About the adventure

A Legendary Epic from Legendary Games! Strange things are afoot in a ramshackle house in the back streets of Eber, but the heroes who pull that first thread will find murder, mayhem, monsters, mystery, and magic aplenty in this massive adventure series from award-winning author Greg A. Vaughan and his talented team! Eldritch tomes hold ancient secrets better left forgotten, as sinister cults, secret guilds, and malevolent masterminds weave a continent-spanning conspiracy that threatens doom for all. Ancient enemies will rise and a legacy of sorrow and betrayal bears bitter fruit, but the lure of fortune and glory draws the heroes ever onward in a breathless race against time and rival forces, with redemption and cataclysm balanced on the edge of a knife and the fate of untold thousands at stake. The elder empires do not rest easy, and you must decide whether their restless slumber awakens into a dream or a nightmare. The Aegis of Empires Adventure Path is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure saga for taking characters all the way to 17th level, from gritty urban adventure, chilling mysteries, epic wilderness journeys, and fabulous lost cities ranging across the length and breadth of the spectacular Lost Lands Campaign Setting. For this famous 3rd party campaign we are going to try Gestalt-Based Multiclassing and maybe some other unusual rules variations for a small group of players!

Max is a fun GM to play with and he’s very patient about helping people learn the mechanics of the game. He follows the rules, but isn’t a rules lawyer and that makes the game enjoyable and keeps the focus on where it needs to be: having fun!

I've been playing a series of Call-of-Cthulhu one shot's with Max for several months now. He's great. He's very patient and encouraging with new players. He does different voices and accents for different characters and that really adds to the immersion. Some of them he gives amusing personalities. Hard to be sure without looking behind the GM screen, but I'm pretty sure he adjusts the difficulty on-the-fly depending on player count and how the players are doing, and is able to do so in a way that still seems like a natural part of the story. So the game is always a fun challenge, and never too easy or too difficult.
