The company is more commonly listed as Super Genius or SGG, but I second Jadeite's recommendation. I find the war master to be a perfect Pathfinder-marshal, and better designed than the original to boot.

While 4e ended up not working for me or my group, and we gave it a nearly two-year try, I don't think of it as at all like WoW. In WoW, my character can have meaningful and useful crafting skills. So no... no real similarity. Trying to be witty (and I give you points here!) doesn't give you...

Yeah, I have had the same experience, with multiple groups even after everyone was very familiar with the rules. 4e is just much, much slower for us.

Some other companies are doing sales on Paizo's site, too. Super Genius Games is 52% off, for today and tomorrow! http://paizo.com/store/downloads/superGeniusGames Also, if you post fast and contact their lead developer, you can get a free PDF of your choice! See the thread post at...

those are cool books, and very balanced, but I don't consider them essential. I don't think of the APG as 3pp, since it's by Paizo, but DM is right, it very much the rocks! Yeah, SGG has 2 Archetype books, and they are amazing. They allow you to gets lots and lots of cool, neat characters...

If they are worries Paizo's version of the game isn't going to be balanced compared to WotC's, in other words if they think the designers aren't as good, show them some names. Erik Mona. Sean K Reynolds. Stephen Radney-MacFarland. Heck, even Wesley Schneider and Jason Buhlman did some WotC...

No, there's no limit other than what each hex notes about itself.

What sources are you allowing? for example, the APG has the really cool Free Hand fighter archetype, which works well with a high-Dex (single weapon) fighter as well as the two-weapon fighter. If you get 3pp, Super Genius Games' Feats of Combat has Web of Steel, which works really well for...

I played a lot of 4e, and only gave it up fairly recently. We found fights went very, very slowly, but I suspect that's going to vary by group. for example, my group hated the fact there were 3 or 4 different bonuses being generated every round in 4e. When the cleric sets up a foe so the first...

Fifthed, I guess ;) Super Genius has a bunch of really cool stuff, all tightly focused (so you know what you are getting, and don't have to buy 32 pages of content for the 5 pages of stuff you actually want), all excellent quality and well-balanced (I've never had to disallow any Genius Guide...

Is anyone aware of another source of classes designed only to be accessed with the Multiclass feats? Alera Publishing Group did one in their Nobles book, which I picked up on the recommendation of Owen Stephens' blog (and love). And Mr. Stephens is doing a lot of them in his short Multiclass...

Even ignoring roleplaying concerns, my group would find all-18s less fun for character design. One of the things a couple of my players lvoe to do is look for combinations of race/class/feat/weapon options that let them use the same one or stats for as many things as possible. Those are often...

No problem! I love love LOVE getting a free class from someone with real 4e design credits! I took time to look at the new version, and I do now have some questions. I notice at your blog you mention doing Hybrid Class rules from some things. Are there Hybrid Class Juggernaut rules? because...

Wow, that class is extra awesome! I do have a question though. Are the Perfected Maneuver (Encounter 27) and Signature Attack (Encounter 23) really balanced? And if so, why doesn't every class do something like that? And is Perfected Maneuver level 23, like the powers its with, or level 27...

definitly have the periapt show up on a necromancer or soemthing. maybe with the paladin as a zombie knight budyguard. this is the perfect time to make an arch-nemesis.

if you want to know why wotc feels the need to do this, look up darikover and "ffan fiction." F0or whatever other sins she may be guilty of, marioN Zimmer Bradley didn;t deserve to be threatened to be sued by a fan just because she allowed and read fan ficition. MZB was unable to publish a book...

i do fine with sorcerers, often sorcerer/fighters. yeah they can;t do a whole lot, but they can do things pcs dont expect. a level or two of fighter makes them more survivable and keeps the higher level save-or-die spells off their list which is a good thing since they annoy pcs to be killed by...

for some races and types i have charts i use to determin actions,. when facing an aberration in my games i roll to see if it attacks in mlee uses and ability manuevers flees or whatever. the advantage to this system is i get really inhuman results, that the players not only can't predict, they...

Since we can posit any details, and a paladin can't really act differently without losing plaladinhood, the easy thing to do is alter the thieves guild with our posited details. For example, you could easily have a lawful good mercenary company that grew out of an guild of brigands and...

Apparently owen stevens; one of the saga authors, has combined it with mutants and masterminds to run a pulp gam,e http://owen-stephens.livejournal.com/
