Roll a d8, and then another d8? I guess? The Brass, Silver, Gold path is the (ascending) social status of the character.

Strength gives bonus to Athletics skill, to-hit and to-damage and determines carrying capacity; Dexterity gives bonus to a bunch of Skills, to AC, to Reflex Saves, ranged (or Finesse weapons) to-hit and to Initiative; Constitution gives bonus to Hit Points and to Fortitude Saves; Intelligence...

Well, you wrote that "it was a tabletop..." (italic mine). As I've said, just for completeness! ;-)

Morrus: Delta Green was originally a Call of Cthulhu setting (that, over some time, produced quite a line). Now, it's a stand-alone game working on the Basic engine. Just for completeness' sake!

Yes, you could. Paizo, on the other hand, can't. People's options =\ A business' options.

The concept core seems to be: Classes will give a framework, composed of Signature Skills, Hit Dice, variable access to Weapons/Armours/Skill proficiency, a selection of Class Feats and *some* iconic abilities/Class features (Spells, Cantrips, Orisons, Monk's unarmed combat...). What's not set...

And yet you keep talking 5th edition. As I've already said twice in this thread, I find there's no point for Paizo to keep going after (actual) D&D anymore. The time of edition wars is behind. They should seek another design space or they'll end losing the fight very badly (a fight they will...

Ok. Please, tell me this: how many 20th level martials are needed to do what a single 20th level Wizard can do between Time Stop, Planar Binding and Wish? How many spells can high- level casters throw around per day? When one party member can easily defeat whole encounters single-handedly, then...

Also, this one. 15+ levels (which almost no one ever saw in place before), when full casters begin displaying time-, space- and reality-bending powers almost limitlessly: "no way there's space for impossible in-game things. Martials obviously must do only mundane things. Casters can do...

Things I keep finding funny about these previews' commenters (here and on Paizo): - "These are not the old archetypes! I want them back!". You're ignoring the fact the old archetypes' concept of "take Y class feature instead of the baseline X feature" is wholly substituted by the new Class Feat...

Probably Sam Manley.

Nope. It's the same. Its just that Morrus hasn't specified the only one per round thing about Flurries.

No. A Monk can only Flurry once per round (we don't know if there are later levels' Feat that improve on this). The other attacks ("Strike" action) suffer all from a bigger malus too, being at -8. But you have to remember that those attacks, while probably hitting less, are possible from Level...

Context is your friend, here. A typical (?) 25-points-buy PF1 Monk (human) probably has STR 16, DEX 14, WIS 16 (CON 14, INT 12, CAR 8?). So, at Level 1: to hit +3 (BAB is 0), Flurry at +1/+1, AC 15. He can flurry only if he stands still and full attack. A PF2 STR-based Monk is looking to get...

Personal opinions (on the flavour of the class) aside, how's that "worse" than the 3.X Monk?

If the farmer has got to Legendary, he would actually have at least +18 (before characteristic modifier) and, probably, 7 specific Skill Feats. He would be able to do all manner of amazing things with his skill, not even needing to roll at all for the majority of tasks, while the Level 20...

There ain't no "Streetwise" skill in 3.X. I guess it will have a function combining Knowledge (Local) and Knowledge (Nobility & Royalty), perhaps with a twist of Gather Information (that was consolidated into Diplomacy in PF1). Regarding Performance: we already know it's used as a Downtime...

Because it's not really sounding like a particularly egregious 5th edition variation at all. I mean, yes, they're both iterations of the same game, but, apart from terminology, the implementation is quite different (again, for two different engines working on the same conceptual space of "d20...

[Sarcasm]Oh, look, a very informed user who thinks WotC invented everything and has no clue those things has been a staple of (for example) King Arthur's Pendragon and The One Ring Roleplaying Game (long) before Wizards adopted them. [\end sarcasm] Yeah, good ideas keep being passed around in...

I would suggest to change all the "B/X" references to "BECMI". The former usually designates the Moldvay/Cook Basic & Expert sets, while the latter is used for the Mentzer edition, for which the original Creature Catalog was writte, and which was compiled and edited by Aaron Allston as the...
