Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play


Pathfinder Society


...is, unfortunately, going to be delayed by a week. I hope to be able to reveal a sample scenario chronicle this Friday (and possibly more.) We're also combining the Player's Guide and GM's Guide into one document titled Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play. Our drop dead to release the PDF is 8/8.

Give us what you have now and we'll "open playtest" it. I can help edit for typos, too.

Crap only five days before the Con.
Hope everyone has their speedreaders on.

Five days? I thought Gencon doesn't start until the 14th?

Officially it doesn't. Unofficially, the preperatory drinking and sleep deprivation starts on the 13th. Nothing actually gets done that day so you do really only get 5 prep days. :D

I echo this. I would much rather help out with troubleshooting and get started building a character now, knowing there will be probably a minor errata than try to absorb the whole thing less than a week before I play at Gen Con.

I should add, I respectfully echo this. If I have to wait, I have to wait. :)

Arrghh!

So much for slot 0s. Guess I'll just have to eat the 2 mods I'm running and hope for the best. Ah, well. Won't be the first time. :)

Speaking of which- since the Guide is delayed, does this mean that the scenarios the DMs are running for GenCon will be delayed in getting to us as well?

I'm shooting for getting the scenarios out in waves and having all of them out before 8/8. I don't have additional specifics, but 8/8 is the drop dead.

I guess I won't need to worry about what I'm going to be reading on the plane to Indy.

This is later than I'd like, but your drop-dead date is good for me to hear. On the 9th I'm leaving town for a family reunion, and I'll be flying right from there to GenCon. So please don't push this into next Monday, or I'll have to get the scenarios on-site and prep them when I'd prefer to be gaming!

I'm sorry if this question has already been answered but at the gencon pathfinder games will characters be provided or do you need to come with your own created character? If you need to create your own character can someone steer me to guidelines or when said guidelines will be released?

You need to create your own, guidelines should be released on The Pathfinder Society page by the end of the week
