I've got 3 night shifts to study the pdfs, followed by four days off which will likely see a couple of sessions.  Will also report in.

Someone with pdf access: does it look to be internally balanced between the classes?

Is anyone else having problems with the download?

Took a little while to get the download, but after a single F5, it worked fine.

I've only browsed a single pregen character so far (dwarf cleric of Moradin), but it looks like they're actually returning to the 3.x feel.  I'll have a much better idea about class balance tomorrow morning, after my 12-hour night shift which will mostly be spent reading and analyzing.

Maybe there should be a beta 5th edition section added to the boards, for discussing this?

My download link keeps bringing me to an error page ("bad request").  Must be broken... :( :(

The actual file remains elusive, like candy that I can't have and don't really want all that much in the first place. The account I used to have doesn't exist any more, except it still does exist because my old username is still unavailable, and the new one I gave them is inappropriate I guess? They okayed it when I took the space out though, so I'm just going to chalk that up to MAD TECHNICAL SKILLZ YO on their part. Mainly because I have to tick the user agreement box to continue and trying to do so brings up a broken overlay with absolutely nothing there. I couldn't read it even if I intended to do so.

Faux-edit: There it is. Apparently it was shy and I just needed to wait 15 minutes to encourage it to appear.

Alright, I'm stumped.  I emailed custserv with "pdf or GTFO" but no response yet.

Can someone who has the pdf please PM it to me????? I'm in the beta test, there should be no copyright issues with sharing.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled drooling over 5e while I wait for an illicit copy of the pdf to appear somewhere to bring you: Guess where Agita was last weekend!

We didn't actually get to look at the LHC proper since it was running at the time and you're not allowed close while it is, but I did get a shot of the security door barring entry.

Were you nervous about the illegally smuggled heart you had in your chest the whole time?

I'm a scientist. I have no heart. That's why I was allowed past.
(It's a "no pacemakers" sign, of course.)

Even as we speak, federal agents are inspecting the both of us for possible black market organ sales.

Now I want to go to tech support for them, look at those computers!

I also now want to ride a bike in the LHC because I'm such a rebel.

And stalk Agita because now I know what he looks like.

Obviously, that's my evil twin, as you can clearly tell from the fact that he has a goatee.
Or some sort of wannabe patch of hair on the chin that tries to pass for one, anyway.

But... But...! You're supposed to be Alien Zombie Lesbian Ninja from Outer Space!
Evidently, we're gonna have to add "in Disguise" to that.
Also, what happened to the "Sir"?  >:(

Compatibility issues with the Lesbian. They're working on a patch, though.
