Pathfinder Society Campaign in Roll20

[Thomas Brister]

Hi,

I am trying to organize and run a Roll20 Pathfinder Society Campaign starting with NEW players. My intention is to run my group through Pathfinder Society AP and scenarios as their core campaign experience.

I have downloaded and prepped the two free Pathfinder modules available, Torment & Legacy AND The Blooming Catastrophe. I have also read that a few of the Adventure Paths that I can buy in the Roll20 Market as delineated by this list...
https://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/additional#AP

These modules are expensive and they only have one module for low-level play in the AP, if any at all.

The effort to convert current Pathfinder Scenarios manually into usable modules looks pretty intimidating to me at this point. I am looking for guidance/advice on the following:

1. What approved Pathfinder Society low-level (1-4) content is available in Roll20 for immediate play? For our players to level out of this tier they would need ~12 scenarios, yes?

2. Is buying the Adventure paths that approved for Society play a reasonable/sustainable means for my campaign?

3. What is your guidance/experience on converting PF2e Society Scenarios into Roll20?

All help is appreciated!

Those are 1st edition Adventure Paths.. I don't 2nd edition has sanctioned any Adventure Paths yet.. "The Fall of Plaguestone" module is sanctioned, other than that, Roll20 seems to just have "The Blooming Catastrophe" from what I see..

I've never used Roll20 so can't really give advice for conversion, but you can try asking on discord.. https://discord.com/channels/174387273415000065/175027560365686784

The Age of Ashes AP was sanctioned back in July, but Roll20 has already stated they will not go back and put up the AoA content until well after they get used to simultaneous releases with the Agents of Edgewatch content.

Honestly OP, your best bet is to either learn to manually input the Society content in for yourself, or drop Roll20 and try a different platform for 2E content. I've since switched to Foundry VTT and found it much more up-to-date and easier to use.

Other GMs can also loan tables they have made for society scenarios. If you are in a location with an active “in person” (though probably operating online at the moment) society group, they might be able to hook you up with some ideas/help. There is also the online lodge at http://pfschat.com.

My understanding is that Roll20 has no immediate plans to create and sell the individual scenarios for Pathfinder or Starfinder.
