Can I have everyone please post the following info:
1.) Player name for Chronicle Sheet
2.) Character name
3.) PFS Number
4.) Faction
5.) DayJob Roll or that you do not have one
6.) Anything else you might need noted on a Chronicle sheet.
Once I get that from everyone, (I'm trying to get this info at the start so I don't have to look later), Ill open up the game thread and everyone can use this to chat. Still waiting on Feng to determine the Subtier, but otherwise I'm ready to go.
What I mean is, can I actually have the roll. If anything would alter it in the Scenario, I'll keep that in mind. The idea is so that I can start to create the Chronicle Sheets and have them mostly ready to go when the time comes.

I will provide a link to the Chronicle Sheet. What I mean is that I purchased a vanity for 15 PP from the Chronicle for the Fangwood Keep module. It allows me to forego a Day Job roll and take an extra Prestige Point.

I am kicking myself for going with a +2 on my bow instead of just saving up for holy (which I now plan to do).
Oils of bless weapon do work on ranged weapons, right?
Also, I am debating burning a bit of coin to upgrade my cloak and wolf's armor. Or get an amulet to make the wolf's teeth magic. Tough calls I could just start saving for holy, then add the rest later...

Any suggestions?
One of the good things about bows is that you can split up the magic bonuses between arrows and the bow for cheaper, and a decent amount of scenarios offer free magic arrows. Ive seen Frost a fee times, Bane, Holy, and a few others. Also spells like Flame Arrow can be used. Holy is one of the better types for PFS, so if you can afford it, go for it. Maybe even getting a different bow?

Hmm, now the second bow is an idea. If I just wanted to go with a +1 Holy bow it would cost 18,000 in enchantments, 19,000 if I made it adaptive. Adding holy to my current bow would cost 24,000.
Can you make a standard longbow adaptive, or does it need to be a composite bow?
I've gotten no response from the last player I've been waiting on, and they are also not posting in the other game they are in, so I'm going to recruit for one more so we can go. Also, I'm looking up some in for to give out for Knowledge checks, as there are none included. So I will get to that.
We have an Alchemist 11 heading our way. That puts us at 11 + 9 + 10 + 7 (37) / 4 = 9.25, rounded to the nearest whole number = 9. Bing a Season 0 and a 4 person party, you must play down, (7-8).

A question on the amulet of mighty fists for you guys:
It can grant melee weapon special abilities without requiring an enhancement bonus of +1 first. So a holy amulet would cost 16,000 GP. Does this make the attacks count as magical for purposes of hitting incorporeal creatures, or is the +1 necessary to get there?
To be honest, a while back there where a bunch of changes to the AoMF, and I'm not entirely sure how it turned out. I'll research it, but I believe it works exactly like with a magic weapon, so it requires at least a +1, but otherwise can have +1 - +4 equivalent properties. Don't quote me on that just yet, though.<I seriously don't know why they didn't just b%!*$slap someone and make Brass Knuckles work the way everyone outside Paizo knows they should and make it simple>
I've added the map. You can find a link under my name each time I post, as well as at the top of each new page.
I use Google Drawings, because it is pretty simple and because it is free. You do not need an account. I've also set the maps so that you can move your own characters around, and you can utilize some of the tools to draw things like area effects for spells if you like. The other benefit of using Google is that it does not require you to download an app to view it from your phone, (though some phones have trouble moving because of the touch screen interface), and because most people can view it from work or public computers when many other things might be restricted like Roll20.
Just be a little careful when you move, because it will automatically save it afterwards, and there is no undo button. There is, sort of, but it's complicated.
So, that being said, I am always interested in trying to make the experience better or to find better ways of doing things, so if you have any suggestions or tips, feel free. Any questions, likewise feel free. At the end, I'll ask for peoples thought on how everything went, and ways to improve.

Well, with the new guide, there isn't a choice, the Guide outlines when you play up or down.
*Only time you can choose is if, say, six level 3's in a Season 0-3, Tier 1-5. The APL is 3, so they can choose because none are at the level of the higher tier. If it were four 3's, a 2, and a 4, they'd have to play high tier.
The Sub Tiers are 7-8 and 10-11. So 9 is in between, and it's a Season 0.
Determining Subtiers (page 31)
In order to determine which subtier a mixed-level group of PCs must play in, calculate the group’s average party level (APL). Divide the total number of character levels by the number of characters in the party. You should always round to the nearest whole number.
Starting with Season 4, scenarios are designed for six characters and contain instructions on how to adjust the scenario for four-character parties. When the APL of a table is between two subtiers (like APL 3 for a Tier 1–5 scenario), a party of four characters must play the lower tier without any adjustments for party size. A party of five to seven characters whose APL is between two subtiers must play the higher tier with the four-character adjustment.
For scenarios written in Seasons 0 to 3, when the APL is in between subtiers, a party of six or seven characters must play the higher subtier. Parties with four or five characters must play the lower subtier.

Cool, I'm glad you looked it up. I was remembering the 5-7 player sentence from the Season four paragraph and thought it was in the same in both. My bad.
normal.
You are welcome to move you minis around a bit, too, within reason. I usually just sort of place everyone kind of randomly. Every time I asked for marching orders in the past I either never got an answer or everyone would sort of wait for everyone else, so I stopped.
I figured. I actually had both of them on the map already (which is now updated), and once you placed the area, I simple moved them forward from underneath the map. :)
If you select something, right click, and the hover over Order, you can actually place thing on top of others, (or Ctrl+ <- or Ctrl + -> ).

I've got a big weekend trip coming up. 14 hours in the car tomorrow and on Tuesday. If my turn comes up, I am posting my preferred action in the gameplay thread.
So it turns out that the ability is SU, and that means it doesnt function in the Antimagic. Nor does Ki.
Im on phone right now, so Ill fix the map when I get back, or if someone wants to, Right click the map, hit Order, and send to back to bring the Hellcats back up. The Glitterdust is still gone this round though, and if anyone moves into that area when/if it pops back on, they might be affected.

It's ok. I'd rather be done, than drag it out. I'm ok with my coplayers, helping with positioning. I've played with Osric and Thoth's players, and trust their judgement.
Also, I'm hoping to get Ez into an Eyes of the Ten by next weekend-ish.

I will be on vacation starting tomorrow. I won't be posting much until next Wednesday. My daughter is graduating and we are taking her to the beach and camping.
