Paizo Announces New System for Pathfinder RPG
New “d21 System™” and Dice in Stores This August
April 1, 2009 (BELLEVUE, Wash.) –Paizo Publishing today unveiled new details of the exciting new rules system that will form the basis for their upcoming Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. The newly christened "d21™ System" uses a new 20-sided die that's numbered from 2 to 21.
"Using the old d20 die, you could roll a 20, but where can you go from there? Where?" asked Lead Designer Jason Bulmahn. "Nowhere. Exactly. With the new d21™ System, now you can roll a 21—one higher."
Paizo will release new d21™ dice along with the new Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook in August 2009. "We're confident that people will enjoy the added excitement afforded by the d21™ System," insisted Publisher Erik Mona. "It's clearly better than games that use d20 dice, because it uses dice that can roll one higher."
