I really liked the Book on the Pathfinder Soceity.

Neat NPC's

Good hooks.

Great Lore.

A bunch of Ioun Stones.

Probably the best book I have bought from the line...

I'm reading that one right now, myself. I need to start working on getting all the Companion books, too, and the Adventure Paths.

Oooh! I've got to add this one to the list, along with the recently released guide to hell. I missed that one.

Just finished that one; they arrived in the same shipment. Oddly, I'd quite recently read the Planescape stuff on Baator, so it was kinda weird reading a different version. I'm honestly not sure which I like better, but I do know that I'm not really a fan of Golarion's overall planar structure.

Heh, really?

I did like the descriptions, and if I was running a campaign, I'd prolly do a mix-and-match of the descriptions to get the best stuff out of either -- which might go as far as dropping Planescape towns and locales within a plane into the Golarion version.

And I certainly meant no offense on not being a fan of the overall planar structure. I'm started to read thru all the Planescape stuff now, and I grew up in 2nd Edition -- so the Wheel is a system I like and am quite familiar with. I know it's not the only way to set things up, but so far, I've not seen any alternatives that I liked as much.

I can see that. But, really, this is what I like when it comes to alternate planar cosmologies. I've got so many charts and diagrams of the different planar structures from various campaigns/worlds plastered over my wall, I can often spend long periods just gazing at them -- speculating, while working on my own cosmological framework.

Cavalier = Knight update from CW
Oracle = Shaman update from CD

VERY well done.

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

I've just downloaded "Cities of Golarion" and thumbed through its digital pages. Very impressive.

Thanks for reminding me. I checked my PDF out. I really like Whitethrone. A city ruled by monsters.

I love the picture of the Frost Giant buying a slab of meat, and holding up 2 fingers, while his Winter Wolf looks hungry. That human looks scared.

I cant wait for this one now.

The City that has the temple of the God of the Red Mantis is neat also. I like the whole Red Mantis motif.

Did I mention that I can't wait for this one now?

Are you sure this is a frost giant? I thought it was a winter wolf, since he is not much larger than the merchant, he has white hair, and the eyes are similar to his wolfish companion.

You could be right.

I thought Frost Giant when I first saw him. I love that pic...

Just read an E-mail from Paizo about Monte Cook's Pathfinder Module

quote:
Monte Cook to Write Pathfinder RPG Adventure
"Curse of the Riven Sky" First Pathfinder RPG Design for Third Edition Co-Creator

Paizo Publishing today announced that leading fantasy RPG designer Monte Cook will write Curse of the Riven Sky, a new adventure for the popular Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. The 32-page stand-alone adventure releases in July, 2010, and represents Cook’s first significant creative design work for the Pathfinder RPG. Cook previously served as one of the primary designers of the third edition of the world’s oldest roleplaying game, and his adventure designs have won him several industry awards, including the Gen Con/EN World "ENnie" for Best Adventure.

"I love working with the folks at Paizo," said Monte Cook. "We seem to see eye to eye on what’s right for the game, and what makes a great product. It’s a thrill for me to be able to create an adventure for the cool new Pathfinder Roleplaying Game."

Curse of the Riven Sky features a series of challenging wilderness and roleplaying encounters as the player characters face off against the machinations of treacherous giants and includes a foray into the floating fortress of a cloud giant wizard. Cook previously served as a design consultant for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook, which is now entering its third printing after a smash-hit August 2009 release.

"I was lucky enough to play in Monte’s legendary Ptolus campaign," said Paizo Publisher Erik Mona. "Monte’s fundamental understanding of encounter design, strong sense of exciting fantasy, and immersive storytelling made his campaign an absolute joy, and I’m beyond thrilled to finally bring his exciting voice to the Pathfinder RPG experience."

ABOUT MONTE COOK
Monte Cook has worked professionally in the game industry since 1988 for companies including Iron Crown Enterprises, TSR Inc., and Wizards of the Coast. He is a codesigner of Dungeons & Dragons® 3rd Edition and author of the Dungeon Master’s Guide. He has designed dozens of popular roleplaying books through his own company Malhavoc Press and also has authored miniatures games, novels, comic books, and short stories. His latest venture, dungeonaday.com, offers daily exploration of an enormous mega-dungeon with maps and encounters that can be used in any fantasy roleplaying game.

Venturing to a forlorn cloud giant castle to gain the much-needed aid, the heroes become embroiled in giantish intrigue when they discover the wizard’s fortress under assault by hill giants! Will unraveling the giant wizard’s hidden past convince him to aid their cause, or will it simply bring misfortune, betrayal, and death?

Designed specifically for the new Pathfinder Roleplaying Game rules and written by gaming legend and Pathfinder RPG rules consultant Monte Cook, Curse of the Riven Sky spotlights wilderness adventuring, innovative roleplaying encounters, and problem solving, providing an unforgettable gaming experience.

Pathfinder Modules are 32-page, high-quality, full-color, adventures using the Open Game License to work with both the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and the standard 3.5 fantasy RPG rules set.

Intriguing.

Having long been a Monte-fan, I'm curious about what he'll bring to the PATHFINDER experience.

I'll have to add this to my "Must-Buy" list.

Yes, indeed, this *is* very interesting. I've known of the second print run after the first print run was sold even before the book has hit the shelves, but third run is news to me - and a testimony of the success of Paizo's baby.

I'm happy to hear that... I've not gotten them yet, and now that I've finally rejoined the ranks of the employed, I can get them!

I'm also happy to see the rules doing so well for reasons I think I can forego repeating.

In other news, I got my copy of Cities of Golarion in the mail this day. Normally, a Paizo product bumps aside any other gaming material I'm reading... But yesterday, I finally got my hands on a copy of the Iron Kingdoms Character Guide, so that's taking first priority!

I wouldn't mind hearing what you thought of that second tome, Wooly, once you've had a chance to read it.

For myself, I was more impressed with the World Guide, but the Character Guide held enough charm for me to bump my reading of the EBCS off my list and replace it with the IKCG after its release.

Privateer Press, as Sage said. He originally recommended the books to me a few years back, but at that point, I wasn't interested -- which is just as well, because if I had picked them up then, I would have lost them in the fire.

I got interested in them about a year back, when my friends decided to get me into Warmachine (Cygnar! ). Judging by the prices I see them going for online, the books remain rather popular -- which makes me wonder why PP doesn't reprint them.

I was wondering how we got to talking about Iron Kingdoms in this scroll... and it turns out it was the MODS who pulled it off-topic.

I loved having the chance to do that; returning you to your regularly-scheduled Golarion discussion scroll.

Playing in the Realms since the Old Grey Box (1987)... and *still* having fun with material published before 2008, despite the NDA'd lore.

If it's comparable in power with non-magical abilities, it's not magic.

Yeah, but I brought it up in relation to the newest Golarion book. So there!

I've not really flipped thru Cities of Golarion yet, but I like the lady knight on the back cover.

Heh. You should have been active on the Wizards boards 'Eberron' section, when IK was first released. At one point, there were more IK threads about influencing material in the EB setting, than there were threads about the EB setting itself.

Heh. I've fallen behind in my PF downloads, and it's something I hope to correct over the weekend.

Officially [and ignoring Keith Baker's original creation before the WotC setting competition in 2002], Iron Kingdoms, as a setting for modules/stories, was released around 2001/2002. But the first actual setting book for the world was released in 2004, around the time the Eberron Campaign Setting was published.
