a couple items re: stuff to buy

Issue #11 of Fight On! is out, with all the usual neat stuff.  I've got a couple of stupid dice tables in this one, including a chart for random computer devices found in an otherwise normal dungeon.  Also:  Holy crap!  Erol Otus has a credit for the magic item section!  Available in print here and PDF here.

You can't buy it yet but the folks at Paizo are coming out with a Pathfinder Basic boxed set.  And unlike certain other crippleware-esque approaches to the concept, this one is designed to go up to fifth level.  I'm not a Pathfinder fan but more decent introductory boxed sets in circulation is definitely a good thing.  More info here.

  1. We welcome Pathfinder because it takes the piss out of the man.

  2. I quite like the idea of the Pathfinder basic set so far. Level 5 is the sweet spot where characters start to become powerful enough to make their mark on the world and have enough toys to play with, but the game isn't too complicated yet. Also see: E6.

  4. I hate that crippleware 1983 set that only goes to 3rd!
