Strength of Thousands as a 1-10

From the looks of descriptions Strength of Thousands seems to have two clear arcs separated by modules 1-3 then 4-6. Has there been any news regarding if this is a possibility baked into them?


Does it seem like there’s two arcs? I see the one: doing things for the Magaambya.


I thought it looked like 3 arcs,

1-2 students in Nantambu
3-4 doing good works across the expanse
5-6 major threat from the "place" and it's origins and resolution.

Actually I think this is more accurate.

1 overarching theme, with 3 discrete sub arcs that explore the theme from different directions, but express the conflicts for different level bands is my favorite "shape" of a Pathfinder adventure path.

It's one of the reasons I'm looking forward to this one. All APs are campaigns, yet this one could feel like a campaign in ways the others haven't because of the three acts and the time-skips. If it's a success, I hope they do more like it.

same, these 3 arcs seem to be really interesting in their own right and I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays. I could see a Book 1-2 short AP campaign theoretically working out if you wanted to stick purely to the magic school stuff and not the overarching plot but the books aren't out yet so its hard to say for sure
