Will faction feats have hooks in Pathfinder Society mods kind of like how some of the character background feats had hooks in various Adventure Paths? I hope so! I always really liked that aspect of them in the APs.

Has there been any official or unofficial word about the relative difficulty of scenarios for Pathfinder Society? As a veteran of both Paizo's published adventures and other living systems (LG I'm looking at you!), I'm curious where Pathfinder Society will fall.

Not having any of the 3.5 supplements can make it hard to make powerful characters, and super mind-bendingly difficult mods aren't really very fun, so I'm hoping that the mods have an emphasis on the FUN with a little dash of difficulty in there.

I'm heartened by the mention that the DM should try to make the mods work even after the party might make a plot point screwup (a huge problem with a lot of the RPGA mods I've played).

One of the biggest complaints I have with 3.5 is the lack of things for fighters to do. The combat maneuvers introduced in the later 3.5 supplements helped, and I think that the ideas Wizards put forth in Tome of Battle are also good ideas. I'm also excited about what I've heard on how weapons will work in 4th Edition.

I think that it's essential that the Pathfinder RPG have increased combat things for fighter types to do. I'd like to see a combination of skill-based things (which players love to do, but the rules don't really account for, like tumbling around, climbing things, jumping, etc.) and maneuvers (yes, spells for fighters!).

Looking at the new Fighter progression in the Alpha release, while I'm happy that Fighters are finally getting SOMETHING at every level, I don't feel like +# bonuses are exciting and sexy enough.

Is there a list or some place on the website I can look to find the bonus downloads available for Pathfinder? I seem to remember there being some maps, or something, but I can't find them easily.

I just noticed that all the GameMastery mods and Pathfinder "issues" are listed for preorder on Amazon.com. In the past, I recall it being pretty much impossible to order stuff through Amazon. Is this just Amazon zeal or are they actually planned to be offered through them?
