What about Reign of Winter's Chron sheet for Rasputin Must Die? That's pretty high level for PFS, but there are WW1-era firearms in that book of the AP. Not sure if any made it to the Chron sheet or not?

Hmmm, there are some undoubtedly interesting weapons in that AP that I might go looking into, but none for firearms. Hrngggg. x_x I'm struggling, because I wasn't sure anything like this existed, but the guy - a Venture Lieutenant - was so convinced that he'd played it. I'm so mad at myself for not getting his name or contact info, orz.

Maybe Wardens of the Reborn Forge? That one is set in Alkenstar.

Worst case scenario, you could probably download all of the chronicle sheets for the sanctioned modules and adventure paths.

I'll be saving that one since it's got 'Survivor of the Wastes' which I'm sure he'll be interested in.

Hmmm. I was hoping someone who'd tried running gunslinger was around to see it, but yeah, my next step was going to be eyeballing all of the modules and APs before doing the scenarios season by season. @_@

I earned my first GM star today. I'm a, little excited.

congrats Cari!!

Grats Cari!

Congratulations Cari! :D

Something as powerful as an advanced firearm is very unlikely to be on a scenario chronicle sheet. If it does indeed exist, I can only imagine finding it on a module or AP sheet at level 8+.

@hiyami
I am unsure about revealing chronicle sheet info' here, but, if I had a gunslinger fiancé who might be interested in a timeworn sonic pistol which costs 6,500 gp and comes from the Technology Guide (page 27) I would head over to Sulfur Gulch and ask their Warden about it (coordinates: Season 8 - Scenario 04). I'd wait to be level 7 but not after 11.

Thank you so much! I'll go take a look. c:

Congrats Cari! I would've come to that game today, but I've already played that one. I'll come sit at your table one of these days!

Congrats, Cari!

Sweet Cari. Glad I will be getting a one star GMing for Spackle. Congratz.

Congratz Cari

Congrats on your first of many stars!

Congrats! :)

Is anyone else's Sessions page blank? I can see the Sessions of any individual character, but not for my main alias.

-Posted with Wayfinder

I've been having that, too. I think they migrated the complete listing to the 'My Pathfinder' page linked at the top near your name and My Account link. It actually has quite a bit more versatility as you can search by character, scenario, faction, GM and other options.

Ah I see it. Thanks!

Talking of GM stars, I officially have 8 tables of credit, but should have more. I'm not sure how this worked, but at the last game store I regularly went to (it closed down about a year ago) the store coordinator reported every session that took place there. However, they forgot a lot of games, including all but one of mine. I don't actually think I ever met them, nor do I believe they have the sign-in sheets anymore. Am I allowed to report the four or five tables I GM'd there? I wouldn't be able to do so for the people who were playing, unfortunately.

How are the games organized? For example, is there a discussion forum where you could make a post about the missed reporting? If not, I think the official protocol is to speak with the area's VL.

I asked customer svc before they closed for gencon about the session s glitch. They said data was safe, just a display problem. It will be fixed after gencon.

I am missing a few tables too! Yes, Dean Ludwig is aware of the glitch. I had dinner with him at GenCon. He's got a to-do list a mile long, but he's doing great so far.

Did anyone else notice that the site stayed up when the Starfinder CRB went live as a PDF? I sure did. We're not getting rolling Paizo blackouts anymore!

So... GenCon is done, but I don't fly out until 4pm. Hope all of you are well!

Congratulations, CariMac!

I had a great time at GenCon!

Good games, good food, good weather!

The only downside was the air conditioning in The Sagamore ballroom, which was apparently set by a yeti. Any colder and I would have needed a space heater. Were they trying to recreate the cold of space for Starfinder?

I always bring several extra layers for that room.

I kept a small fire going and hourly pushed back the snow drifts. I lost two toes to frostbite and several good sled dogs.

I had forgotten that the Sagamore ballroom is north of the Wall, so I was not at all dressed warmly enough for my time in there. Will definitely have to keep that in mind for next year.

Travel safely! c: I hope it was a lot of fun and am eager for any good stories c:

"It was nice an' comfy, just like back home up in the Linnorm Kings lands! Dunno why people were having such a hard time with it!"

Great job Cari!

It's better than the alternative. I've been there in past years where people were too hot. You really don't want to smell what it was like when that many people start sweating in an enclosed area.

My sleep deprived mind has been officially addled, and my google-fu is nonexistent today. Does anyone have a link to the "New Player Boon"? I am running a table tonight of three brand new players and would like to expose them to some of the rewards for society play.. but I can't find the link or the download. Help please???

Edit: Never mind.. New GM Kit link above has it!! Once again, you save my backside and my mind, GM HMM!

Greetings! I'm new to both PFS and PBP, but looking to get involved. While I'm busy reading all the rules and guidelines and tip threads, I have one main outstanding question: am I supposed to create and register a character first, and then go look for a game to join, or find a game and then create a character for it? Or is there some other first step before either option?

Welcome to the community!

It helps to have a character available for your first game, but even if that is not ready, you are more than welcomed to use a pre generated PFS character.

It matters not which you do first, as long as by the time the game is over, you have registered a character for yourself.

Once you're comfortable with gameplay rules. My advice is to go ahead and find a game which has a relatively experience GM comfortable with a newcomer, they will very helpful in getting you on the right track.

Here is a link to a list of upcoming games with spots reserved for new players. Kuey is one of my favorite GMs, and he has an open slot in Phantom Phenomena, which is a scenario specifically designed for new characters.

*blush*

Elinnea, welcome! Yes there's still a slot and it starts approximately 6 Oct. Unfortunately gameday has just started so until then (slot 2 of gameday) there might not be that many new games coming up.

And there is no shortage of good GMs here! There two preceding ones included . :)

Thank you all for the welcome and the advice! That seems like a great place to start so I'll go ahead and snatch the slot. :D

Play-by-Post Gameday has started! Yay!

I hear some GMs are trying to get a headstart on Welcome to Pathfinder and Starfinder chronicle sheets, and are trying to figure out what event code to use. Both Welcome Boons may be found in the GM Kit linked in my header. It's also found in the links at the top of the Flaxseed campaign!

The Event Code is listed on the First Post of the PBP Gameday 6 Announcement Thread.

EVENT #152,539

Friday, August 25th, 2017 - Thursday, November 17th

I will try to get an email out to all GMs with the reporting link as soon as I have one!

Thanks so much!

Hmm

Recruiting a party to lead the assault on the worldwound.

According to Tonya, you can now apply Welcome to Pathfinder boons at any point in the career of your -1 Society character. That's right, my eleventh level sorceress may now apply this boon. This is a change from previously stated policies, so I wanted everyone to be aware of this posting.

Thanks,
Hmm

Edit: This was the 5000th post of my GM Hmm avatar. Wooo!

Oh geez. Well, thanks, I guess?

If only I hadn't deleted my -1 character before I understood the retraining rules.

Oh geez. Well, thanks, I guess?

You can join me in getting an excellent tattoo, Auris! Think of it as a fashion statement!

Well, I do need to be fashionable for the halfling ladies...

If only I hadn't deleted my -1 character before I understood the retraining rules.

This is something on the to-do list for Paizo... Figuring out how to recover those deleted -1 characters. I don't know when it will happen, but I am pretty sure it will.

Hmm

Can anyone assign those? Because I'm pretty sure the GM I had for my very first game for my -1 doesn't run games on the forums these days :P

Any GM can assign those. You could ask your current GM if they could assign it for you.

Hmm
