Max table size for Godsmouth Heresy

[Cryptichorror]

I'm running Godsmouth Heresy starting this week, and I need to know how many players to allow. The front page of the module says 4 players, but I also know that this wasn't necessarily written with PFS in mind. Can I get away with 5 players, or would that break the game?

The module, like all PFS scenarios, is written for a hypothetical party of four PCs. But it can be played for PFS credit with up to six PCs.

Another thing to remember about this module is that it was written assuming that the characters will level up partway through. In Society play, this doesn't happen, which can make things more difficult for squishy first level characters toward the end of the adventure.

That being said, I played in this one with a group of four very unoptimized characters and we managed to survive - although it was pretty close a few times!

Regarding Godsmouth specifically - it's pretty gentle compared to other modules (though still quite enjoyable), so having 5 or 6 players might result in a bit of a cake-walk, depending on how familiar they are with Pathfinder.
