- Pathfinder: Kingmaker is an honest recreation of that ancient dream, but it's also about what comes out after, how you deal with the difficulties that arise once you settle down and start raising.
- Cleric pathfinder, Clerics, druids, paladins, and rangers have separate spell lists. A Cleric also has access to two Domains determined during character Creation. Each domain gives her access to a number of special abilities and bonus Spells. Spell Slots: The character class tables show how many Spells of each level each can cast per day.
| “ | The land rush is on! Sent south by Brevoy, the heroes have the unenviable task of venturing into the infamous Stolen Lands and annexing the territory, facing down monsters, bandits, and worse. It's hard enough to conquer territory—but does a ragtag band of adventurers have what it takes to found and defend a burgeoning kingdom from the terrors of the wild? The Kingmaker Adventure Path takes the heroes from encounters with mysterious bandit lords and barbaric raiders through the trials and tribulations of developing and defending their new settlement in the notoriously lawless River Kingdoms. Yet when war comes to the Stolen Lands in earnest, it's up the heroes to take up a mystical blade and stand tall against the horrors of man, beast, and strange creatures more dangerous than either... | ” |
Tenth anniversary edition
Each domain grants a number of domain powers, dependent upon the level of the cleric, as well as a number of bonus spells. A cleric gains one domain spell slot for each level of cleric spell she can cast, from 1st on up. Each day, a cleric can prepare one of the spells from her two domains in that slot. At first level, Druids can take an Animal Companion but lose out on extra spell slots and domain powers. Unlike pen and paper, Kingmaker Druids cannot share personal spells. A Defender of the True World grants their bonuses against Fey to the Animal Companion. At 1st level, when an ecclesitheurge chooses his cleric domains, he designates one as his primary domain and the other as his secondary domain. An ecclesitheurge can use his non-domain spell slots to prepare spells from his primary domain’s spell list.
In May 2019, Paizo ran a crowdfunding campaign to determine the size and scope of a hardcover 10th anniversary edition of the Kingmaker Adventure Path to release in 2020. The campaign would be converted to Pathfinder Second Edition and be supported by numerous accessories, a Companion Guide, and bestiaries of monsters and key NPCs for both Pathfinder's first edition and D&D's fifth edition. The campaign earned more than $440,000 with over 2,500 backers and added an additional $50,000 in late pledges from July to October. Unlocked add-ons included additional campaign content, expanded kingdom management rules, three flip-mat multi-packs, a kingdom-management GM screen, custom dice, a pawn collection, and more. Paizo partnered with Legendary Games, publishers of Pathfinder- and 5E-compatible material, to assist with the conversion and design of new content.[1]

| Stolen Land | Written byTim Hitchcock | Released March 2010 | ||
| Enter the Stolen Lands, a wilderness claimed by nobles, bandits, and beasts alike. Into this territory the fractious country of Brevoy sends its emissaries, tasking them with subduing the lawless folk and deadly creatures that have made it a realm of savagery and shame. Beyond the last rugged frontier stretches the home of voracious monsters, capricious fey, wily natives, and bandits who bow to the rule of a merciless lord none dare defy. Can the PCs survive the Stolen Lands, bring their dangers to heel, and lay the foundations of a new kingdom? Or will they just be one more fateful band, lost forever to the ravenous wilds? | ||||
| Rivers Run Red | Written byRob McCreary | Released April 2010 | ||
| With the heart of the Stolen Lands explored and the bandits who ruled there scattered, the long-contested realm finally lies open for pioneers and settlers to stake their claims. Amid the rush of opportunistic travelers, the PCs find themselves stewards over a new domain, tasked with the responsibility of guiding and guarding a fledgling nation struggling to grow upon a treacherous borderland. Yet the threats to this new nation quickly prove themselves greater than mere bandits and wild beasts, as the monstrous natives of the hills and forests rampage forth to slaughter all who have trespassed upon their territory. Can the PCs hold the land they've fought so hard to explore and tame? Or will their legend be just one more lost to the fangs of the Stolen Lands? | ||||
| The Varnhold Vanishing | Written byGreg A. Vaughan | Released May 2010 | ||
| The Stolen Lands consume many wanderers—the perils of its rugged wildernesses and hidden mysteries prey upon even the wariest of travelers. Founded upon one of the most savage frontiers, the colony of Varnhold defied the many dangers of this harsh region. At least, it did until all the residents of the fledgling community completely disappeared. Now it falls to the PCs to discover what became of their eastern neighbor, a secret steeped in generations-old hatreds and the mysteries of an empire long crumbled to dust. Can they uncover the terrible secret behind this shocking disappearance before the same calamity befalls their own land? | ||||
| Blood for Blood | Written byNeil Spicer | Released June 2010 | ||
| Even with the PCs' kingdom growing at their heart, the Stolen Lands are far from tame. An incursion by merciless barbarians spills blood on the PCs' lands and begins a search for a legendary artifact in the depths of the region's most infamous wilderness. Amid the perpetual shadows and bottomless bogs of the Hooktongue Slough lie long-mired secrets and terrors eager to consume any who intrude upon their fetid realm. Yet what powers that lurk beyond the swamp seek to end the PCs' reign? And how might a single, bloodthirsty blade mean the difference between their kingdom's ruin and its survival? | ||||
| War of the River Kings | Written byJason Nelson | Released July 2010 | ||
| Can two kings truly trust one another? King Irovetti, ruler of Pitax and potential rival to the leaders of the eastern Stolen Lands, opens his gates and hospitality to the lords of that realm. Within his city of shallow indulgences and crude decadence, he hosts a tournament ostensibly meant to foster friendship and peace, but fraught with dangers all its own. Is the King of Pitax's good will sincere, or does he harbor a more sinister goal? And are the PCs fated to gain an opponent who commands not only a nation, but allies from a deadly other realm? | ||||
| Sound of a Thousand Screams | Written byRichard Pett | Released July 2010 | ||
| With the dangers of the Stolen Lands brought to heel, the PCs rule as lords of that realm. But from an unassuming corner of their kingdom, a centuries-old plot takes shape, turning the land itself into a deadly enemy that threatens to bring their entire nation to ruin. As the boundary between the Stolen Lands and an insane other world begins to break down, it's up to the PCs to save their people from nature gone mad and the emissaries of a reality beyond imagining. But can they retain their kingdom—and their sanity—against the fury of the First World? | ||||

