You may have battled zombies, vampires and abominable snowmen. However, the greatest terror of all still awaits you: A shipping crisis!

Tier 1-4, the subtier will depend on the players.

Last week didn't fire, so we're trying again. Should there not be enough responses before Sunday I may cancel the game to give everyone the opportunity to focus on other endeavors.

Make sure to both apply here as well as in the game calendar (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/index.xcp?id=6204), stating which character you'd like to play.

Please schedule around 3-4 hours for the game.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-4.

After a malfunctioning freighter stalled out in the Vast and threatened to negatively affect the shipbuilding industry, Multifold Industries puts out an automated call for troubleshooters to locate and repair the ailing ship. A group of Starfinders answers the call and boards the ship with the aim of discovering the root of the problem and solving the ongoing shipping crisis.

Written by: Diego Valdez

Scenario tags: None

Technical details:

We will use Fantasy Grounds Unity (I have an Ultimate license) and Teamspeak (Discord as a backup).

Steps before the game:

If you apply, make sure you let me know your Paizo Organized Play #, character # and your faction.

If you haven't already, also make sure to either build the character on FG yourself (and send it to me) or log in early enough so you can do so on game day.

Make sure you have updated Fantasy Grounds.

FG information and Teamspeak server can be found under GM announcements in the game calendar.

Other notes:

Also make sure to track your purchases on the Inventory Tracking Sheet.

Be sure to apply on time (if you can make it) as the last games were rather full.

In your own interest, make sure the party is somewhat balanced level-wise.

Some boilerplate clarifications:

Please apply on the FG forums on both the game calendar as well as in the game thread (if multiple household members are playing, one person per household is sufficient). First, it's easier to tell how many spots are already filled that way. Second, the other players (as well as the GM) know what level and class to expect from your character (if you don't know yet, simply state TBD). Third, you'll get notified about any updates if you post in the game thread (at least about the first one). Fourth, it allows the GM to determine who applied first should it become relevant. Some exceptions might apply.

Also, please be sure to check the thread for new messages occasionally. You don't have to check each and every day or every few hours but please make sure to reply to any posts that do concern you in time. Should you remain unresponsive, I'll give the spot to a player that applied after you (as I won't know whether you are still interested in participating or not). Exceptions might apply, e.g. if you state beforehand that you won't be able to respond due to traveling.

If you apply but don't show up or drop out during the game without notice, in future games I might also give preference to other players who have a better track record of showing up. I am aware though that life and technical problems can always happen, so don't worry if you have a valid reason though.

These rules are not in place to prevent players from playing but in fact to enable players willing to play to actually do so. It's frustrating if I have to turn down players if it turns out they would in fact have been able to play.have been able to play.

Signed up in the calendar. I have a level 3 exocortex mechanic and a variety of level 1 characters I could bring.

Level 3 witchwarper. Does FG have a way to import from Herolab Online? I've played with this a few times (and PF2).

Unfortunately not as far as I'm aware. If you send me the pdf of your character sheet (more than five minutes before the game) I can input it though.

Contact details should be under Technical details in the calendar.

Since everybody is bringing a 3rd level character, I'll do the same and bring a 3rd level operative.

Looks like the Society is sending in the swat team for this mission.

Society leadership is very concerned about potential delays in the shipment of physical rewards from a project on Driftstarter and is sending in their best agents (or the agents that happened to have the bad fortune of not looking busy enough when the mission was assigned).

Rumour has it, this mission is even easier than picking up a datastick from an office building.

Alright, looks like we are up to five players - curiously all third level.

If anyone needs the server up more than 20-30 minutes before the game, let me know.

What time is the game going to appear in FGU?
Nevermind, answered already

I forgot they actually released two scenarios this month:

Do people prefer Starfinder Society Scenario #4-09: Through Sea and Storm (9-12) or Starfinder Society Scenario #4-10: The Way In (5-8) for SUN November 7th 2.30 PM UTC (your UTC offset may change tomorrow or that day)?

Can we do 1:30 EST or later? Assuming so, the 5-8 would be our preference since there is no pregen for the 9-12, and Carter doesn’t have an eligible character.

Cross-posting here:

"I think we're starting up 5E or PFS2 again next week. Assuming that is correct, 1.30 PM Eastern would unfortunately collide with that."

I'm good with either scenario.

I'll ask Robb if he'd be available next week to figure out the possible playerbase for high level scenarios.
