Pathfinder RPG Beta Preview #4

Thursday, July 31, 2008

The Beta Playtest Edition of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game almost here. In just a few short weeks you will be able to buy your own print copy of the 408 page book, or download a free PDF. To top it off, over 25,000 gamers have downloaded the Alpha version of the Pathfinder RPG in one of its various incarnations. To celebrate these milestones, it is time to take a closer look at some of the pages of the Beta. Click here to download the preview (564 KB zip PDF).

The first spread is from the Feats chapter and it shows off a few new feats along with some changes to some of the existing feats. The second spread shows some of the equipment chapter, new to the Pathfinder RPG. Finally, the third spread is from the greatly expanded magic item chapter. There is a mountain of revised material in this chapter, and these items are only a small sample.
Next week, we'll take a look at the Beta playtest process and give you a look at the final character sheet. Enjoy.
