Hello players and GMs alike!

Short journal for now. I have Pathfinder, and have read it fairly thoroughly.

The final verdict? Not yet. Not until it's properly playtested. But for now, I can safely say that if you're a huge fan of 3.5 and want to try something fresh without losing all your rules, supplements, campaigns, sweat, tears etc... definitely check it out.

For now, let's just say it's everything you already know and love- 3.5 through and through, but with a twist. The rules have been fine tuned and polished to a shine. Classes have been rewritten to maximize usefulness without destroyed (or even denting) the core design of the class. Races have better perks, and monsters seem to have the potential to run a bit smoother due to the rule rewrites.

A quick and very good example. Remember how much of a pain some of the combat tactics can be? Grappling, tripping, disarming, sundering, and bull rushing all have similar rules that tend to involve more than a couple rolls, if not glances in the PHB. Almost everything now works off of a separate system similar to attack vs AC: Combat Maneuver Bonus (CMB) and Combat Maneuver Defense (CMD). By utilizing this very efficient system (and the appropriate feats,) the exact same goal can be accomplished in Pathfinder as in 3.5 with significantly less headache, while still being fair and balanced.

Potentially a more in depth review on the horizon!

Either check out the core rulebooks (only two of them, the Core Rulebook and Bestiary) at your local hobby retail shop, or check them out here on the internets: [link]

You can actually purchase the books for a small amount in .pdf form there as well.
