Starting a new PACG Event

[dlheal]

Hello my name is David. I am trying to set up a new PACG event at the Black Diamond Games store in Concord, CA. I have never hosted a pathfinder event (or any other organized event for that matter), and had a couple of questions about the process. I know that we are currently in the season of shackles for the PACG, but I own all the materials for the Rise of the Runelords set, and was hoping to play through that first. When I tried to create my event on here I noticed that there was no way to select anything from the Rise of the Runelords for the "scenario" option. Does that mean we cannot play it organized? Any advice or idea are welcome. We all start at level 1...

Hey David, I'm the Venture Captain for the SF Bay Area and am happy to help get you guys set up.

Organized play for the ACG currently is only for Skull & Shackles. You could of course just play through the Rise of the Runelords box and not do it as organized play. I may also have access to a Skull & Shackles box I could lend you.

Feel free to post more here or better yet, email me
vcRob(at)pfsprep(dot)com
and I'll help make sure you have an awesome event.

If you ever do get an OP going at Black Diamond Games, I'd definitely be interested to join. I live in Vallejo and supposedly the closest OP to me was in Oakland I think which was a bit of a drive. I'd be willing to drive to BDG though as I already stop by there maybe a few times a month.

The guy at BDG has an excellent blog, for those of you who like to geek out over game trade stuff.

David, you're in excellent hands with Rob.

Hey Nyte,

I haven't gotten a chance to talk with David yet, but I did see that he created an event on Warhorn for the ACG here on the 28th.

Thanks, Pirate Rob, for the heads up. I've emailed the organizer for now.

Hello guys, I'm sorry I haven't responded. I'm been checking on here all day, but I was only looking at my inbox and there haven't been any alerts so I had no idea you were talking.

Rob, I would love whatever advice and support you can offer. So far as I am aware, I've come to agreement with one of the managers at Black Diamond Games. I will have one table set aside for Pathfinder ACG every Tuesday from 6pm to 10pm. Which given the two hour suggested play time for a scenario, party interest willing, we could play 2 scenarios a night. I've had the RotRLs set for awhile now, and I've only had the chance for solo play. So I'm really itching to play through it, at its full glory, at least once. But as soon as we're done, I would gladly take you up on some Shackles play.

Nyte, unfortunately I haven't seen an email come through from you. But I do currently have an event set up on warhorn.net. From what it sounds like from Rob, this will not be an OP event from the beginning, as RoTRLs is out of "season". But I welcome to come play with us. I plan on trying to record the event in an OP manner, but I guess I just don't get to report it.

Thanks for the chat and interest. Happy Gaming!
