The Skull & Shackles Adventure Path is now PFS sanctioned. This means that we can play it for PFS credit in one of two ways:
1) with in tier PFS characters adventuring through select portions of the adventure path.
2) in campaign mode, using home game rules and characters (I am ding this with Rise of the Runelords for my Saturday game). Players receive chronicles as if they played a pregen and can assign them to existing or new characters per the rules outline in the Guide to Organized Play.
The PFS credits are 3 XP and 4 PP (plus gold, boons and items available) per chronicle and are awarded for the following tiers:
Book 1 - tier 2-4
Book 2 - tier 5-7
Book 3 - tier 7-9
Book 4 - tier 9-11
Book 5 - tier 11-13
Book 6 - tier 13-15
If folks are interested, we can look at trying this out after Gen Con. I think that campaign mode works the best but it can be a commitment. An adventure path is made up of six 96-page books. This one takes characters from 1st to 14th level. We will have new miniatures in July and I already have pawns and some ship maps.
OH. HELL. YES.

ReplyDeleteCampaign mode might be best, considering the flightyness of some of our attendants.
ReplyDeleteCampaign mode is really the best of both worlds. You get the PFS credit and the home game feel.
ReplyDeletei agree (and i have experience w/it) campaign mode rocks!
ReplyDeleteSo wait. We get to make up 39 point characters and play for PFS credit? Level for level?
ReplyDeleteIf you play the whole thing (all 6 books) you would receive 6 chronicles each worth 3 XP and 4 PP to be applied to PFS characters as you choose.
DeleteThe chronicles fit characters as follows:
Book 1 - tier 2-4
Book 2 - tier 5-7
Book 3 - tier 7-9
Book 4 - tier 9-11
Book 5 - tier 11-13
Book 6 - tier 13-15
Or you can take the creadit and apply it to a 1st level guy at reduced gold.
Not exactly level for level, but pretty GD cool.
