thanks for turning this on.

what are our options for tiers and what levels are we all playing. Lore is 3rd.

The new kid is happy to go along with the majority decision. :)

Ruprecht, Lore, Grim, Tomoe, Telurion, all Level 3, I think.

Eadie is a Fighter 2, so I make our APL = (5x3+2)/6 = 2.83

EDIT: If we play down (or up for that matter), does that mean the Level 3's get mid-tier gold under the new rules?

The Exchange

Half-Goblin

ok- looking at the latest Guide to PFS Organized Play it looks like you all will definitely be playing in the 4-5 subtler. You will also get the Out of Subtier gold for this game as well. Such is the new season of PFS. Its still over 1K gold, so you will be ok.

Guide to Organised Play wrote:

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.

So just to be sure I understand … our APL of 2.83 rounds to 3, which is right between tiers.

Therefore with six PCs, we have to play 4-5 BUT with the scaling adjustment for 4 players.

Is that right, DrGabe?

That is correct.

Grim, when you say Wayfarers, I assume you mean the Ray Bans smoked goggles brand made famous in the 80’s by Miami Vice and Rick Astley?

Eredax/Telurion, can you please tell me what that was?
After a quick check up foryur char i did not see any mistakes.

The Exchange

I think it was that he is playing Telurion already in another game. As we understand, you can't play in two separate PbP games at the same time.

I now make our APL = (4x3+2x2)/6 = 2.67, which still rounds to 3, under the Season 5 rules.

2 fighters, 2 healers, crytbreaker alchemist and bard makes a pretty well-balanced party.

Ruprecht, Lore and Grim have been through most of Thornkeep 1-2 with 4, which I think is a testament to their ability and teamwork. I have adventured with Grim before and I know he will have my back, and I’m pretty sure he knows I will have his. ;)

I think teamwork and party cohesion is very important in getting through these scenarios. I am very comfortable with this group.
Having said that, I think we need to make a decision in gameplay and GO! :) What do you all think?

I agree with all of your points Eadie.
Hard but simple choice here: go to the docks and pay up or try your luck avoiding the patrols?

A note on procedures

During a combat, please check the Initiative Order. This is usually at the bottom of the post. PC's will have their names in bold. That indicates the active PC who need to post a turn. I personally don't care which order PC's go. Player A may go first in one round while player B in the next. That is ok. At a face to face table that would end up with a delay action with those two players switching spots in the order. As long as you are going before the NPC there is no real difference.

What does matter is people posting extra turns in one combat round. Please only post once per round. It is acceptable that if you will unavailable for a day or so to post your turn or a series of turns. Please do that in the spoiler tags to help avoid confusion.

I will summarize a players turn with narrative. If your turn isn't summarized then one of two things have happened: (1) I made a mistake, please post using a Spoiler tag labeled "GM" or send me a PM. I'll correct the mistake. (2) You made a mistake. Its cool it happens, but I'll just ignore the action and move on (much like at a real table).

Hello everyone,

I know the timing is not the best, but I wanted to let you all know that starting from today (still have a couple hundred Km to travel) I will be GMing at a Pathfinder Society Con over here in my neck of the woods.

This will last until Sunday evening, and even though I wil probably have access to my PC, I cannot guarantee any decent posting during this period.

Next Monday I will be back in business.

Cheers,

Sorry, Tomoe I don't quite understand the question.

If you're asking can you play a Level 3 in a Tier 1-2 exclusive like We Be Goblins! Or Master of the Fallen Fortress, I believe the answer is no.

If you're asking do you get out of tier gold for successfully completing a sub-tier 1-2 as a Level 3 in a 1-5 or 1-7 Tier scenario, the latest Guide to Organized Play (pages 32 and 35) seems to say yes.

Hello again everyone,

I am back from the CON - was really an interesting one, as we do not usually have events with this dimension over here.

And man, it was CRAZY fun running the multi-table Siege of the Diamond City - I had never done anything similar, it was quite unique. Won't comment it any further so as not to spoiler it for the ones that haven't played it.

Anyways, I'm BACK!

I speak mandarin, called putonghua, but with a strong southern accent.
Don´t really speak the southern dialects though. Especially not cantonese.

My english is so "strong", sometimes i can´t tell english or german. Especially after reading or watching a movie sometimes, i just forget which language it was. It´s really funny^^

Oh, I can understand this.

I studied French and German in high school. I had my final oral exam for both classes on the same day, and kept getting the two mixed up. (Sadly, I’ve forgotten it all now – I think languages are a real ‘use it or lose it’ skill).

Technically English is my second language though. My first is Strailyun.

English Translation:
Australian.

So, is it wrong that I read everyone’s character speaking with an Australian accent? ;)

Shrouded in hooded robes, the red-faced young woman sits in the dust before the circle.

She gathers an upturned green dragon’s skull and commences the ju-ju ceremony by adding:

♆ A pinch of mud from a sorcerer’s tomb, in honor of the dwarves,
♆ Fresh water from the Glass River, in honor of green gremlins,
♆ The essence of light from a lady’s smile, in honor of the gnomes,
♆ Salt water from the Shackles and snow from Irrisen, in honor of dual-cursed oracles,
♆ Blood from the oni, in honor of the kitsune,
♆ Wrathful shadow from a demanding medusa of iron, who lives in a manor starting with ‘G’ … in one of the corrupted realms of the Abyss … in honor of the elves.

She stirs the mixture and holds it aloft, before consuming it. Then she DARES speaketh the Blue Lord’s name …

I bet there are some razmiran forces showing up and there is a chance of messing up the scenario. That somehow makes a lot of sense.

@DrGabe: Waiting for confirmation if Quinn Reed will go look after the Stolen heir or not^^

Is there some function that points Contributors and staff members at threads where their name is told? Or is that just general narcisism that they are daily searching their name via the search function? :D
This scenario somehow points me to my next buy: Gloves of reconnaisance, THE most OP item in the game^^

The ritual is my (admittedly obtuse) way of saying sorry to Mike Shel, based on his body of work. I have attempted to honor a great group of people at the same time.
