I am aware that WBG comes with 4 pregen goblins. The group I usually have at my PFS nights may be 5 or more. It is possible for me to legally run WBG with 5 players or is 4 the absolute table limit for that module. Thanks you all your help in this and my many other questions I have approached the community in the past.
Thank you. I wanted to make sure before I set up my backup plan for my game tomorrow night. I found 2 pregens Stumpbiter and Buggy Bugeye as I saw somewhere that these two were the recommended additional pregen goblins.
At my table, when I've had 5 or 6 PCs, that's been one or two duplicate characters. I've explained that somebody went out into the swamp one day, and ... well, two came back in. Obviously, one is a fake (the term "evil twin" doesn't seem to apply to goblins) and it's up to them to determine which is the real Chuffy or Rita...
From what I read of it, it looks like it is going to be a blast. Can I use the two pregens that I found online, do they have to be duplicates of the ones with the module, or does it matter how I get the extra players in the module as long as I am using pregens?
wouldn't that be on the fine print of that boon - as in this boon has to be the first but We Be Goblins somewhere in the next three... :)
certainly if I had such a boon I would look forward to playing We Be Goblins... perhaps with a whole table of folks with such boons...
(I suspect regular PFS Goblins would be a bit different from the pregens in the module - but I can only imagine how much fun it would be to play with them through the module.. and the Chronicle sheet would be quite inspirationally flavorful.
Can the winners of the Goblin Race boon, play this mod with his goblin PC?
I did. Whether or not that was strictly legal doesn't really matter. I risked my real character and the only "extra" reward I got out of it was the chance to play my goblin.
Two? I'm aware of four new pregens for We Be Goblins bringing the party up to eight. I'm not sure if all four of them are PFS legal but I know the core four are.
Wich of these might not be legal?
Buggy Bugeye
Stumpbiter
Jakkit
Miss Gojangles?
I must admit that one or both of those last two does seem a bit powerful compared to the other Gobboes.

Buggy & Stumpbiter are the two that most people would accept as official. They can be downloaded here; that post is by the San Francisco VC, and states that they are designed by Jason Bulmahn.
Thanks Paz. Jakkit is a goblin ranger who hates animals (so practicaly everything in this scenario) and Miss Gojangles is a goblin sorceress with the aberrant bloodline who likes to burn stuff. A lot.
They both lack the Pathfinder Modules heading at the top of the page and the "additional pregens created by Jason Bulmahn & Michael Azolino" statement at the bottom. They do have a bit of smallprint at the bottom that states the following.

However the smallprint is very small and somewhat greyed out so it would be easy to overlook. I found the lack of header and lower border suspicious but just thought I'd check. I didn't want to have to decipher that smallprint.

That smallprint is just the text from the Paizo Community Use Policy, which is used by fan-created material. As such, those pregens are highly unlikely to be official, or suitable to be used in a PFS-sanctioned session. I certainly wouldn't allow them.
