I will post an r11 in this thread before too long, once I've heard about the recent suggested edits/changes. A new version won't be on the Downloads page until it's been thoroughly edited/vetted by Solo and others first.

Here's a proposed r11. The camel, donkey, and mule need cost values.

Equipment Emporium has camels at 50 gp and donkeys and mules at 8 gp each.

Thanks! That seems pretty low (donkeys & mules) compared to even plain old riding horses...

It does. I think the price of camels is a bit low as well. I would be inclined to price donkeys and mules similar to ponies and camels like horses.

I've been looking through the Beginner's Essentials in preparation for a game with new players and was thinking that the Equipment Packs from Equipment Emporium would be a useful addition to help speed up char gen.

I also noticed that the section on Holy Water vs. Undead mentions 1d6 of fire damage, which seems incorrect.

Ok here's r12. Updated prices for camel, donkey, & mule. Also corrected holy water section, and added note on corporeal vs. incorporeal undead.

Hello! My name is Mario and I am from Mexico. I love the basic fantasy role-playing game. I want to share my Spanish translation of "Begginer's essential". I hope this is useful for people who speak Spanish and start playing. Also, I hope to translate something else very soon. :D
