Hi all,

Can anyone suggest PFS 1st tier scenarios which are high in combat? What I'd like is big, chunky combats with lots of enemies.

Thanks!

Murder on the Silken Caravan comes to mind. It threw quite a few combatants at the party in several of its fights. And it came with a decent story, to boot.

Beyond that, though, most of the ones I can think of topped out at around 4 bad guys per fight, max.

Among the Living, Perils of the Pirate Pact, and Decline of Glory all have some pretty big battles in them.

1 person marked this as a favorite.

Quest for Perfection part 3: Defenders of Nesting Swallow

Spoiler:

1 small battle at beginning, some RP, then one massive battle facing 3 waves of enemies, then an owlbear behind your lines, then the boss

Thanks all!

Rescue At Azlant Ridge from Season 2 is another pretty epic one.

Spoiler:

Mounted horseman, minor dungeon delve, and the the piece de resistance: One player gets to take control of a giant construct and fight a four-armed ape monstrosity while the other PCs battle back waves of angry Charau-Ka (Intelligent savage ape-men). Better when played with The Bloodcove Disguise beforehand.
