Hi!
I'm really new to Game Mastering, and most of my players are also very new to Pathfinder, with one exception in our group.
The current guide that I've read through states:
"All Tier 1 scenarios and Tier 1–2 sanctioned modules are
available for unlimited replay with a 1st-level character for
credit. The sanctioned modules may also be played with a
2nd-level character once for credit in each mode. GMs may
receive another Chronicle sheet each time they run one of
the Tier 1 scenarios or Tier 1–2 sanctioned modules, but
may only apply a Chronicle sheet to one 2nd-level character
per adventure."
I want to make sure I completely understand this rule -- does this ONLY apply to scenarios that have NO other tiers as part of them?
Example: A lot of scenarios have multiple tiers available, and you select and run the level appropriate tier for your group, and that determines the rewards they get.
I'm asking because I ran Among the Living for the new group at tier 1-2, and it turns out our more experienced player had played it... 6 years ago, on a character he doesn't even use anymore, and couldn't even remember the game. So he couldn't get credit on his new character.
I have now showed him how to go back through his session history for each character he has registered and have pulled a list of scenarios that he's already run so I know to avoid those in the future.
I just want to be clear on my understanding though, so that I can answer questions for others in my group, and definitely make sure to avoid this happening again by accident if we have any other experienced players join us for a session or two at any point.
Thanks so much for taking the time to read through all this. I hope it's not too confusing.
