Congrats!
NOW LET THE SCOURING BEGIN
Core Class Archetypes
Archetypes come with alternate class features that can be swapped out for standard class features as long as the prereqs are met.
Barbarians have a number of them listed there, and it looks like they each come with their own set of powers, likely rage powers?
The archetypes are:
Brutal Pugilist
Drunken _________
Elemental Kin
Hurler
Invulnerable Rager
M_______ Fury
Savage Barbarian
Superstitious
_________ Warrior
edit-oops, looks like the new powers aren't necessarily tied with the archetypes.
Bard: Same deal.
Arcane Duelist
Archivist
Court Bard
_____ Magician
Sandman
Savage Skald
Sea Singer
__________ Performer
Paladin:
Hospitaler
Undead Scourge
Looks like characters can take on more than one archetype at a time too. Hmmm... Looks like there are some restrictions on that as well depending on what each archetype replaces.
I wonder if there will be archetypes listed for the six new classes.
Widows and orphans may or may not be getting some love in the book. That note is a bit vague in its purpose.
The art spread for the Races chapter features Harsk facing off against some goblins. Have we seen this piece before? Is it new? I can't recall it offhand. (looks like it's likely reused, I recognize the art on the New Rules page)
KINGMAKER SPOILERS!!! NOW I KNOW THERE'S LIMESTONE IN THE CAMPAIGN!! :(
But seriously, congrats. Go hit a bar together this Friday and have a montage looking back on the experience, like on Cold Case.
I suspect I'll be seeing the art director's status in my nightmares. Those gnashing jaws and that burning glare...

Hmmm, I wonder what that word under Erik's pen is ... ?
I think I know the feeling.

I hope we don’t have too many widows or orphans!
Widows are too-short last lines of a paragraph, orphans are when you have the first line of a paragraph as the last line on a page.

Anyone else suspecting Cultured Warrior is going to be an archetype for Fighter? (ie: lose a feat, get skill points)

I'm curious about the Cleric archetypes. I can bet that one of them will have Heavy Armor Proficiency ;-)

9 odd acrhetypes per class makes me very happy!
That's a lot of customisation. Also I think we can see the coloured versions of the Cavalier, and someone wearing all brown, The alchemist maybe? In the photo with the core rulebook open on the desk.
EDIT: Oddly they don't look Wayne Reynoldsey, so maybe their archetype art!

I'm actually on Neil Gaiman's Sandman, but the Spider-man super-villain comes up as well. Hogarth, you do have some imagination ")

I'm most curious about the number of fiction titles referenced on the Fiction Wyrmling. I see "Wolves" on there, but what are all the others!?

The three Planet Stories books that are due out this summer.

Oh yeah. As excited as I am about those, I was hoping for some super-secret Pathfinder fiction that was going to be announced soon. :-?

Yes, some of those are initials, and I was squinting to see if I could make them out and decode them for some fiction secret.

You mean you slew a figurative editorial dragon right? Normally, I wouldn't say anything, but the dragon is editorial in nature. (Editorial Subtype, perhaps?)

For us editors, it was very literal. Hence the scary, scary dragon picture. Love the comic though - going to have to check more of those out. :)

It's new! Hope you like goblins! And knives. And gnomes. And knives.

You're SO not the only one. *shudder*

Looks like the GMG cover too me, and I'm too lazy to go downstairs and check.

So does this mean the whole Paizo staff will be sleeping the next few days and the offices will be left undefended... er, I mean, on holiday leave?

The most direly needed archetype, for me, is a magic-free ranger. I wonder if there is one, and if so what is it like?

There seems to be a mystery/bonus message in photo six - not in the book content but the post-it note written by Mona. The purple highlighter obscures part of the message - seems to say "____ it. I'm going home."
Is the first letter a ..... F? Is that right?
