If there isnt a Robo chicken mount as a boon, I will be Livid

yeah, and how many times are the PCs going to go in the Bar and have the Bartender yell out "we don't serve their kind in here!" pointing at the Robo-Companions and Robo-Familiar...If there isnt a RobochickenAxebeak mount as a boon, I will be LividFixed it for ya!
Seriously, how cool would it be to be able to put some kind of clockwork template on an Animal Companion or Familiar?
At least as often as they do it for the animals I suspect.
Sounds like a focus on Numeria to me.
That is correct, I heard confirmation from the horse's mouth

Season 6
#6—01: Trial by Machine
#6—02: The Silver Mount Collection
#6—03: The Technic Siege
So what do we know about Season 6?
Sounds like a focus on Numeria to me.
Yeah. Have to admit I figured that would be the case when I saw the August AP announcement. Many were thinking Osirion, but that has not been the pattern the last three seasons.
Here's hoping that they achieve a feel along the lines of Expedition to the Barrier Peaks and avoid the temptation to simply go laser/robot gonzo.
Of course, with the thousands of (supposedly rare) adamantine weapons in characters' hands out there, construct-laden adventures won't be very difficult, I suspect.
Heh. One more follow up I just thought of: Construct-laden adventures will make all those paladins that were spawned by the announcement of Season 5 very sad, I suspect. Paizo has a cruel streak...

I want me an android boon.
Given the power of the android race (+your level to a d20 roll and huge numbers of saving throw bonuses) as well as the level of spotlight-focus that it would be guaranteed to funnel onto that one PC for the genre-bucking nature of the character, I'm guessing that boon will either never exist or be a one-off auction boon.

While I loved Expedition I loved it largely BECAUSE it was a one off. Numeria is definitely an area that I have NO interest in.
I really hope that the robot side is seriously underplayed. I'm already running out of Season 0-5 scenarios to play and run:-)
Despite my thread title, if there are a lot of constructs as opponents as Drogon suggests, I doubt they will have the feel/flavor of high tech "robots with lasers". Probably more like golems and clockwork creatures.

Chris: Will you create multiple versions of the same character then in homage to the dozen or so different versions of that particular movie? :)
Numeria looks very interesting, what will be interesting though is why the Society is going there considering the inhospitably of the country and it's rulers (yaa Warlords!) + the technic league.

Well just take a look at the Adventure Path that releases at Gen Con. this year its Iron Gods. Last year it was Wrath of the Righteous. The year before the big release was the Rise of the Runelords pfs edition.
Rise of the Runelords - Year of the Risen Rune
Wrath of the Righteous - Year of the Demon (Siege of Diamond city even happens kinda in the background of The Worldwound Incursion and vice versa)
Iron Gods - Year of the golem?
Since the PFS releases have been tying into the AP ones, you can bet Numeria will be involved.
Just want to say as a person with absolutely no interest so far in Pathfinder Society, I am extra excited to see these particular Scenarios, especially if they provide more adventure-meat for the Iron Gods AP...

I expect the Decemvirate will have to sort through pages and pages of Chronicle sheets whining about how much they hate it there, how the Technic League keeps asking them to taste things, how wierd that soft glass-like stuff feels, why do they need to deal with a giant metal scorpion, and so on.
Though my characters might not like it there, I'm fairly certain that I will.

Well, the word 'robot' actually comes from an old Czech word, robotnik, meaning 'slave', and they're not slaves. They're very very happy. And not robots.
I do hope there are some new facets being introduced here such as more clockworks and maybe even some gunslinger foes. Sure, I'm probably signing all of my characters' death warrants there, but I hope for a challenge.

You will not be able to play regular scenarios with that character anymore, but there are modules ranging up to 20th level.

Also, some of the season specials have 12+ level tiers.

Year of the Risen Rune was just as much about the Shattered Star module as it was the Anniversary edition of RotR. So it wasn't the sole reason for that naming convention. It's more what the August AP start is going to be.
Yeah. You're just 13th level with 2 extra XP. Playing a module will bump you to 14.2, as most modules award 3 XP.

+1. I'll play it, but honestly, robots and the like have no appeal to me at all in this type of genre. This will be a season of holding my nose while I play.
Now, if the whole robot/construct thing isn't overplayed, then cool - I mean, I'm willing to give it a chance. But, at this point, I'm not overly excited about Season 6.
