One day, you will be able to play from Level 1 to retirement thanks to the Blakros family.Yeah... Can't wait for that day. ;)
I see no downside to this. :-D
Laugh! My L7 paladin (provided he doesn't die and gets the XP) should make L8 on this scenario. He HATES the Blakros family and part of his RP is digging up dirt while on missions relating to them. He's played most of the Blakros scenarios...I think he outleveled one or two only. Can't wait to play this one on August 30th. I suppose we have to find the stolen R2D2...

Interesting Chronicle. Thanks to this one, my Cleric no longer needs to worry about Darkness effects. Ever.
Campaign Setting: Technology Guide 56; when used
as an additional material component, a dose of
djezet increases the effective spell level by 1, which
stacks with a heightened spell. To function as an
additional component, the spellcaster must use a
number of doses equal to the spell’s original level—
additional doses have no effect)
Continual Flame is a 3rd level spell, so with 3 doses (leaving you 3 to do it again if a DM thinks they can Dispel it) becomes a 4th effective level spell and neither Darkness (2nd) nor Deeper Darkness (3rd) can touch it. :) Cost = 600 + 50 to cast self.

Honestly, my group really didnt dig that part of it at all. A bit suprizing as I figured they would have, or at least not been as against it as they turned out to be, but a combination of the sci-fi and it not feeling like a Blakros Museum Scenario where the two biggest complaints when I ran it.
Its one I would run again, though. I would suggest in the future adding in some more enemy diversity, as I can see a lot of classes being a little peeved at the encounters. One other thing that might have helped a bit on the DMs side, not having any of the books that this one draws so much from, (Numeria, Tech Guide), the motivations and goals of the Tech League that raided the museum seems really unclear and possibly superficial. It might have been a good idea to explain some more about them for the DMs who dont know. If I run it again, Ill study up on them, but I wasnt sure if they where suppossed to be assassins just using the "its our stuff" as an excuss, where somehow the innocent victims, or what the actual deal was.

Played through this one at GenCon.
Happily used the line [Indiana Jones] "These artifacts belong in a museum!" [/Indiana Jones]

There seems to be something wrong with the maps in this pdf. With most other scenarios you can copy-paste the maps (which leaves the room labels behind) and print the maps out or use them for online games. The maps in this scenario just copy-paste as a black box; I suspect something isn't layered right as I don't know what else would cause that.
Which of course means that for anyone wanting to print the maps or use them for an online game is stuck with the room labels (and secret door labels!) on their map for the players to see in plain view.

I'm not a PFS player but I might start buying these Season 6 scenarios just for the sake of having more sci-fantasy stuff in my library =D VIVA LA MAGITEK!

Had the same problem, coincidentally after installing a beta copy of an OS, embarrassingly I opened a defect ticket before I realized it was this PDF (and just the maps in this PDF) and not the OS.
When the intro mentioned that Nigel had remodeled the place, I was intrigued. When I saw that the map had nothing to do with the previous maps of the museum, I was baffled.
