait for more community feedback", while you secretly work on more Rock Rackus adventures? :p

    Prepping for the hardcover compilation - errors, edits, and suggestions?

    I'd like to suggest that the campaign is already "ready" It's a long, long beast, and the sorts of things happening in Adventure 13 aren't going to impact your ability to prep and run Adventure 1. The campaign takes place over three Acts (Act I is adv1-5, Act II is adv6-9, Act III is adv11-3)...

    Prepping for the hardcover compilation - errors, edits, and suggestions?

    Somewhat related to that area: On the way up the Lance, there are a series of memories or ghosts of people that the PCs have killed. One of them is Kaja Stewart, who (in that scene) shoots herself in the head, as an allusion to the ostensible suicide she committed in book 3. But in the...
