Year of the Sky Key - Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide version 6

[Michael Klaus]

Like many others I am looking forward to delve into my newly acquired Pathfinder Society Scenarios Megapack for Year of the Sky Key.

I can see that most people would simply adapt the scenarios into standard home play but so many other integrate parts of the PFS rules into their home groups. Sadly I do not have a copy of version 6 of the guide on my computer or my backup.

Wouldn't this be a good time to make old versions of the guide available again?

Actually I sent out a ticket with a similar question three weeks ago to the customer service but now I fell that more people might be interested in it.

Even when running older scenarios, you should use the current version of the Guide. It contains rules for running older scenarios where necessary, though there aren't many significant changes between season 6 and 7, with the exception of the creation of the Core campaign.

Yep, the season seven guide will suffice. The only thing that Six had that Seven doesn't is a glitch table for the handful of scenarios that have timeworn tech, but you can find that table and info about timeworn tech here.

Sounds like both of you still have the version handy. Maybe someone could simply send it to me so I can see that I have imagined the other stuff I already found useful for a Iron Gods campaign back then.

It is watermarked with the downloader's information, so unfortunately no, it can't be sent to another person.

Can anybody tell me why this was now moved to the PFS General discussion? I really thought I might get an answer from CS.

And I wasn't serious, although it is questionable if the reason behind the personalization is that you should not distribute the free resources or rather that it is a side effect of giving us the newest version in the most convenient way: to give automated updates, they had to treat it like the non free downloads; at least that's what I get from the product discussion.

As the above posters said, though, there's really nothing in the Season 6 Guide that isn't in the Season 7 Guide. The technology chart is just reprinted from the Technology Guide, and that's available on the PRD.

And Michael is correct. Even though the Guides are free, they still fall under Paizo's legal terms. Free to purchase, not free to distribute.
