Reviews of Pathinder RPG's Beginner Box are making the rounds, and many of them link to Paizo's unboxing video (
appearing on this blog immediately after its release). One of the features of the box that I was particularly excited to see -- and felt like the video gave short shrift -- were the pawns. I will address this lack out of my own interest in the pawns, and to help inform my readers, with a selections of photographs I took of some of my favorites among the 87 pawns. They are very nice illustrations of appropriate monsters and characters for games between 1st and 5th level, and printed on very sturdy cardboard, and the bases (stands) hold them erect with no problems. Other parts of the boxed set may be seen in the background.
