Yay, I can't wait! So, is Guidance going to be the Starfinder Society version of Futurama's talking heads?

No. You'd be amazed how many times I've had to address questions about talking heads / heads in jars. :PYay, I can't wait! So, is Guidance going to be the Starfinder Society version of Futurama's talking heads?
:)
And it won't stop until you give the people what they want! :)
Anyone in eastern Quebec intending to play Starfinder Society? Is there another thread for this already?
Using maps from Pathfinder... Sneaky, Paizo...

When you say eastern Quebec, do you mean Eastern townships or farther east than the Eastern township, like the Chaudière-Appalaches, Bas-Saint-Laurent, Gaspésie?
I'm from Montreal and plan to Gm in Montreal.
I pulled the flip-mat I own and am so happy it's the own for that scenario.

I have never before played nor GMed a Society Roleplaying Guild Scenario, but man would i like to.
I have both the Pathfinder Flip-Mat Classics: River Crossing and the Pathfinder Map Pack: Starship Chambers (which is very beautiful to look at), now i only need someone to provide the the actual scenario. ;-)

Not to worry. This adventure will be available for purchase and download on August 17th.

I just realized that Guidance is almost exactly like the bitek personas in Edenist habitats from Peter F. Hamilton's Confederation books. When Edenists die, they upload their personalities into the neural strata of a living habitat, joining their personalities with the others in the habitat and making their knowledge and experience available to current and future generations. Very cool!
If I was to get the Core Rulebook pawns, would that aid me much in running this scenario?

I approve of this if only because one day a Starfinder map is going to make it's way into a PFS scenario and it's going to be the cantina map and my barbarian is gonna wreck that cantina. Oh you have fancy space lasers and you have the death sentence on twelve systems? A space laser is a machine and a machine is just fancy city people talk for magic and my Kellid barbarian hates magic. Battle ax in yo' face, sucka!

And you might ask "What if he's wearing fancy space armor?" All that means is I'll have to hit the guy more than once.

So, the author of this adventure, Eleanor Ferron, is also an artist of no small skill, and she's done a bunch of portraits for the characters in the adventure. Entirely unofficial, but something that others might find useful:
I looked at the resource section and I couldn't find out what races are SFS legal. Granted I don't have the core book yet.
Are Goblins legal?
Some good art in this. :)
They are not (yet), the legal races are detailed in the SFS Guide.
Thanks.
Why can't I find that! :(

If you mean the Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide, I went ahead and linked it for you. It was linked in yesterday's blog. In general, it's a little tough to find the Starfinder Society stuff, right now.
Yes! Thank you sir! :)

Those were awesome and have convinced me that I need the scenario.

Yes. This is indisputable.

** spoiler omitted **Do I need the society adventure path books as a player for society play?Or are these geared for GM use?
If you are talking about the Starfinder Adventure Path, the first issue of which is entitled "Incident at Absalom Station." You don't need to purchase that as a player, but it has some good information about life on Absalom Station.
If you're talking about these scenarios, you should not purchase them unless you plan to run them as a GM or you have already played them and just want to read them, yourself. They are absolutely not necessary for a player to own.

Those are fantastic! I really want to see some of those characters appear again in a future scenario.
I want to have music playing when the PCs receive their mission from Zigvigix to simulate
Any suggestions for what song would be good to play? I'm thinking something with heavy synth, super major key, high energy...

I've done a lot of googling over this.
In fact, someone on Reddit made up a face CD case for it:
Made a prop for SFS-101. Star Sugar Heartlove!!!.
A lot of folks are going with something from BabyMetal, but that doesn't fit the loose description of "sugar pop" I have in my head.
I've decided to go with 4Minute, because there are several of their songs on youtube that have a more happy sound. I put together my own playlist of songs that I felt were most appropriate. You're welcome to use it if you like.
Paris's Strawberry Machine Cake playlist.
Paris,
This is AMAZING! Thank you bunches. I really, really, really love the CD case!
FWIW, I went with a Swedish band called The Sound of Arrows, which is a little less anime-ish, but a little more in line with my group's musical tastes while still hitting that saccharine note.

Glad to help. I'll have to check out that band.
If you're interested in putting a little bit of extra lore into the setting, here's something that recently came out of complaints I made to my friends about a voice-to-text mistake. My phone converted my daughter's name "Tatiana" to "That's Yana." My friend suggested that the phrase "That's Yana!" should now mean "Awesome!", "Sweet!", and "Totally Tubular!" I decided I'll be using that in my games. So....
Yana! is the title of the third single released by Strawberry Machine Cake from their album Triaxian Summer Camp Friends. The titular Yana is a fabulously chic girl who has it all. The group’s millions of mega-fans quickly adopted the name as an expression of everything good and fashionable. Teens everywhere are still saying, "That's Yana!" when they encounter something they like.

They did put out a new version, but they don't seem to have made the single change mentioned in the e-mail.
I've noted the same thing. I forwarded the email to customer service and asked them to verify the updated asset has been released. I'll reply here once I hear back.
