I feel with the new chronicle sheet format for Dragons Demand module there needs to be an increase in PFS mode content in future modules or more scenarios per month.

The new content per year was the 26(+ a few extra) scenarios and 6 modules that were PFS sanctioned front to back. Now that modules are not 100% sanctioned they can’t be played front to back with PFS characters and hence we lose the entire module product line if you want to play the whole story as written by your actual PFS character.

Playing bits and pieces of AP’s or modules in PFS mode are extremely un-filling due to major parts of the story being dumped.

It is very rare to see AP’s added to a convention schedule and hence there will be less new content for PFS veterans to play at future conventions. So losing the module line will hurt veteran attendance at conventions due to less new items to play.

So please either increase the scenarios per month to 3 or sanction entire modules front to back as PFS mode.

It's an interesting idea, but I don't see it happening.

1) Playing the entire module in "PFS Mode" can already be done. There is nothing stopping you from playing "Campaign Mode" with a copy of your character and applying credit when you're done. This is the best way to experience playing your character and still get all the experience of the story. Granted, this is not going to work in a convention environment.

2) I don't have the numbers to support this, but if the sales of current scenarios could support expanding production to three per month, it would have been done by now. In fact, I speculate that they received a red light the last time they suggested increasing production and that's why they've worked so hard to sanction existing product.

roysier, you were ahead of your time by a few days.

Giant thread discussing this very topic.

It cropped up the day before yesterday and blew up into a six page thread. There is some good stuff in there, and you should weigh in.

But I think Mystic Lemur is pretty much correct with both his points. Some of us have been clamoring for 3 scenarios a month for quite some time, and so far the response has not been, "We'll do it!" In fact, they've kinda scaled back the last couple seasons, which is depressing.
