Although this book presents its contents in a fairly no-frills format, I would have to consider Running Epic Tier D&D Games a must-have for any serious D&D <ACRONYM title="D&D 4th Edition">4E</ACRONYM> Dungeon Master to read and refer to as they advance their campaigns from Heroic to Paragon and into the Epic Tier.

Yesterday I posted some images of the upcoming Pathfinder boxed set. Black Diamond Games has some more info.
- Erik Mona: "Please note that this is a mock-up and that some of the details (such as the exact name) will be changing. The new Wayne Reynolds painting is correct, though!"
- BDG: "It's a full 5-level Pathfinder box set that uses the same rules in a more user friendly format. It should have a DMs book, player's book and adventure. No miniatures but standee figures ala Kill Doctor Lucky. It's $34.95."
- Vic Wertz: "That is the actual final cover art—but it's *not* the finished cover. It's also not really going to be called "Basic Game," and that particular title font will not be used."
- Erik Mona: "Just wait until we post the contents. This is going to be absolutely STUFFED with high-value materials. We're putting as much stuff in this box as we can without losing money."
- Erik Mona: "We won't be formally announcing this project for a while yet, so things like a final class and race list will have to wait. Right now it's best to consider these photos as further evidence that Paizo is going to release this game later this year, but until we've formally solicited it to the trade and posted a project page, some of the details are going to take a while to get out."
- James Jacobs: "We at Paizo have always viewed 5th level as the end of low-level. It's got capstones (fireball!), but it doesn't edge into the rather complex arena of iterative attacks. 5th level, for those reasons and more, is a good break off point."
