I see that Adventure Deck 3 is now showing a November ship date instead of October (Adventure Deck 4 is still showing November). So is that true? Will we be getting two Adventure decks in November and none in October?
Ya, Deck 3 was pushed back to November due to all of the recent delays. If you check the stickies at the top of the customer service forum, you can see the Deck 4 was pushed to December with no PACG products at all being released in October, so more than likely the whole AP is going to be running a month behind.

I don't know if it's Paizo or the manufacturer (manufacturer from the sound of it), but somebody needs to get their act together. S&S rollout has been a borderline disaster from day one. Class Decks as well, and to the point that the schedule for Organized Play is terrible.
I suppose a "silver lining" to this is that now the messed up schedule for PACG just fixed the messed up schedule for OP. Not really a good silver lining though.
I'm looking for advice, should i start my subscription with the character add-on or with the 2nd adventure deck?
It doesn't matter. Whatever you order, you will get the same thing - just in a different box.
Oh Ok, was not aware that the add-on box was part of the subscription. Thought it was different for some reason.
Hi, sorry - in my previous post I was being facetious and referring to the recent mix-up with some subscribers being sent the add-on cards in their deck 2 packs.
Genuinely, I'm not sure on the ordering of the subscription. The character add-on pack is not essential unless you want to play with more than four characters, or you want to have a wider range of characters to choose from when selecting your adventuring party.
Oh Ok, was not aware that the add-on box was part of the subscription. Thought it was different for some reason.
And to try to answer your question correctly - I believe if you start with deck 2 then you will skip the character add-on pack.
If you start with the add-on, you will get the add-on and deck 2 right away, because they have both been released already. In fact, the option to start with the add-on will probably be unavailable soon.
If you want promos, start with the add-on.

As Hawkmoon says, starting with the Add-On Deck gets you 5 promo cards right off the bat. I don't think they come with the AD2.
Starting Adventure 2 will get you the Owlbeartross and a Blessing of Zogmugut or however you spell it. Starting with the Add on Deck will get you those, plus a Goblin Weidling ship, Goblin Keelhaulin' barrier, Mogmurch ally, and Ranzak the promo character from Free RPG Day in June.
