GM'ing & Reporting a Module with Multiple Sanctioned Content Sections


GM Discussion

2/5

I'm planning to GM some PFS sessions for a small local group of players, probably something like monthly.

Looking for some advice on how a module like Daughters of Fury that has three sections of sanctioned content works in terms of chronicle sheets and especially how the rules on characters being tied to the 'event' work.

A full day session could probably complete one of the three sanctioned content parts of the module, but there's no way we'll finish the whole book in one sitting. Hopefully we'd achieve part 1 in the first session and come back next month to do part 2. The rules on 'multi-session adventures' could be read in a couple of ways so wanted to check I had this right.

As I read it, the characters are tied into the sanctioned content section and can't play other characters until they have finished that chapter & receive the chronicle sheet for that part. They could play other PFS scenarios in between say part 1 & part 2 or between part 2 & part 3, just not while they are in the middle of a chapter. Is that interpretation correct?

How does that change if different players join for part 2 / 3 ?

How does that change if you are letting the players play non-PFS characters and applying the credit as if playing a pregen?

All advice gratefully received.

When running these longer modules, each section with a chronicle sheet counts as an individual adventure. PCs are not prevented from participating in adventures between the sanctioned parts of the module.
But, if you stop play in the middle of a section, the PC can not play in anything else until that section is completed or it receives a chronicle without completing the section.

Since each section is considered a single adventure it doesn't matter if the same group of PCs participate in all of them. It could be a completely different group.

For "campaign" style play you can ignore all of that and do pretty much what you want.

Thanks Bradley - answers what I needed to know perfectly
