I got my email a couple of days ago. Today I got my box! Finished playing the WotR scenario we were in the middle of so we could unbox and play. A few minor confusions later and we'd finished the first scenario from the Core box.

Very, very sweet.

OMG this is so boss! I'm totally doing this!

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!

Right On! I love the smell of a good challenge in the morning.

This is awesome!!! Nice work and thanks for the idea! Might have to try this (though I am not crafty at all lol)

I didn't think I was either - haha!

Ingredients:
cardboard
duct tape
foam board
fake moss
wood chips
Shelving paper
crazy stuff from around the house

A most excellent and thematic lazy Susan!

Has Cthulhu succeeded in scaring the cat away from the cards? Or is he (it?) a subtle effort to get Strange Aeons turned into a PACG set? ;)

Unfortunately, nothing scares our calico Kiki. If she knocks it off the board it counted as an act of God. The two black cats, ironically, couldn't care less Cthulhu is doing battle in an old rotating temple -haha.

And yes, I would love any and all H. P. Lovecraft inspired PACG decks/adventure paths!

Pathfinder Adventures Sagas

The idea behind Sagas is to create a meta-game reward not related to any Adventure Path. This is inspired by the old CCG Mythos. Complete the story by encountering or defeating the cards underlined. Check them off as you encounter them. Once you have completed the Saga you will be rewarded with a special item/power/etc. Below are examples of Sagas I’ve created from my own collection. Some guidelines to keep in mind when creating your own:
• All cards need to be available to be encountered in the Adventure Path’s box.
• All cards need to be the same level as the Saga.
• There should be 3 locations to keep it more likely to span multiple scenarios.
• The rewards should be pretty awesome. Not ‘completed an Adventure” big, but big enough to make it worth looking for the Saga’s required cards across multiple scenarios’ play. Basic weapon – no. Loot, cohort, mythic path – yes please.

Examples of how the cards I made look are on boardgamegeek:

I would love for the community to come up with new Sagas to share. We could use Sagas based on the stock Adventure Paths so they are available to everyone that has that AP. Some related to the supplement decks would be cool - I'm dying to make one for the Ultimate Combat deck!

---------------------
Base level Sagas

Mjorning Star :
Following my Treasure Map☐, I followed the trail from the Cemetery☐, where I had to fight a Plague Zombie☐. I rode down the Abyssal River☐ to the Befouled Altar☐. After a long search I found the fabled Warhammer +1☐ they call Mjorning Star!
Reward :
Choose a boon from your deck and treat it as a cohort from now until the card is banished.

Adventurer’s Backpack :
Collect the following set:
"Adventurer's Backpack"
☐ Flaming Mace +1
☐ Magic Shield
☐ Chainmail
☐ Potion of Healing
☐ Masterwork Tools
☐ Detect Evil
Reward :
Select any non-basic Boon from the box and add it to your deck.

The Old Man :
I was on Shark Island☐ when I was caught in a storm. I fought my way through a Merfolk☐ den and eventually found an old house in the Sea Caves☐. An old man greeted me, and after a time he showed me a the Amulet of Life☐. I explained to him the Blessing of Iomedae☐ I had been given. He got angry and summoned a Ghost☐ before disappearing into the night!
Reward:
Random weapon with the Magic and Elite attributes

The Shadow of Golarion :
I was broke in Sandpoint Cathedral☐ and headed to a small town on the coast near the Warrens☐ after receiving a letter from old Acolyte☐. Once there I found a Rat Swarm in the fog at night and the cult of Dagon casting a Firey Glare☐ spell. I ran, though, when the Cecaelia☐ came out of the sea in response to the cult.
Reward :
Select any spell with the Elite attribute and add it to your deck.

The Hunt :
I was in a tavern near Merchant Marina☐ where I heard about the item from an old farmer. The old man left me to deal with a Skeleton Horde☐ but I found the location of my hunt. I found a Dragon Pistol☐ in the darkness to defeat the Derakni☐. The old grimoire contained a translation of the Life Drain☐ spell and the final resting place of the ancient Horn of Battle Clarity☐.
Reward :
Choose a boon from your deck and treat it as a cohort from now until the card is banished.

The middle was the hard part for me, really. I knew I wanted to have a dice tower at the top of something but I didn't have an idea of what that would be. I didn't want it to be a big round cylinder but it needed support to hold a second level. I used the columns for supporting the top. I put a little foamboard in the middle but that was more to support the ring around the inside of the middle. It turned out to be a good thing because I had a lot of room to decorate :) So, just plan it out first and then dive in. You're plan will disappear as to dive, but you'll end up with something much cooler.

I added a thread on BGG showing my custom 'board' I use to play PACG. It's got two levels, which spin independently, and a dice-rolling tower on the top :)

BTW, love you all at Paizo! working on a couple of homebrew rules as well (one being Pathfinder Sagas - stories characters try to complete over the course of several scenarios.)
