Tome of Horrors Complete

Well-known member
Frog God Games has compiled the original 3.x Tome of Horrors I, II, and III into a single volume updated for Pathfinder. Given how often Paizo uses the Tome of Horrors in its products, has there been any thought at Lone Wolf to doing a dataset based on it?
 
While I for one would be more then happy to buy this in HL form. As it is a third party item it will most likely be up to the community to enter this.

But if we are taking a vote... I would MUCH rather pay Lone Wolf and download an add on for this bad boy. It would most likely be a pretty pricey item as the book is something like 900 pages with creatures, templates, poisons, etc included. Even with that caveat of a large price tag I would still pay for it.

Normally, I would agree with that. However, as I said, Paizo tends to make frequent use of Tome of Horrors monsters in their products, so that makes it seem more likely to me.

Some of the recent enhancements to HeroLab also allow for third-party content and updates. If not Lone Wolf, perhaps Frog God Games might do it.

Of course, there is also the chance that exactly this is in the works, and any news of it is being saved for GenCon.

Also, while it is quite likely that Lone Wolf is aware of the ToH Complete project, I thought I'd mention it on the off-chance they were not.. so that if there *is* interest, they might look up the folks from Frog God at GenCon next week. If I had waited until after GenCon, it would be too late for that.
 
While this would sell from WL like hot cakes, I cannot fathom them doing this. Ultimate Magic was delayed and issued in two parts. Ultimate Combat officially comes out in two days. Those of us that get early copies have only had it for 2-3 weeks. So for WL to have Ultimate Combat, Field Guide to PFS and the other guides - Faiths, Revisited and any others that were just released - usable in HL in a timely manner seems too much to ask. Remember, WL isn't just doing HL for Pathfinder. They have Shadowrun they were discussing, M&M 2 and 3, 4e, and so many others that they need to focus on - in addition to updating Herolab itself.
Although, it would be totally Kick Ass if they did announce it at GenCon.
 
Unlikely that they'd do it for HL...because it's FGG stuff and not Paizo stuff...so they'd have to cut a deal with FGG for it. FGG is a small company too...so unlikely they'd do it without a realistic idea of how many they'd sell...and even then only if they have programmers as part of their crew. I find it doubtful that it'll ever be in unless the fanbase does it themselves.
 
I think the best we could hope for on this front would be for members of the community to code, pass it along to LW or FGG, and have them release it from there. It's not unheard of (ala Super Genius Game's Dragonrider from ShadowChemosh).

PS - I don't suppose anyone's done the legwork on the Froghemoth yet? I'd love a copy!

Do you want the Tome of Horrors version specifically? I ask because the Froghemoth is in one of the data packages already ... Misfit Monsters Redeemed.
 
Don't point out my ignorance. It hurts my ego... ;)

Hmm... now I need to run off and see what the differences are...

EDIT: huh... identical. Now I feel doubly dumb.

Just curious if anyone has started entering the monsters from the PF version of the Tome of Horrors yet. I don't think LW has started it so just seeing if any user have started it.

Of all the third party stuff... THIS is the one I would like to see over ALL o the other third party stuff. I would pay upwards of 30 bucks or this as an add-on and I am sure others would pay easily the same amount to get this done too.

while yes it is third party... this book is way to cool to let it just sit there and have HL not do it and do it the right way as only they know how to do. If Lone Wolf added it to their repertoire it would put other character generators to shame in many many ways! :)

I'd gladly splash the cash on a tome of horrors dataset, it's used a lot in the Paizo modules, along with the advanced Bestiary which I'd also like to see officially entered!

The Froghemoth is in the Bestiary core data package to!

At this point, there is no indication that LoneWolf will be doing any sort of "official" version.
 
I picked up the PDF for the Pathfinder version of this book today. Currently working on the bestiary for the Carrion Crown AP, but thinking of starting this one after that. Was just wondering if anyone had already started entering them.