Pathfinder: Kingmaker has been finally released on PC by Publisher Deep Silver and Developer Owlcat Games. as the name suggests the game is based on Paizo’s Pathfinder franchise.
It is an isometric CRPG fantasy game which takes inspiration from several games like Baldur’s Gate, Arcanum and fallout. you will lead a party of different characters to fight against enemies in an unknown region to form a new empire.
Guide To Combat And Spells In Pathfinder: Kingmaker
To progress through the game and conquer the Stolen Lands Region you will need to use different offensive and defensive mechanics.
But the game contains a lot of information which can easily confuse many players. so in this guide, you will learn about the necessary combat and spell functions.
Below you will find a guide explaining both basic and advance usage of combat and spell mechanics present in the game.
Combat In Pathfinder: Kingmaker
First, let’s look at some of the basic stuff which will help you understand the mechanics behind the different actions.
One round is six second and during that round, a character can get into one action, one move and a swift action and then there is the free action which can be performed without any limit. so with that in mind lets look at more actions.
Initiative – when your party and an enemy face each other. each character rolls an initiative. the higher the initiative of a character the faster your character gets to act.
Attack Roll – whenever you do an attack roll, you roll a d20 plus attack bonus also this roll may have other modifiers if applicable. if your result equals or greater than the target’s Armor Class, then you will hit and deal damage.
Attack Bonus – if you get a d20 roll you will be able to get the attack bonuses. but the bonus effect is different for both melee and ranged weapons.
- Melee – Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + size modifier
- Ranged – Base attack bonus + Dexterity modifier + size modifier – range penalty
Armor Class – this stat represents the number that you need to beat in order to hit an enemy or take a hit. below you will find the formula of how the Armor Class is calculated. you can use it to improve it.
- AC = 10 + armor bonus + shield bonus + Dexterity modifier + other modifiers
Different types Of Armor Class – there are different types of armor class present in the game and all of them work and react differently.
- Basic AC – all bonuses effect
- Flat-footed AC – all dex and dodge bonuses to it are removed but affected by sneak attacks.
- Touch AC – Armor bonuses do not apply but affected by touch spells, for example, scorching ray.
Crits – in a natural one your character will auto miss regardless of bonuses you have. but on a natural 20, it will auto hit and also pose a critical chance. when you roll after natural 20 and you beat the enemies armor class you will deal the crit but if it less then the Armor class you will just do basic damage.
Death Scenario – in combat if your HP goes negative but is not equal to or greater than the constitution score then you are not dead yet. if you HP goes negative and is equal or less than the constitution score then you are dead.

On normal difficulty these mechanics give you the Death Door Debuff which means next time you die before resting at a safe area, it will be over in Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
Attack Range – look at a weapon stats, at the top of you will find the damage and below it, you will find the range.
This number represents how close a target must be in order to attack them. glaive weapon has one of the highest reaches which makes it good against low AC characters.
Combat Maneuvers – this is another mechanics present in the game which can debuff the enemy. to unlock these maneuvers you need to take the combat maneuvers associated feat. and to take the combat maneuver feats, you must first take Combat expertise. this will require 13 int.
Boost Maneuvers – when you are performing a combat Maneuver on an enemy and if your damage is greater than its combat maneuver defense then you will deal bonus damage. below you will find the formula and use it to increase the damage.
- CMB(Combat Maneuvers Boost) = Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + special size modifier
- Size numbers – Tiny –2, Small –1, Medium +0, Large +1, Huge +2
Combat Maneuver Defense – using combat maneuver should be planned as it can deal massive damage if used correctly. while using you will need to take into account the CMD of an enemy which can be done with this formula.
- CMD = 10 + Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + Dexterity modifier + special size modifier + miscellaneous modifiers.
Bonuses – you should keep in mind is that two bonuses of the same type don’t stack most of the time. there are some bonuses which actually stack like dodge bonuses, racial bonuses, and others. only the better bonus of a given type works.
Bonuses without a type always stack but if they are from the same source they won’t work. a detailed list of all the bonuses can be found below.
