So it seems that Ninja Division has to approve transfer of pledges. Then people can just sell their pledge to an interested party and the sprues can be sent directly to their new owners (saving time and postage).

I assume Archon is getting a generous licensing agreement from Paizo for cleaning up Ninja Division's mess.
I'm over the initial shock of getting unassembled and like sanwah68 seeing some positives. The scenic bases are nice and unassembled will allow for miniatures tailored for my characters. Also, the plastic sprues remind me of Gorka Morka, so I'm hoping Archon will do some properly scaled Terrestrial vehicles soon! :-)

GM Dennis wrote: As for getting you the scenario...I'm afraid I don't have any update. I know Hmm is working on it, so hopefully the answer is 'soon'. As an RVC I can see the Con Support Backlog has almost caught up and that Play-by-Post Gameday VIII is on the top of the list (together with 5 other conventions) and will likely receive their support today.

It might have to do with taxes, tariffs and additional handling fees. If the product gets sent from the EU directly from Archon to the customer every customer might have to pay extra for taxes, tariffs and handling over the consumer price. By having (semi-finished) product shipped to a company inside the US, the taxes and tariffs are over the manufacturer price and there is only a single customs handling fee.

If you want to save bombs to go nova vs the big bad, you can just use regular alchemical stuff like acid instead, which isn't even that expensive as you craft those for 1/3 of the cost.
Specialty Stowaway (Sp or Su) wrote: A school familiar can use any granted abilities of its master’s arcane school that have a limited number of uses or rounds per day, expending twice the number of uses or rounds as usual. Dimensional Steps (Sp) wrote: At 8th level, you can use this ability to teleport up to 30 feet per wizard level per day as a standard action. This teleportation must be used in 5-foot increments and such movement does not provoke an attack of opportunity. You can bring other willing creatures with you, but you must expend an equal amount of distance for each additional creature brought with you. Is the Dimensional Steps ability a legal option for Specialty Stowaway? It is a limited number of uses per day but measured in 5-foot increments instead of literal 'uses per day', but it clearly uses a pool which could be drained twice as fast by the familiar.
The best way to solve these problems is to contact the organizer of the event in question. They should be able to remove the session that was entered twice. If the organizer isn't available anymore, contact the relevant VC. IMHO they should just get rid of the “report a problem” button, as the only thing that happens AFAIK is that support forwards the problem to the VC, who sends it to the organizer.
Unless the map is so different that encounters would have totally different tactics I personally think it's better to have a nice printed flip mat than a quickly sketched one, but informing the party you are doing so seems like a proper thing to do. I myself have used (amongst others):
Eristae wrote: I know that the Second Edition of Pathfinders is coming out fairly soon, and I was wondering if anyone had any clue when the first edition might be phased out in favor of the second edition in Pathfinder Society. When I play Pathfinder, I play in Society, and if there is an ETA, I want to be getting ready. I've tried looking for information on this, and I can't find anything so far. After GenCon (August) no new scenarios will be published for 1st edition, but you can still play all the old content and those sessions will even count for any support that is requested. It might be that some modules/APs that haven't been PFS sanctioned will receive sanctioning after GenCon, but I think the OP team is trying to get the ones currently queued ready before that time.

Yeah, but the different parts of Cosmic Captive weren't tier based, so it's very hard to create tables so that no one plays the same content. very hard != impossible

Well, AFAIK due to negative feedback on some of the early ideas John voiced during the podcast they rethought the "grinder" aspect and it's now more of a "finale". up to 16 is confirmed. (Also it will be run from PaizoCon to GenCon with OPC approval and after GenCon it will require RVC approval instead.)

If their money is all that is vauled here, then I'll take the message. This thread is about running this Module as part of PFS, so your advice might be well intended, but it's targeted at the wrong audience. Community / Forums / Organized Play / GM Discussion My advice would be to go to Community / Forums / Pathfinder / Pathfinder Modules
You should be able to find the required chronicles in the Additional Resources.
Jhaeman wrote: Resurrecting an old thread to double-check. I'm in a similar position to the OP: started GMing Rise of the Runelords as a home game back in 2016, and we're into Book 6 now. Neither myself nor any of the players did PFS at the beginning, but now most of us are into it. Is it legit to retroactively hand out Chronicles for the parts that a player went through? Yes
Yeah, Pathfinder Society is a living campaign which has been running for more than 10 years now, so there's a lot of information, some of which is now conflicting due to the very nature of the campaign. There's an excellent fan made guide that hopefully helps to clear things up!
Bob Jonquet wrote: Is that really acceptable? Someone spend real money to support a charity and we cannot manage to send them a single printed piece of paper for six months or more? It really is an insult to the recipient. As the boons need to be printed, signed, embossed, and mailed doing them in batches makes sense. However, having them send every quarter would be much better than once or twice a year IMHO.
Gary Bush wrote:
Looking at the number of people that received their boon in the last batch and the time they had to wait, I think it's about once every 6 months, so I expect the next batch to be handled after GenCon.

My guess is that most people have easily passed the thresholds so one more or less doesn't really matter.
Officially I don't think the three into scenarios have a number, probably because they are a free product. There is no other scenario that officially claims #3-00 (although both the Grand Convocation or Blood under Absalom might be contenders too.) Is there a specific reason for the question? (My guess is that seasonal explorer boon has something to do with it.)
Actually, VOs are volunteers for the Organized Play Foundation, a non-profit that was created to help bring together gamers.

With the number of players worldwide fixing all reporting errors would be a full time job with little added real value. I feel your pain and I’ve tried to look into your problem, but the online tools available to me can’t handle the amount of sessions GenCon has it seems. Just remember, your paper records are the real records and the misreported session still gives you the proper GM credits .
