Pathfinder Pawns: "Curse of the Crimson Throne Pawn Collection" [RPG]

Having just completed a 103-session Curse of the Crimson Throne campaign, what better way to celebrate than a review of the Curse of the Crimson Throne Pawn Collection?  I was very impressed by this collection as it had pretty much every named NPC in the adventure, including some that didn't even have combat encounters associated with them.  It appropriately includes multiple pawns for common members of the various nefarious organizations running around the city, which is incredibly useful (when you need 5 of the same bad guys on the table, it's annoying to only have 1 pawn to represent them!).  The collection also does a good job avoiding overuse of pawns already available in other collections like the various Bestiary boxes (there are some, but only some).  As I sit and think about it, I really can't come up with any examples of important encounters that the set left me hanging for, and that's really the best compliment I can pay.  Definitely worth a purchase.
