News

 

• Pathfinder Battles: Wrath of the Righteous pushed back, Reign of Winter is set to release in April;

  • “…the set’s formal release month has been moved from DECEMBER to JANUARY. We’ve listened to what collectors and fans have been telling us about the pace of Pathfinder Battles releases, and we’ll be slowing things down a bit in 2014 to make it easier for folks to keep up with their collections. As usual, thanks for the great feedback you guys have provided throughout this whole process. It really does help us a lot as we plan sets and make decisions about what figures to include and how to paint them.” -Erik Mona, Fri, Oct 25, 2013 http://paizo.com/paizo/blog/v5748dyo5lfgf?Pathfinder-Battles-Preview-First-Looks-at
