Hi.

I have one account for sale (preferably via paypal). I am selling due to a combination of reasons. One being that I am unemployed and could use the money, and secondly I simply don't have the patience to see this through, nor the time required to put into this game once we reach EE and beyond.

Greetings

First off: Thumbs up for going separate ways from Wizards. I never thought I would leave D&D, but Pathfinder just seems better in many ways, and although I was dismayed at first when I heard that Paizo was considering doing a 3.75 instead of jumping on the 4th ed I have been just taken by storm by this new initiative. :)

To my question: I have been away from the D&D game from quite some time (mostly played AD&D, and a bit of 3.0), and I want to start DM'ing for a small group of friends, starting off with the first Pathfinder series.

It is possible just to play with the alpha rules of Pathfinder RPG, and use those as the basis for a new Pathfinder-campaign? I do have a set of core 3.5 books that I can use for further reference, but instead of reading up on the whole DMG and PHB I would rather just start playtesting Pathfinder RPG with my new group.

I know that this is alpha stage, and more stuff will be added later, but my basic question is simply this: Are the rules complete enough to use as "stand-alone", or are they simply adjustments to the 3.5 rules which requires me to be fairly aquainted with the 3.5 system, going back to the core books all the time?

I hope I can just use the rules as they are. I am aware that a lot of details are not in place yet, but I guess that is fine for a "newbie"-group - too many rules will just kill the speed.
