Paizo Publishing has announced its Pathfinder RPG releases for the month of February, which is the beginning of a new Adventure Path series: Giantslayer. Releases include the first adventure, a new campaign setting book, an adventure "toolbox," and a map pack.
The Battle of Bloodmarch Hill launches the new six-part Giantslayer Adventure Path. In this adventure, players must defend a human settlement besieged by orcs while uncovering the truth behind a mysterious death. The adventure is designed for first level characters, and includes information on the giants of Golarion, new game mechanics for giants, and a new Pathfinder’s Journal. The adventure is compatible with the Pathfinder RPG and the Open Game License. MSRP is $22.99.
The new Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Tombs of Golarion presents a number of deadly dungeons and tombs for the Pathfinder game world. The 64-page softcover book includes a number of adventures including new monsters, traps, and treasures, as well as suggestions for gamemasters who want to include them in their own campaigns. MSRP is $19.99.
The Pathfinder Player Companion: Melee Tactics Toolbox will be a 32-page softcover book with new rules and game materials designed to enhance melee combat in the game. This book was written with the player in mind, designed to appeal to them rather than gamemasters. MSRP is $12.99.
The last of Paizo’s planned quartet for February will be the Pathfinder Map Pack: River System. Designed to work with the Pathfinder Flip-Mat: Basic Terrain Multi-Pack and other grassy flip-mats, this set includes 18 full-color map tiles illustrated by Jason Engle. The tiles can be used to create a variety of river scenes, and have a special coating that allows wet, dry, and permanent markers to be used and erased. This will be the 54th Map Pack game accessory. MSRP is $13.99.
The Pathfinder roleplaying game has continued to dominate the market, ranking number one on ICv2’s list for Spring 2014 (see "Top 5 RPGs--Spring 2014").
