Suggestion for Organized Play Scenarios


Pathfinder Adventure Card Society


We're having a lot of fun going through the Organized Play scenarios.

During our last game, one of my comrade-in-arms made a very pertinent suggestion: it would be very helpful if the scenario code was featured on the printed sheet -- somewhere in the header would seem to make sense.

So, for example, the header for Salvage Operations would appear as:
.

................................SALVAGE OPERATIONS................................
...........................................0-1E............................ .................

Good suggestion. Those codes came into being after layout was done on the first batch, but I suspect we can swap out the number in the upper right corner for the code.


Hmm...I also just noticed the sheets actually have the scenario number on them, as opposed to the adventure deck number. It might be helpful to have the adventure deck number of the scenario some where handy as well. Which seems the be the second number of the code.

Since the scenario number doesn't yet matter in-game (and I can't imagine where it ever will), I think that code in the top right instead of the scenario number would work. "0-1E" tells you what season it is from, the current adventure number, and which scenario it is. If we ever do need to know the number... well if you can't count to C (yes we count letters now!) then you have a different problem.

Cards with the Veteran trait usually care about the scenario's adventure deck number, but no, I can't imagine anything caring about the scenario's... um... "scenario card letter"?

Given that you can play scenarios in nonlinear order, I can imagine something caring about whether your character has completed certain scenarios. A card (printed on the page) that says "When you encounter this card, if you have completed scenario 01-A, add the Magic trait to all your checks against it" is totally plausible, at least in my admittedly limited understanding.

Ha! Mike is correct—we do have something very much like that coming in Season of the Shackles Adventure 3... but we don't use the scenario number, we just use the name.

Good to know. I've just been writing down the scenario numbers on chronicles sheets as its way faster than writing down names. guess i will have to write the names down.

Well, we haven't actually sent one of those out yet, so it's not too late to make it say the number *and* the name...
