I am running two parties of three characters through Skull and Shackles. I am going to try to keep them within one adventure deck of each other. Party A (Damiel, Kyra and The Tonz) has completed an adventure that has loot cards and keeps them incorporating them into their decks. Party B (Lem, Ranzak and Vyka) goes through the same adventure. What happens when Party B completes the adventure and should gain the reward? I guess I could just switch the cards back and forth between parties but that's not much fun. For extra fun, I am thinking about having the parties join up and complete the last scenario in every adventure. What if I put the A&B parties together?
We ran into the same thing. I ended up houseruling that if the loot cards aren't available for the scenario reward, each a player is allowed to pick a card type, draw 2 of that type from the box at random, keep one and banish the other.

It's 100% a house rule of your choice how to hand me. Unless your houseruling, your adventure parties are completely separate and what is in one party's decks is completely irrelevant to the other partyy and you really should be deconstructing them so the other party can have a chance at those cards.
If you're going to play them as separate parties using the same pool of cards though then you're just going to be out of luck when it comes to things like loot. You'll need to come up with your own way, like Pyrocat's, to deal with situations.

I like that suggestion thanks but since I solo play exclusively will probably edit it slightly to draw two cards for whole party of same type as missing loot and put back one.
We have multiple games going at the same time, and just break the decks up and shuffle them back in when we switch games.

Normally that's fine. but when the other party gets 3 adventures ahead, and both parties start banishing Basics/Elites, it becomes a lot of work.
We actually just take pictures of the the character decks instead of writing it down to save some work, but bookkeeping is still tedious. Can't wait for WotR to split parties into a base set each. hehe

Since I run organized play with my personal base set, I plan on just using the organized play rules for purging Basic and Elite cards for my home game. This will change the dynamic a lot, causing you to encounter more power banes and boons more often right away once you start Adventure 4, but I think it would make the game pretty interesting. However, I haven't tried it yet since I'm waiting for the Adventure 4 correction pack before I start it in my home game.

Wait, what? This is the first I've heard of a correction pack.
Info on it in the FAQ.
Neat, thanks
