I wanted to tell the guys at Paizo that I am really impressed with the Beg box set. I have played the game since 1979...and the first box set I bought was about then. Was really kind of a joke compared to what you guys have created. Its very well laid out and I can actually see light at the end of the tunnel on getting the entire family playing the game.
One of the things that really was done right was the numbered sections on the character sheets that coincide with the books. Really takes out having to search as its all right in front of you. They took out Aoo...which I think was a good plan to start off since its a but confusing. I am going to cut up the map into sections so that I do not have to let the characters see it all....and it will lay flat (like a good map should). I think the pawns are great even though I wont be using them since we have miniatures. The dice are nice and the box is a great value. All and all, worth every cent of 35.00 bucks.
I am quite sure that my 7 year old daughter will end up with a Unicorn(pegacorn) before its all said an done too. Why?? Cause she wants one and I will have to get it into the game somehow! It is very encouraging that other geeks like me are turning they're kids onto the game. In a world of video games....its a nice break...and encourages the use of the mind.
Anyway.....THANK YOU!! I am so encouraged with what Paizo is doing. They "care" and it shows that its not just a money making machine (like another company I know). The products remind of the days of 1st ed AD&D.......and those were glorious days.
