From the news thread... Perhaps this is a wise suggestion. The last thing I want to imply is that the 'Lite' PHB is a Wizard's official release, or even a "publication" really. I imagine they look at our mad scrambling and interpretations and giggle "just wait to they see how it really works...

I think the original Careful attack was +4 attack, and kept the +4 damage (from Dexterity). The newest one from the WotC site keeps the +4 attack (which I removed accidently), and removes the Dex from damage. I'll put the +4 to attack back in. Sound good? This process has taught me that...

I've added a link from the PHB Lite thread to the compilation. If you need the link updated give me a shout. Cheers, Verys

I've added links for the Raiders of Oakhurst Reloaded and Keterys' monsters to the first post of the PHB Lite thread now too, thanks.

Thanks for the link. I'll replicate my post here: ... As the guy that compiled the 4e Lite PHB, I have to stress that YOU CANNOT JUDGE 4E BY THE PHB LITE, it is assembled from glimpses of outdated preview material and some pretty clever guess-work by fans, but that is all. It gives impatient...

I can't agree with you more. As the guy that compiled the 4e Lite PHB, I have to stress that YOU CANNOT JUDGE 4E BY THE PHB LITE, it is assembled from glimpses of outdated preview material and some pretty clever guess-work by fans, but that is all. It gives impatient fans a single place to see...

Version 1.2 is now available. Thanks everyone that found an error and sent it in. Keep them coming! Thanks also to Neceros, for letting me append his character sheet to the PHB Lite, it somehow feels more complete with sheets at the back :) I've added Hunter's Quarry as you've described it...

Not that there aren't going to be errors and omissions in the PHB Lite, but under Weapon Proficiency (p 23), the source I copied from just said +1 attack bonus, and nothing about a damage bonus as far as I can see. If someone knows of additional information they can add to the Weapons section...

This is how it was presented in the Design and Development article in the "Try it now" section. In the Scalegloom rules appendix under "Hit Points, Healing, and Dying" (p24) though, their is no mention of anything special happening on a roll of 20 on 1d20. If the rules in Scalegloom are...

I've updated the first post in the PHB "Lite" thread to include links to the adventures bagginswagon and RigaMortus2 have posted to try and make it simpler for DMs to run pre-4e unofficial games. I've also included links for Neceros' character sheets, and some other resources. The PHB Lite...

Seems to download okay for me still - anyone else having troubles?

I've reformatted the section as you've suggested, making it easier to read. Thanks for catching this. I've added it to the Ranger section as a Class Feature. I'll upload 1.2 in a while. I want to add something about non-combat skill challenges - if anyone wants to give a shot summarizing...

I've changed the tiefling entry in v1.2 that I'm working on now. As for concealment, I haven't seen much yet...?

I compiled the PHB Lite, and I'd like to improve it with feedback from users. How could the Healing Surges entry be clarified for you? Let me know and I will make the changes in the next update. Cheers, Verys

Something else that will have a narrow gap is the HP themselves, between defenders and controllers. If we assume (and this isn't the only interpretation of the pre-gen characters, btw) Defenders get a fixed 6 HP/level, and Controllers get a fixed 4 HP/level (with no constitution modifiers, as...

Neceros has updated his 4e Character Sheet Beta , which works really well with the PHB "Lite" for those that want to try and make their own pre-4e 1st level characters.

I DM for and play in two groups, one is full of primarily casual gamers, the second is a mix of casual and "hard-core". I'm in the middle of the Savage Tide campaign in FR for the first group, and I'm just finishing the first adventure in the Runelords Pathfinder AP for the second, so I'm...

Thanks everyone for your comments. I've made many changes and updated the PHB "Lite" to version 1.1 (follow link in post 1). I'll try and comment on some things here.... Done Adjusted to: Fighter 6 Rogue 5 Wizard 4 I've added a bonus power to the half-elf entry. I've changed it to this...

4E PrRC v2.7 *FINAL Updated May 29.08* (right click, save link as...) Was the 4E PHB Lite Final Update, Version 2.7 of the Pre-release Rules Compilation is now available. May 29, 2008 With only a week to go until the Core Ruleset is available, v2.7 will be the final update for the PrRC...

Or perhaps those are the levels you get a feat instead of a power, similar to Saga's alternating Feat and Talent progression? Since you get a feat every other level, it could explain why there is no level 12 or 14 Wizard power? Other dead levels could be for the paragon path, like level 11?
