Gallows of Madness Chronicle question

Silver Crusade 5/5

Ok, this is another one where the wording isn't very clear. I'm sure the writer knew what they wanted it to say, but... well, it isn't very clear to me.

I'm putting it in a spoiler for those of you who have stumbled in here, but haven't played it...

From the Bonus Chronicle:

...When you earn this Chronicle sheet, you may choose whether or not to receive XP, Prestige Point, and gold rewards; you may instead choose to gain no XP and gold, but you instead earn 2 Prestige Points and still qualify for all of the boons and items on this sheet. If you elect to earn the full rewards, you gain 3 XP, 6 Prestige Points, and 3,711 gp (1,856 gp for characters use the slow track method of advancement).

SO... if we decide NOT to take the XP and gold, what do we get?

a) 2 PP and the boons and items on the sheet?
b) 6 PP and the boons and items on the sheet?
c) 6 PP and 2 PP and the boons and items on the sheet?
d) Can we choose not to gain the XP, but get the PP and Gold?
e) Can we choose not to gain the GP, but still get the XP and PP?
f) Am I just overthinking this.
g) something else?

Thanks for your help!

a) 2 PP and the boons and items on the sheet.

I chose to do this with Cup because

a) I get a lot of GM chronicles and knew that I could catch her up with the group with which she plays

and

b) I wanted to partially repair the hit to her fame that she took for doing a bunch of modules.

Does this make sense?

Hmm

You receive the boons, 2 prestige, and access to purchase items off the chronicle sheet. It's to give a reward to players who have played all three parts, but who don't want to fast-track their PC through the levels.

So, it's (a).

A.

For D, the answer is no. That would break wealth by level quite a bit.
For E, the answer is no. The Gold and XP are part of the same choice.

Ha! I am a gnomish ninja!

(That's what I used that extra prestige for.)

Hmm

1 person marked this as a favorite.

so there are only two options

From the Bonus Chronicle:

...When you earn this Chronicle sheet, you may choose whether or not to receive XP, Prestige Point, and gold rewards; you may instead choose to gain no XP and gold, but you instead earn 2 Prestige Points and still qualify for all of the boons and items on this sheet. If you elect to earn the full rewards, you gain 3 XP, 6 Prestige Points, and 3,711 gp (1,856 gp for characters use the slow track method of advancement).

1) gain 3 XP, 6 Prestige Points, and 3,711 gp (1.5 XP, 3PP, and 1,856 gp for characters use the slow track method of advancement), "and the boons and items on the sheet".

or

2) 2 PP (1 PP for characters on slow track?) and the boons and items on the sheet?


correct?

That's correct. And spoiler tags are generally redundant in the GM forum.
