Outpost IV runs from February 16 to April 27. If people wish to continue playing after the convention is over, I am willing to continue running this table.
Please read below for some information on how I run my tables. By getting everyone on the same page, we can make the game run a lot more smoothly :)
1. Try to post at least once every few days in order to keep things moving. If you are going to be unavailable for an extended period of time, please ensure that your deck handler is linked and available for other players, and provide instructions so that other players can bot your turn. I recommend putting the link in your alias Profile, in the Class line. Wrap it in the url tags so it turns into a link -- see "How to format your text" below the reply box for details on how to do that if you aren't sure
2. Do not wait around for my scenario update posts, just base your turn around the most recent update plus what other players have done since then. I will post scenario updates upon request or if it's been a week or so without an update. To request an update, ping me on Discord.
3. There are no take-backs or retcons, with exception of invalid plays/turns. Use resources wisely, and keep in mind the other perks you get in Organized Play such as accessory re-rolls and hero points.
1. If a location is shuffled, you can continue to examine or explore cards in it by rolling a die to see which card you examine/explore. No need to wait on me to post an update first with the shuffled deck.
2. When encountering a card, be very explicit in what card you are encountering. This helps other players at the same location know where you left off so they don't accidentally encounter the same cards that you just got through and have to re-do their turn.
3. Use your Notes section to describe any cards or powers that can be used to assist other players on their turns and that you are willing to use. If you post that certain cards are available for use, have the card text available somewhere for other players to reference.
4. When something impacts another player (a power that affects all characters at your location, or you're playing one of their cards), bold that thing so that it stands out.
1. Write a list of your 2-5 most desired deck upgrades, in order, and roll 1d1000 for each of them. If you have any conditions on the upgrade, such as "I'll take this only if nobody else wants it or if my planned card X is better than anyone else's planned card" make a note of those as well.
2. That will let us look through those lists and see how we can get everyone their #1 preferred upgrade without lots of times lost in back-and-forth. If people are fighting over an upgrade, the d1000 roll is used to determine who gets it (highest roll wins).
3. You are free to disregard this and discuss upgrades normally; but try to keep discussions to a week at most so that we can move on to the next scenario.

Hi all. Looking forward to the campaign!
I played one random scenario in advance, just so I didn't have to start with a 4 hand size - especially since Magus Arcana counts towards my hand. So I'm coming in at Tier 1.1.
Was hoping to use the Dragon's Demand reward to swap in the Core Chain Mail, if no one else is interested.
No objections. I'm eying Balmberry myself.
Maznar's main gimmick is he can reveal an animal ally to add 1d4 to any local check. So sticking together is a good idea.
No objections from me either.
Sounds good to me! I do have 1 balmberry in my deck, fyi.
Tier 1 upgrades Maznar is looking for.
Spell 1 Holy Light.
Item 1 Sacred Candle
Low priority
Spell 1 Sonic Blast
Oh and weapon 1 for Glorious Warhammer. I may as well have a magic weapon at some point.
A few notes about Zvarbel (337921-1018):
Using the "Stick with Me" Boon from Gameday VIII: [][][] On your check during recovery, check a box that precedes this reward to add 1d6.
Also applying the Tapestry's Tides reward: Each player chooses 1 of her Pathfinder Society Adventure Card Guild characters. When that character draws her starting hand, she may draw an extra card, then recharge a card.

| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Power Feat: (☐or bottom)
Question: Is this "OR" the same as Quinns "OR" which allows him to actually examine at the beginning and end of his turn, or is the english "OR" meaning I have to choose which to examine?

Power Feat: (☐or bottom)
Question: Is this "OR" the same as Quinns "OR" which allows him to actually examine at the beginning and end of his turn, or is the english "OR" meaning I have to choose which to examine?
I'll answer using your Aggressor role power, because it illustrates better: "At the (☐ start or) end of your turn, you may examine the top (☐or bottom) card of your location deck."
1. "At the start or end of your turn" means that it happens both at the start and at the end. Because at the start of turn you go to apply start of turn powers and see that the start of your turn is indeed the "start or end of your turn." Then later when you go to apply end of turn powers you again see that the end of your turn qualifies as the "start or end of your turn". -- So, that power feat (indicating an extra timing option) means the "or" includes both.
2. "top or bottom" on the other hand implies a choice. If you check the power feat, you can examine the top card or the bottom card, but not both, each time the power activates.
In both cases, the usual English meaning(s) of "or" applies, the difference lies in how the phrases are being interpreted. In case 1, you're checking the current step of the turn against a condition that lists multiple things. In case 2, that isn't happening and you're just told to make a choice.
