[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 9722801, member: 725"] I think that the first part is just sloppy from their part, this is information you put on your character sheet: 1D8+3 damage, 2 attacks. The second part I can understand, with 35+ years of Games Workshop games and their WFB, 40k, Necromunda, etc. being so similar across editions, eventually you had 15+ editions you had read/seen/played, and did this edition have an extra attack for action X? No that's the current edition of 40k... When we started D&D 5e up again we had the same issue with years of playing 3e a couple of decades ago, even with the 'update' to 5e 2024 we kept thinking of the 2014 rules. It took a while and it's possible we sometimes still do things wrong (but don't notice)... Yes we read the new rule book, but that's just part of a bunch of information we consume, not just for hobby, but also for work, it seems that old, more used information starts to become more ingrained into our old brains... ;) Getting into PF2e (new Core) from D&D 5e is also kind of difficult for that reason, 1500 pages of text, a LOT of which you can ignore as a player, but it becomes more difficult for the GM. Especially when it's so similar to D&D and other D20 games, but just different enough to be difficult. [/QUOTE]
