I want to present the Archer Sentry Infantry for #pathfinder2e! NPC Core allowed troops to be more easily managed and with that, I want to show you the Huge Legion ability which allows troops to grow larger than huge creatures!

Let me know what you think of these huge troops!

Archer Sentry Infantry Creature 12 Gargantuan Human Humanoid Troop Perception +19 Languages Common Skills Acrobatics +25, Athletics +23, Intimidation +21, Legal Lore +19, Society +19, Stealth +23 Str +4, Dex +7, Con +4, Int +3, Wis +5, Cha +3 AC 32; Fort +22, Ref +25, Will +22 HP 215 (4 segments); Thresholds 140 (3 segments), 70 (2 segments); Weaknesses area damage 10, splash damage 10 Huge Legion Huge legions are represented by each segment being 15 feet on each side and as tall as the individual members of the troop. An ability that can target 10 or more creatures can target an entire segment, increasing to two segments if it can target 20 or more creatures and to the entire troop if it can target 30 or more creatures. Troop Defenses Speed 25 feet; troop movement Piercing Shortswords [two-actions] The archers lash out against all enemies in a 5-foot emanation with their shortswords, dealing 3d6+7 piercing or slashing damage (DC 32 basic Reflex save). Fire Longbows! [one-action] to [three-actions] Frequency once per round; Effect The archers fire a volley against each enemy in a 20-foot burst within 100 feet, with a DC 28 basic Reflex save. The damage depends on the number of actions. When the squadron is reduced to 2 or fewer segments, this area decreases to a 10-foot burst. [one-action] 2d6+1 piercing damage [two-actions] 3d6+13 piercing damage [three-actions] 4d6+16 piercing damage Sentry’s Aim [two-actions] (concentrate) The archer sentry aims carefully and fires a volley against each enemy in a 15-foot burst within 100 feet. Creatures benefiting from lesser cover, and standard cover do not gain bonuses to Reflex saves against this volley. Creatures benefiting from greater cover instead have standard cover against this volley. Creatures in the area take 2d6+1 piercing damage (DC 28 basic Reflex save). When the archer sentries are reduced to 2 or fewer segments, this area decreases to a 10-foot burst.

Here's another piece of free #pathfinder2e homebrew!

I LOVE troops so much and so i turned one of my favorite stat blocks in the officials section in NPC Core into a archery firing squad to use against your players!

Enjoy the Archer Sentry Squadron!

City Guard Squad Creature 2 Large Human Humanoid Squad Perception +7 Languages Common Skills Athletics +9, Intimidation +6, Settlement Lore +4 Str +4, Dex -1, Con +2, Int +0, Wis +1, Cha +2 Seek Quarry City guards can spend 1 minute to designate a single creature for whom they have a physical description as their quarry. They gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Perception checks against their quarry. AC 18; Fort +9, Ref +4, Will +6 HP 30 (4 segments); Thresholds 20 (3 segments), 10 (2 segments); Weaknesses area damage 3, splash damage 3 Troop Defenses Speed 25 feet; city passage, troop movement City Passage City guards ignore difficult terrain caused by crowds or from movement through narrow spaces such as alleyways. Lower Halberds! [one-action] to [three-actions] Frequency once per round; Effect The city guards engage in a coordinated melee attack against each enemy in a 10-foot emanation, with a DC 15 basic Reflex save. [one-action] 1d10 piercing or slashing damage [two-actions] 1d10+2 piercing or slashing damage [three-actions] 1d10+5 piercing or slashing damage Shoot Crossbows! [two-actions] The city guards draw or reload their crossbows, then launch a ranged attack in the form of a volley. This volley is a 5-foot burst within 120 feet that deals 1d8 piercing damage with a DC 15 basic Reflex save. When the city guards are reduced to 2 or fewer segments, this area decreases to target only one creature within range. Squads A squad is a collection of creatures working in tandem. Usually, this means several weaker foes are combining forces to be a significant threat to a stronger enemy, such as the PCs. Squads resemble troops in their make-up but are much smaller. Running Squads A squad functions like a troop and thus have troop defenses and troop movement. Squads are represented using four segments that are 5 feet on each edge and as tall as the members of the squad (usually Small and medium creatures). They have roughly the footprint of a Large creature, but with a more flexible shape. An ability that can target 2 or more creatures can target an entire segment, increasing to two segments if it can target 3 or more creatures and to the entire troop if it can target 4 or more creatures.

Here's a fun creature to use for your #pathfinder2e game! The city guard squad is perfect for smaller patrols around the city, working together to enforce the law!

I love working on these squads and they're perfect for introducing the troop rules early!

I haven't posted a piece of homebrew in a while and I want to get back on that so here's a free #pathfinder2e creature!

Based on the Archer Sentry from NPC Core, 4 archer sentries work in tandem to snipe down their foes!

Inspired by the Bloodrager from War of Immortals, I present the Wrymwrath barbarian class archetype for #pathfinder2e!

Instead of harvesting the blood of your foes, you Unleash your Draconic Fury on enemies! You infuse your rage into your spells!

The wyrmwrath archetype didn't fit within the character limit of the blusky alt text so I have linked it below as a google doc so it's easier for e-readers! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YwncefG72l1vI9KRLVd4OsCf1qbuhEPopkEticPCL0U/edit?usp=sharing

Working on some fun stuff for @eldritchosiris.bsky.social!

Check out the chronomancy cause for champions in #pathfinder2e!

The champion remaster really allows us to explore new avenues for the champion class! Can't wait to show you the other 2 we have written!

I decided to start making a spell recommendation list for each #pathfinder2e tradition to help new players get a specific theme of caster without being overwhelmed by a million spells!

Today we have the "Everything Nature" primal caster! Perfect for someone who wants to lean into the nature trope!

Sounded like people wanted a dangerous aquatic/amphibious boss fight for Pathfinder 2e for a pirate game

I present to you...the Mythical Dragon Turtle!

Not sure how I feel about mythical after Mythic being confirmed for 2e so if you have an alternate idea, let me know!

A new pathfinder 2e creature has come roaring around and that's the Fujiwhara!

I'm not done making troops and wanted a fun high-level creature.

What happens when 4 elemental hurricanes come together? Mass destruction!

Hope you like it!

I created a new enemy type in Pathfinder 2e called mythic! I hope you enjoy the Mythic Fire Giant & Mythic Ancient Brine Dragon!

Mythic creatures are great for boss fights or mixing things up with iconic creatures

Mythics have 2 phases and get new abilities once they pass a threshold!

Enjoy!

It's that kind of day where I thought about troops too much in Pathfinder 2e and now you get a free stat block! Presenting the Centaur Stampede!

I hope you are enjoying these gangs of enemies!

Thank you Brandon Chang for the Art!

Would anyone like a free pathfinder 2e creature to use? A gang of ogre warriors appears!

This is perfect to learn troop rules in a smaller capacity but also leveling up the threats of ogre's in your game!

Try running an Ogre Boss with this gang! It's so much fun!
