2 Circus Imperium Circus Imperium FASA Board Friday Atomic Squash 10th Annual Race for the DieCon Cup! Compete for the coveted recognition as the Atomic Squash Circus Imperium Champion. Circus Imperium is a tongue in cheek chariot racing game loosely based on FASA's RPG Renegade Legion. Players attempt to complete three circuits while keeping their chariots and drivers intact. The main challenge is maneuvering around the bends while attempting to disable or block your opponents. The game has some brief miniature rules and provisions for all sorts of carnage. Maneuvering cards also add a bit of randomness to the race. Not for the serious strategist, but all in all a nice fun diversion. Get Ready to Whip the Beasts!
2 6-99: True Dragons of Absalom (Special) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff For several years, the Pathfinder Society has enjoyed a mutually beneficial alliance with the Sewer Dragons, the dominant tribe of kobolds living beneath Absalom. When an elite patrol discovers a wounded member of the Society with a desperate message, the Sewer Dragons must move quickly intercept an extraordinary threat from seizing their territory—if not Absalom itself! In this special adventure the players portray kobolds as unlikely defenders of the City at the Center of the World using 4th-level pregenerated characters.
2 7-22: Bid For Alabastrine (1-5) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff Decades ago, the merchant nation of Druma anticipated a wave of migrants and built the city Alabastrine to accommodate them. The mass migration never happened. Always seeking a return on investment, Druma recently began auctioning off control of the city to the highest bidders and wealthiest entrepreneurs for five years at a time. The next auction begins soon, and the powerful Aspis Consortium gold agent Myrosype—an enemy of the Society responsible for countless Pathfinders’ deaths—is poised to take control of the whole city for her own nefarious ends. The Society has secured a few invitations for the PCs to attend the auction. Can they disrupt the event’s delicate politics in order to stop their rival, or will the Aspis Consortium gain an unassailable stronghold? Content in “Bid for Alabastrine” also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Exchange Faction. Content in this scenario also ties into a special metaplot element from Pathfinder Society Special #6–98: Serpents Rise. Players who have completed that special event are encouraged to bring its Chronicle sheet when playing this adventure.
2 Season of the Runelords Pathfinder Adventure Paizo Board Friday PFS Staff Who hasn’t heard of the Heroes of Sandpoint? Surely all of Varisia knows of the brave adventurers who ventured into the ruined heart of the Thassilonian Empire and slayed Karzoug, the Runelord of Greed. You’ve always thought it strange that those ancient folks wanted to worship at the altar of various sins, but since the ruins of their old nation-states litter the landscape even today, it must have worked for them. But the whole “defeat a legendary power thought long dead” routine raises a few questions in your mind, and the muttering you’ve heard in tavern after tavern proves you’re not the only ones wondering. How did Karzoug come back from the dead after thousands of years? Why did he come back from the dead after thousands of years? And the big one, the question that keeps you up sometimes at night… Why do people think he’s the only Runelord to come back?

2 7-23: Abducted in Aether (7-11) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff Among the greatest crimes committed during an attack on the Grand Lodge was the abduction of a high-ranking member of the Pathfinder Society. The Society has tracked the kidnapped to another plane of existence, where his captor is preparing to sell her prize to a host of otherworldly bidders. Can the PCs intervene and mount a rescue before the esteemed captive disappears forever? Content in “Abducted in Aether” also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Grand Lodge faction.
2 7-19: Labyrinth of Hungry Ghosts (3-7) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff Following a successful mission into the mist-shrouded and shifting Gloomspires, the Pathfinder Society sent another team to explore the tomb of the legendary pirate Sevenfingers.

2 Breaking the Canadian Blockade - 1865 USA vs. British Iron & Fire: Naval Rules for the Ironclad Period 1850-1880 Felix Enterprises Miniature Friday BM: Steve Lowry Era: American Civil War Naval Combat with 1/1200 scale. Hypothetical Scenario – In the fall of 1865, the US demanded that England compensate the US for damages caused by ships built in England and used as commerce raiders against US shipping during the American Civil War. Assuming that England refused to submit the matter to a World Court, the US could declare a naval blockade of the Canadian coast until England settled with the US. The British navy considered itself sovereign of the seas so the most powerful British fleet was dispatched to Canada to break the American blockade of Canada. The US, expecting such a reaction, had assembled its most powerful fleet off the Canadian cost to contest the matter. The side with the most ship points still in action at the end of the contest will be considered the winner.
