Enjoyed your insight into the dedications & skill feats, especially since you argued/valued some feats that the other guides floating around have brushed off. Fingers crossed once it's updated @Koslos makes it available to the ravenous public again. :p

To The Far Wanderer: Switching preview to 32bit worked for me as well. This looks like the duct-tape pdf repair for now. Thank you so much for the help! Acrobat was getting rather cumbersome.

Sounds excellent/count me in! Once I can get a hold of you via skype I'll send a character sheet/background your way.

Wow thanks so much for this tsunami of amazing information and (as usual) products! Happily waiting for my Box to arrive as we speak ^^.

As a quick side note: The hyperlink for the "central canada comic con" links to: c4con.vom.

If you're still looking for players this is right up my alley! What classes do you already have? I'd love to play an imp.unarmed investigator rogue or a wood ele wiz.

Thank you all for all of the help! It looks like I'm going to have about 20-30 people I need to introduce PF and d20 too, but with all of your advice it shouldn't be too difficult.

I totally missed the release of the Beginner Box, and that looks to be exactly what I need to ease all these players into PF...literally use it for what it was made for. Since that won't be out until later this month (and I need to find a local sponsor to help cut the cost of buying 4-5 boxes) I'm going to try to meld what Fog/Caleb mentioned into one wholly mental introduction to roleplaying/pathfinder.

I'll just use powerpoint + group activities to introduce the concepts of character acting and try to instill some element of "fantasy" into it. I think we have a room I can use that has 1ft squares on the ground... PF with human minis on a 'map' would be awesome as an intro xD

I'll post up the final version of the powerpoint, though it will be rather barren text wise; since no one loves walls of text.

Again, thank you all for the great ideas and the help!

If you are still planning on running some games I, and possibly a few other players from a McGill pathfinder group, would be very interested in getting involved in organized play. We have players who are 10year + veterans, and players who just started d20 this month.

Your link didn't work, friend. :/ Can't see it to give any input.

Aha, I had it set to Private. Fixed now.

I have recently started a role-playing club at my University, and some whatever reason we have had quite the turn out of interested individuals! The catch is that most of them have never played RPGs at all, let alone table top D20s.

I worry about introducing the massive amount of information that comes with learning to play a RPG. Getting them to understand the rules without making it seem like another class lecture seems difficult...

To remedy this I've started working on a Prezi presentation (like powerpoint but it zooms around). The link to the online presentation can be found here: http://prezi.com/lpwltwlrex61/pathfinder-rpg-intro/

If anyone has any recommendations of what to do, any advice on what to include in the prezi, or any other comments at all I would be most appreciative.

Thanks for all the help!

Thanks a Bunch! I have one addition to make: if he successfully hits and the touch spell is resisted (due to SR), would the spell then bounce? Or would that allow for a full spellstrike against a second target?

Thanks again :)

I have a player in my game who plays a Magus and wants to use Spellstrike w/ Bouncing Spell. His interpretation is that if he misses with his spell strike he could redirect the attack to another enemy within melee range, and since the description says "has no effect on its intended target (whether due to spell resistance or a successful saving throw)" I voted no.

I want to do right by the player, and since Im new to GMing I would love some help here.

Thanks!
