I've played a few AP's and at Gencon I played five scenarios this year. I've never GM'd any of the games and have a few questions.
1) Can I run any of the previous years scenario's even though it's season 6?
2) Do I do character creation rules for season 6 or the season of the scenario I'm running?
3) What if the players play for a faction that is not covered in the faction mission for this scenario?
4) Do faction awards still get handed out at the end of the mission for a previous season? What about Prestige/XP?
5) Do Boons only come from conventions?
Thanks!

1) You can run scenarios from any season, unless the scenario has been retired.
2) Use the current character creation rules, Additional Resources and rulings.
3) That's fine, they don't get any extra faction boon but get prestige for the primary and secondary success conditions and other rewards that are not tied to a faction. In the last couple of seasons this has not always been as clearly described as it should be.
4) See the Secondary Success Conditions for seasons 0-4 to assign PP for primary and secondary success conditions. The Season 6 guide gives equivalent factions to receive faction-specific boons, but you don't give out any Lantern Lodge, Sczarni or Shadow Lodge specific boons. All characters get XP.
5) Some boons are not tied to conventions. There have been boons for owning novels, playing in a certain period around a holiday, earning sufficient prestige over a season, earning GM stars and no doubt others.

The only difference is the legal race swap this year. Aasimar and Tieflings have tagged out, Nagaji Kitsune and Wayangs have tagged in.
If you go to Linky the retired scenarios are off by themselves in a sad, sad corner.
