Shadow Lodge 3/5

A bunch of us are thinking about trying a Google Hangout PFS Scenario and don't have a lot of time, figure about 3-3.5 hours. What Scenarios would people recommend that are relatively short and straight forward? Mists of Mwangi comes to mind as an example.

Assault on the Kingdom of the Impossible takes about two hours to run, depending on roleplay and optional encounters. It's my go-to scenario at conventions if we've been doing beginner box stuff (or quests) and we get a group that wants to do a "real" PFS scenario.

Many Season 0 ones are on the shorter side.

Slave Pits of Absalom & Prince of Augustana have been the shortest ones I've ever played or run, personally.
Scarab Sages 4/5

The Goblinblood Dead is a short scenario. I've heard of tables of it being completed in under two hours at my local group. And we're not talking min-maxed characters, it's just really short.

We just ran this at my local store a couple of weeks ago. Oddly, one of the tables took over two hours just to get past the first fight, so that table ended up going long overall. I still have no idea what the heck they were doing that took them over 4 hours for this scenario. The other two tables of the same scenario were finished early.

I suggest Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment. You'll be done in aboot 2 hours, tops. Of course, you'll all be dead. I'm joking.

I second We Be Goblins! and Goblinblood Dead. Also, I think Voice in the Void could be finished in yer time frame. It is a bit combat heavy at times, but there is not a ton of role play.

I third or fourth Assault on the Kingdom of the Impossible. I once ran it in 45 minutes.
