Damn... ah well, c'est la vie. I still can't get the docs Dl'd stupid servers

Me neither. Sigh.

This whole thing isn't increasing my interest for 5e "sigh"

@walking_dad and [MENTION=360]drothgery[/MENTION] - try again. It seems to be working now

Yep, I just downloaded the files with no trouble.

Still sad we can't try out the playtest rules here, though.

It would be one thing if the playtest was actually limited in any way, but anyone who's willing to sign up (and be patient) can get the playtest materials legitimately; I can't think they're really hiding anything here...

 

[Walking Dad]

Got the playtest material and I like it. The pregen characters remind me of the one in the 3e starter box.

After a quick read, I find myself feeling pretty optimistic about the direction this new iteration is going as well. It feels very simple, very streamlined. I will definitely pay attention to how things progress.

Been quietly following along.

At the other link it says you can't post stats, quoted text, or mechanics.

Well that sounds like a great way to playtest something to me. The players don't know the rules and just RP. The DM takes care of the sheets and tells us what and when to roll.

I'm in for something like that.

Problem is that it still has feats, trained skills and spells. Not knowing even the names of it makes it virtually impossible to play.

Would anyone being interested in a Caves of Chaos game using the Pathfinder Beginner Box? I always wanted to try the simplified rules and with the reduced list of options, my brain will hurt less than trying to allow every option available.

So . . . are we back in business?
