yes, oh glorious gods yes!
DAUMN!!! ~spoken in a thick Southern drawl~
So how are we going to get the PDF is there going to be a Pathfinder RPG subscription?
OH HAPPY DAY!!!!
*Dancing the Fat Man Dance*
WOO HOO!
This should be yummy.
...July?
So this comes out before the Rulebook. Interesting. How very first edition :)
...July?
Just ahead of the hardcover core PF RPG. Makes sense. They need to make sure the two are synched. That's two definite purchases for me. Not a bad price either considering it's the equivalent to the typical three core book D&D release.

Noticed that too. I remember happily torturing my PCs original D&D characters with the updated / upgraded monsters from the MM. Boy did they whine. Heh. No problem like that with PF, given the beta. Damn it.
Okay - I can relax now. At least until I see the Paizo bill for the months of June through August. ;P
Now to decide if I need two of them or just one. Decisions, decisions...

F*ck yes
Yes! Yes!
Please tell me that that the various templates will still be useful with this, they were one of the greatest ideas 3.5 came up with.
Another must buy!
Excellent - I am looking forward to it!

Every time I prep an adventure I find it much more convenient to have all the adventure's stat blocks in a single printed document that I can flip through.
To that end, will there be an associated PDF for this product, so that I can cut/paste the stat blocks into another document? That, or a PDF with only the stat blocks would make a nice PF-SRD reference!

I second that, and I generally strongly prefer hard copies of books, but for the bestiary, I would love to have it available as a PDF too!
It must be mine! (Despite the uber-cheezy dracolich cover. I'm hoping it's just a placeholder.)
Mmmm.....yes, clarification on that please. If it is January 2009 then it will have a "final" take on the beasties. But then again, how much effect could that have on the final rules? It is supposed to be compatible with 3.5. Its just a few mechanics to be worked out. I cant see why we cant have the Beastiary now. Gotts go folks....getting creit card and pre-ordering....
You know, only one thing could make this cooler. If every single gribblie were to be illustrated by WAR.
Of course, that's unpossible...but it'd be sooo cool.
While I don't currently plan to ever play the PRPG rules themselves, I still must say that a new take on the core monsters, much like the "Revisited" book(s) would be awesome. I love new fluff and art that will make my players do a double take to figure out what exactly they are dealing with.

I don't believe they'll have room in this book for complete CMR-style reimaginings of all the creatures. While James and Erik have both said that there will be more flavor in this book than there is in the 3.5 MM, it will still be limited to 1-2 pages per monster. They are continuing the Revisited series, however, with Dragons Revisited and Dungeon Denizens Revisited next spring.
Are there new critters, or critters from the Pathfinder modules? Or is it all Pathfinderized-versions of standard critters?

Any plans for teaser art over the next few months?
I'd love to see sneak peaks of the Paizo versions of the chromatic dragons...
I assume that the little nuances that are required since a few rule changes will be in this bestiary right? Things like what critters can be sneak-attacked by rogues and already figured up CMB's right? I am all in baby, just kind of was hoping now that it could be January. July makes more sense however. You need to get rules all finalized and so-forth.
This is so awesome!!!

will there be a PDF available as well?
With pre-order or separate?
I want both!!
A PDF will be available. There will probably be a way that certain people will be able to get that PDf for free along with their print edition, but specifics on that won't be determined for a while yet.

Would that mean "select few" or "pre-ordered" or "subscribed to something or other"?
I am aware that I might be a bit pushy here, but I need to get this done quick before I drool all over the keyboard ;)

Probably one of those three... as I said, specifics on that won't be determined for a while yet. Probably a few months.
