So just going through it and noticed a hiccup with the map, specifically on A16. The room's description mentions some of the cages being marked to indicate their current occupants, but all of the cages on the map are blank.

EDIT: Should point out this is the PDF and I'm looking at both the map in the adventure PDF and the version in the maps PDF. Both have the cages unmarked.

Has anyone figured out what is going on with this issue? The hard copy book's map is also unmarked.

I would buy all things Carrion Crown.

Woot! My favorite podcast is now covering my two favorite APs!

Good luck in this new undertaking! I cannot wait to give it a listen!

I realize that the second I post this that it will turn out to be a giant button right in the middle of the page, but I can't find the AP in Ron Lundeen's blog. Any advice on where I can find it?

I want another horror AP. I would prefer gothic/classic horror, but would still be pleased with cosmic horror.

Thank you!

I wish Pathbuilder2e worked with iOS. At least two of the people I might be teaching only use Apple products.

Will there be hippogriffs?

Amiri is a great starter character because she is so straight forward.

I hope to hear about Lem next!

My daughter and I had a successful run through S&S with Oloch and Jirelle. I ran Oloch as a purely support character who could on occasion smash a monster. Jirelle took care of everything else (which is what my daughter wanted). There was no overlap/competition for cards. It should not be hard to build more balanced decks for more equally dynamic game play if playing pure support is not someone's cup of tea.

Trial of the Beast:
Grine is a Dark Creeper worshiper of Norgorber (though I think he may have cleric levels also). I cannot recall whether or not Vorkstag also worships Norgorber.

These might be helpful because they are from an early AP module.

We are about to start a campaign using the hardcover module. One of my players' rough draft is a monk that is a member of the Korvosan Guard. I feel like I remember reading that these types of affiliations are discouraged, but I cannot for the life of me find that reference anywhere. Is my memory correct or flawed?

Even if the text does not mention it, should I discourage the bond anyways, since the characters all are going to be working so closely with the Guard before the end of Edge of Anarchy?

Thank you for all of the responses. My daughter and I are currently playing through Skull & Shackles a second time, this time with two characters apiece. I certainly agree with the comment above that playing through a second time with different characters can be very fulfilling, and I'd like to add that playing through with different numbers of characters can result in new challenges as well.

I will definitely be looking into the "Season of ___" downloads and the free content I was previously oblivious to.

We played Amiri and Lem on our first run through of RotRL. Those two are still our favorite characters, and the two of us (currently) have the goal of trying to play through each set with that tandem. I think, based on your feedback, that we will be purchasing Mummy's Mask and the barbarian and bard decks in a few months.

I would like to possibly include the new Research rules in a future Carrion Crown campaign. But, I am absolutely stymied on how to apply the new rules to the multiple DC research topics at the beginning of Haunting of Harrowstone.

Has anyone considered how to do this? If so, I'd appreciate any feedback on ideas.

It might just be me, but I would love a list of suggested languages. I hate investing skill points into learning Polyglot and then never once encountering someone who speaks the language.

But, I also understand if that is considered too specific a set of information.

A ship is a rigid hierarchy of individuals with defined roles and rank. This would be true for pirates also. To my mind, that is very compatible with Lawful.

I expect to see Char Gar Gothakon, the beast with no name!

"Raven Grow" here as well.

We pronounce the second city as "Lehpidshtahdt."

This is disappointing news. I was always looking forward to both the new piece of art and the glimpse of Golarion the weekly fiction were providing.

Can a currently Intimidated NPC use Intimidate against the PC while still Shaken? I cannot see anything in the rules that prevents it, though there will obviously be a -2 penalty to the skill check.

Is it against "the code" to not squib? I mean, I know "the code is more what you'd call 'guidelines' than actual rules," but is it going to be frowned on by peers if you do not squib?

Examples for clarification:
I understand the need to squib the Man's Promise, as the group should probably want to keep their mutiny a secret from Harrigan. I also understand the need to squib a captured ship if it was part of a pirate fleet, so as to help the party avoid suspicion and/or to help the victimized free captain save face. However, what if you capture a ship never associated with the Shackles? I mean, if you capture a prize like the Truewind, Dowager Queen, or Dominator, would not squibbing be a great way of showing how daring the party is by thumbing its nose at a world power?

Or would such showmanship be looked down upon by the other captains?
