ITT we list all the reasons why we hate the Tau and they suck. I'll start.

They stick out from the rest of the universe because they don't have any parallel in WFB. They just don't fit with the science fantasy setting.

Pathfinder General /pfg/

What is your preferred permutation of default allowed sources? Paizo + all DSP + all SoP seems to have been the standard before.
Paizo + Forrest (in DSP or FFS) + N. Jolly seems to be gaining traction now, possibly because of disillusionment with PoW and SoP. Does this permutation have good merits?

>THIS IS IMPORTANT!
If you want build advice make sure to say what 3pp you can use, if any.

Apparently GW had a really good last quarter. I wonder how much of this was related to the management changes?

After reading up on bards a bit, I had an odd idea for a specific campaign after pondering the idea of making low-leveled encounters bards, where the rarity of classes was inverted, so to speak.

PC characters are generated as normal, but commoners would be very rare and only important NPCs would have that class, bandits are replaced by renegade wizards who might have a fighter or thief in their ranks if they count themselves lucky, and bards replace the warrior/thief class as the basic template of your standard kobold or goblin, with dozens of the beady fucks assaulting low-leveled adventurers with Vicious Insult. Clerics and Paladins would still be clerics and paladins, but hostile clerics/paladins would be significantly more common while their friendlier counterparts would generally be harder to find, though normally antagonistic classes like rogues and warlocks would likewise have more "friendly" individuals show up on a regular basis.

Does this sound completely retarded? How would you justify this in-setting?

Heya /tg/, I've been slowly forming ideas for a short horror campaign I want to run but I've somewhat hit a brick wall which is called 'I can't invent a cool monster worth shit'. I want to draw inspiration from the first Alien, Dead Space, The Thing and Event Horizon. Thing is, I really don't want to use some horrible body horror monstrosity, zombie or some insectoid monster because it's what the players would expect. I'm stumped because I'm trying to imagine some creature (or creatures) which would be at home in those dark, cramped spaces.

I'm thinking of setting the game on some extremely remote planet, obviously, maybe some early terraform facility and/or archeological expedition. The universe might be high tech but most of the gear of the player character would be rather crude, less fancy-cutting-edge and more its-designed-to-last. Both to show how rugged and demanding their job is but also to limit what they can do. One potential setup is that whatever they are doing take decades, so they regularly freeze the personnel that isn't active until, say, the next maintenance cycle. So when the PC wake up it's because the whole system has gone haywire and unfreezing them due to the emergency detected. So, similar to the start of Alien 1 I suppose, at least in that regard. That mean their characters would know about the place enough to be familiar with it but because everyone has specific jobs and it's a large facility, there would be part of it they don't know. Maybe I could even give some 'screentime' to the base BEFORE they get frozen and then unfrozen.

Still no idea what the monster could be however and I don't want zombies, that much I know.
