Is it okay to have two of my PCs talking to each other in the Gameplay Thread? No one seems to be using it at the moment and maybe others will join in.
And since there is only one year left for SFS1 I'm seriously considering starting to use replay points in order to make tables fly.
Once I get back from work travel in May, I'm planning on making a BIG push to play through as much SF1 as possible, so I'm all in on making tables fire!
He looks much better, though the spell doesn't heal the psychological damage. "Thank you. My name is is Lasda. Lasda Venkervale. I had given up hope. It's a miracle that you came."

Looking to sneak in a table before OutPost starts. If anyone has interest in 06-09 Ridgerock Rescue, I'll run. As soon as the table is legal I'll start. Sign up HERE

After nearly a year of my job crushing me, I'm within a week of wrapping up 2 APs and the special. It's been a while since I've done pick up Starfinder, and I'd like to focus here for the moment. I'm looking to recruit, but first, I need to know what people want.
If there's something people want, add it to the Wishlist. If you concur with someone else's request, just add your name to "I second that!" in column T.

Joel Hagar and I write a VO handbook with sections on Game Master Support including recruiting and retention.
Also has a massive section on dealing with problems.
Here to make another plug for Doug Hahn and Joel Hager's work. I have so many bookmark's to Doug's work and there's no reason to reinvent the wheel. I encourage people to reap the benefits of their work!
I'm going to have to back off. I'm not bringing my A-game right now given how often I work and I'm in too many. I really appreciate this though, and when freer, I'd gladly join in.

Just about to start now. I'm wondering how often to inject these, or to simply turn it over to the group. I haven't finished reading the whole AP, so I'm not sure if the adventures have things like "now's a good time for some Trade Downtime" or not.

Woo.
I see we're already set with 10 metaplot scenarios, but it feels a little much to me if we're getting under 20 total scenarios for the season.
One of the strengths of orgwnized play is its episodic nature and this high % of meta plot feels like its erroding away at that a bit.
That said, I love connections and the occasional 2 parter and all meta all the time isn't a deal breaker, Im just whatever the opposite of excited is.
Voicing support for this. The episodic nature is the prime attractor as an alternative for AP play. I struggle to get new players invested when I have to explain half an AP's worth of plot to get them to play a 4 hour session.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate and acknowledge the work that goes into this, but it's a detractor to OP.
Sorry, I'm slow to the discussion. (This is one of the busiest times of the year for me (assistant principal) and today was graduation. I'm typically good for a handful of posts each day. Chief works for me. It'll be cool to play aside Twila, and not just GM!
Any word on where I can find some Play-by-Post APs?
In my experience, Play by Post APs are much more likely to make it when they are built from the ground up, which is to say the players and GM form organically through other play. Even three book APs can be a big commitment. If you're looking to go that route, I'd find some people you've played and have had good chemistry with to band together and try to get one off the ground. Now, overtly recruited ones DO exist, and I'd look here for those.
Could you please add the link to the Play by Post Lodges and Guides slide deck and the campaign information?
That way it would be much easier to find.
Done.
I agree that MORE forms is Kafka-esque, and I think more hoops may dissuade people from recruiting here. Maybe this is only temporary until there's an update to the reporting site itself? Just a drop down menu, yes?

I also plan on the trilogy of:Into the Veskarium [Tier 3-6], Starfinder Society Scenario #4-06: Combatant's Concerto: Prelude to Revolution, and finally 5-03: Combatant's Concerto: Fugue of the Traitor. Sign up on the same link. I'll start once the table is legal, and for parts 2 and 3 I'll give dibs to legacy players.

Yes, I apologize - 3-07, not 3-06.
I'll buy 1-13 and reserve seats for you (Warah), Palandri, NN959, and GM Tiger (I'll have open recruiting for the other two seats when I prep the scenario - maybe opening on Monday and closing later next week).
Thanks less than 24 hours passed and I missed two sign ups.
I've got the bandwidth to start something if there's enough demand for another table. What tier are you looking for?
Greetings and salutations Starfinders of Castamir's Flaxseed Station! In an effort to stay consistent across the Paizo.com lodges, I've updated the header for the campaign page to match the other lodges. It should take up less room now! This lodge is now more than 5 years old, and that's pretty awesome, so keep up the fire! Explore, Report, cooperate!

Thread necromancy:
Part 4: Siege for Tomorrow.
The stat block says "A sivv drone interceptor can perform only one crew action per round (in the gunner, pilot, and science officer roles) and takes critical damage effects as normal."
Does this mean I have to CHOOSE between taking a Pilot action and shooting? Is it that I can't have more than one "person" in a role?
Backing up, Greater scrying on PCs is a no go - it's just not cricket, even if it's in Raen's personality to do so. I count it like casting compulsion spells on fellow PCs.
Raen finds that texts fail, but if she's willing, powerful divinations may help. What's your chance v. CL 25?
Sorry about the COVID! I hope it's mild. I also hear that about end of semester. Student or teacher?
Helios takes the shot, but it goes wide, striking the chamber wall.
The more atavistic-looking alien turns into a flurry of motion. The radiation sensors on your armors light up, though the level is low. I didn't check everyone, but is there anyone wearing either no armor or archaic armor?
It steps past Damorisovitch to focus on the one who killed it's brethren, Shaan:
Claw:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21 for DMG:1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Wave 1, Round 1
Knowledge: Life Sciences
Vyecmuraf: Hit
Damorisovitch: Miss
Shaan: Kill
Purple-dash: ATK
Helios-4: Miss
Silver: ATK
Gletch: Go
Wave 1, Round 2
Knowledge: Life Sciences Vyecmuraf: Go
Damorisovitch: Go
Shaan: Go
Purple-dash: TBD
Helios-4: TBD
Silver: TBD
Gletch: TBD
It takes a long time, a long time, for Raen to find anything of note that she doesn't already know. It's not until she stumbles upon a book in the newly recovered library in Xin Shalast.
It starts with a name, Baelgoroth. The dragon whose soul inhabits the orb itself...
--------------
Scrying on Naximarra used to be easy. A few months after Raen's vigil started, she met with a red dragon easily a millenium old. The dragon appeared to be deaf, and communicated via sign language. Raen committed the exchange to memory, but was only able to parse out a single sentence, "It is time. We have found him." After that every attempt by Raen has been foiled with a non-detection spell....
Okay, what do you think about me running a game in Russian for the Russian community?
I think that's awesome! Unfortunately, games on Paizo.com must be in English (only because the moderators speak only English and otherwise wouldn't know if someone breaks a rule.)
I'm dreadfully sorry. I was positive I posted the gameplay thread. One player posted, so I'm not sure what happened. But at this point, it's no matter!
Would the following players check in for Year of Shattered Sanctuaries:
Pirate Rob (Rhizzuk)
PaleDim (Voron Keyphyra)
Palandri (Mimi de Valence) DONE
Abraham Z. (Evindal Mog)
MauveAvngr (TBD)
Quen Pah (Iusantus)
