SFS Guide v3?


Starfinder Society


Do we know anything about when it comes out? A comment on blog post a few weeks ago said "next week" so I'm wondering if I missed something or if it's been delayed?

A very bookish Vesk with huge oversized milspec glasses pushes them up her snout.

"Um, is that with a 1 rating Drift Drive or um, a 2 Rating? And, ah, if they're going to the mythical 'Earth' System, then that'd be in, ah, another ah, galaxy so ah, we um, don't uh... have math for ah, how long that would ah, take... right?"

I hope they get rid of the rule against running the same module a second time with a different character.

I would not count on this happening any time soon.

Given that it's a thing for PFS2, making it three systems in a row...can't see it being removed.

I believe it's in place to promote diversity in play and preventing spoilers from people who have already played it.

There is so much replay available right now. Between Repeatable adventures, Second Seekers (Jadnura) Faction replays and GM Nova replays, I can barely keep up, and I have 19 characters.

Apparently many 6s were rolled...

The guide was listed as updated in my downloads today ... only to have the download still be version 2.

Updated! Just downloaded it, and unlike rogueyeys, mine is v3.0 Year of Exploration's Edge. Now to actually read it....

First thing I looked for was:

Select your character’s race. The choices offered in Chapter 3 of the Starfinder Core Rulebook are always available, as are the Legacy races in Chapter 13. Additionally, the following races from are always available provided you own a copy of the appropriate source book: draelik, formian, ikeshti, kalo, maraquoi, nuar, rhyphorian, verthani, witchwyrd from Starfinder Alien Archive, as well as izalguun from Starfinder Alien Archive 3.

Anyone see a change to the definition of a new character?

Almost as big as the additional always available races change. That boon is going to be a must have

Second Seekers (Ehu Hadif) 4/5 5/55/55/55/5 ****

Always available nuars? This will be a dream for many of my players!

Nice to see most of the Pact World races (okay, not Dirindi or Sazurons -- maybe next season for those two) free for every player to select. We can have a truly representative Pact Worlds now!

I do love the Historical Analyst boon! It will be a happy addition to my formerly SS Roheas character who switched over to Ehu Hadif.

Hmm

There was a clarification from Thursty, at some point after the Legacy Races became always available, that if you already had a Convention Boon opening the race up, you could instead convert that Boon to a +2 to any stat 14 or lower (akin to many of the Chronicle-granted races).

I wonder if that applies to these new races as well?

I believe that any boons that previously unlocked these races already had the text in there that it could be used as +2 if you got it from another source. If anybody has evidence that they don't, let me know and I'll see what we can do.

For my Nuar boon it certainly doesn't have that text.

2018 GM boon 3c - mega region 1

Sovereign Court 4/5 5/5 ** Venture-Lieutenant, Netherlands—Leiden

I also don't have that text on the following boons:

2018 GM Boon 1A - Mega Region 1 (Kalo/Verthani)
2019 GM Boon 3D - Mega Region 2 (Formian/Ghoran/Pahtra)
2019 GM Boon 3C - Mega Region 1 (Embri, Phentomite, Witchwyrd)
2019 GM Boon 1A - Mega Region 1 (Bolida, Kalo, Vlaka)
2018 GM Boon 2B - Mega Region 3 (Draelik, Witchwyrd)

Does this also apply to that one scenario that granted halfling access (and which did have the +2 text)? Would it apply if I got that boon before they became legal but didn't make a halfling until now?

Yes, but the other Blog clarifies that the "Admittance" Boons take up your Personal Boon slot, whereas the Convention Boons
(such as Legacy Heritage) don't.
