18 days since me last post & still no Pulp Cthulhu - any new ETA?

I'm in the same boat. Running a Horror on the Orient express campaign and my players want to take it in a more pulp direction. Hoping this comes out today or tomorrow so I have time to read through it!

Yes. It is used primarily for magic resistance. 

I hope that doesn't apply to combat and most opposed checks. The bonus/penalty die and opposed rules seem like a much more elegant and modern solution.

I liked the RES Table, but I think it probably should stay in the RQ/BRP Classic line, and the more recent line use Opposed Rolls instead. CoC 7E does it this way, so I think it's only logical that RQ does as well.

Totally agree with this. 

Is this going to be another backerkit situation where we can pre-order the book and the PDF?

Wish I had gotten into CoC earlier so that I could have backed the kickstarter! 

As someone who just started with Choasium RPG's with CoC7e, it seems odd to not pull some of those mechanics and make use of them. Adding +20% to skill checks seems much more fiddly then just awarding bonus/penalty die. 

I know some people do not enjoy the CoC7e changes, but I honestly can't imagine playing CoC any other way after starting here.
