I do find it a little weird that that this pdf says "The cleric possesses a single benefit most other characters do not: the ability to wear heavy
While this is true, it does not mention the fact that a cleric does not start out with proficiency with heavy armor.
Frog God Games must have purchased the series because in August 2011 they are releasing 'The Tome of Horrors Complete' a 1000 page massive hardcover with all the monsters from Volumes 1, 2 & 3 for the Pathfinder rules (and the same book is available separately using the rules for the Sword & Sorcery rpg..an old school circa 1974 D&D clone). http://www.talesofthefroggod.com/index.php/products/the-tome-of-horrors
Yes this particular problem has been identified in the errata now. The errata now says "Page 414—In the Doors section, under Secret Doors, remove the last sentence of the first paragraph." The sentence in question says "Elves have a chance to detect
So Elves NO LONGER have the chance to detect secret doors that they used to have.

I pre-ordered "HERO System—6th Edition Complete Library: Character Creation/Combat and Adventuring" print edition. These are the 2 core books for the new Hero 6th Edtion. The problem is...is that the books are, apparently, available SEPARATELY (ie you can order them now from the Paizo store)...but not together as a set (like the one I pre-ordered from the Paizo store). Why is the 'Complete Library' not available yet...but the separate books are? At least this is what it looks like...since "HERO System—6th Edition Complete Library: Character Creation/Combat and Adventuring" is still apparently only available for 'preorder'.
well..darn...there goes my chance to playtest this book..I'm not gonna experiment with a variation of 3.5 that has no index. This game requires it as far as I'm concerned. I WAS going to try it as part of a new campaign I'm running..and if it seemed to work out I'd pick up the final hard cover version. Probably not going to now.
I finally decided to take a look at the Pathfinder Beta version, and I printed it out (so I can actually read it, I don't know about you but I need hard copy). Anyways I noticed, to my shock, that there's no index. A lack of an index makes this handbook practically unplayable for me. I quite often refer to the index in my regular 3.5 players handbook, and with a new book I would have to learn all over again where everything is. Are we going to see an index anytime soon?? |
