Check here for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adventure_Path

Wiki needs an update, try this for details:

http://paizo.com/pathfinder/adventurePath

Always 96 pages long, 6 issues, free players guide, more recent have map folio, minis, cards, basically a whole load of extras that tie in.  They often also tie in to separate rule expansions and campaign expansions.  Iron Gods is a good example (it add technology and dead magic areas to the Paizo campaign) along with the 6 part adventure path.

Terry,

I think you made a mistake in prioritizing the rewrites of the old material instead of doing something new.  Where's Emer IV?

As usual, I will buy it.  At this point, I'm not sure why.  I"ll still buy it.

This is all very disappointing.

Indeed! I am dying to learn more about Uj, The City of the Dead, Itanis' warlocks, etc! Please, Mr. Amthor, don't let this one take 13 years!

Thanks,

For me, there's tons of info in the books already published, as a GM, I am working hard to pull every shred of info on the numerous powers (cults, dragon lords, essence lords, unlife, religions etc.) in one place to be able to make sense of what is really going on in Kulthea in any given area.  What would be very handy for me as a GM is a large tomb containing all powers (almost like a 2nd edition powers of light and darkness on steroids).

Each 'Powers' section might provide the following:
Names and titles known by and by whom (if applicable)
Goals of power
Strategy to achieve goal
Major tactical actions engaged in or about to be initiated (list of key trigger events)
Influences on power (Names of other powers actively subverting or influencing)
Active spheres of influence (on other powers or realms/kingdoms)
Key allies and enemies
Operating locations across Kulthea and relevant tactical information (i.e. overview of action's in play or about to be initiated)
HQ Location (stated by continent, realm/area and settlement)
Key behaviours of power (method used; to engage, subvert/attack/influence, retreat)
Breakdown of power's forces and stats
Hierarchy within power (something like an organization chart)

Yes. A thousand times YES. Once RMU is completed, I believe we will get a Master Atlas Ultimate Edition and it would make sense to re-work Powers as well.

Mr. Amthor, could you please comment on this?

Thanks,

Forgot about this thread, so repeating a question here for TKA :)

Do you plan on releasing a Kulthea wide map showing all major and significant essaence flows and foci? (similar to that of the Jaiman essaence flow map)?

If I do, I will probably just sketch out something and put it online.

Over on the Facebook SW page, someone mentioned a comprehensive timeline. Matt's Library of Nomikos online timeline/library database was an awesome resource (which I actually used at times), and it would be great if that or something like it could be resurrected, incorporating the latest updates. Who is up to that challenge? Maybe Matt could help or has a backup to get it started?

I don't have a backup of Matt's database, but I should have somewhere the original word file that he used to create the database since I'm the one that did it.

Hmm, looks like this topic got split out into another thread....  Guess I'll move my post there.
