Getting back on topic....

I think BB is a great intro into the Pathfinder Core Rules, I just think it needs to progress much like the design and rules layout of the BB. After learning from the BB a customer then picks up the Core Rule Book only to find out its simplicity of design is nothing like that of the BB. In effect you have to go back and re-read the rule book to see if you've got it all right, and at 300 pages + thats a daunting task. BB progression into Core Rules would need to be uniform to make the transition easy for the beginning player.

With that said a book or other boxed set that expands the game with the rest of the core rules content and utilizing the design element of the BB would be a perfect solution and would satisfy needs across the board. It would in effect make the game modular, but compatible with core rules.

That would be a great support product and mesh the BB and its expansion product nicely into the Core Rules, AP's, Modules etc. It would also give players/Gm's a choice on how they progressed with the rules. I can see players showing up to games with core rule books, others with BB and its expansion, both being the same just with different presentations.

Make sense..?

I agree 100%

thanks. I have played it before, but that was when I was trying to understand 1E. And I have done a bit in Pathfinder, but as I didn't understand combat I used a much simpler combat system from a different rp. Well, it worked, and my friends really wanted me to DM for them. They know the game even less.

If anyone in your group wants to use a good basic book that explains all the 3.5 rules clearly that Pathfinder is based on, the Dungeons & Dragons For Dummies 2005 edition is a good resource to use.

By the way, Happy New Year to everyone. This is a great website.

Finally..Now I can go ahead and buy all of the Rise Of the Runelords PDFs.

I can't wait to buy it...

We are having a holiday sale--in January!

Thanks for the info... Is this posted somewhere on the website?

I think an semi human-like insectoid race would be nice... The AD&D Dark Sun campaign incorporated it with a lot of success.

I was disappointed there was no big Christmas Sale on Pathfinder products. Too bad.. I was prepared to buy if the price would come down a bit.

Overall, the guide book is very informative and detailed enough to make want to play in this type of setting. I was fortunate the other day and bought all 6 issues of LOF in mint condition for 45 dollars - I do think the price of this guide was a little pricey... Don't they ever have a sale on Pathfinder products?
