[QUOTE="Abciximab, post: 5759001, member: 46017"] [Center]End of Session 24.[/Center] Wow, looks like they grown ‘em big in these parts! Two Gargantuan animals in one session. GM Soanso has purchased the Paper Minis for this portion of the AP and they are pretty cool if anyone is looking for a cheap alternative to Plastic/Metal minis. I like that the picture matches the creature in every encounter. If it hadn’t been for them, we would have been using dragons for bats and crocs (not that there’s anything wrong with that, it just eliminates the “What is it?” questions and the answers where you try to explain what it is without necessarily saying exactly what it is). The only downside is that when they are that big, the paper base tends to sag a little when elevated and the space the creature occupies can be hard to visualize (even with Cardstock, though I suppose you could glue cardboard to the bottom for added rigidity). I think this can be a problem with all flying creatures larger than Medium sized to some extent. The Bat “Five Foot Flapped” up at an angle (to the mouth of the cave) and I found it a little confusing (“Uh, what just happened?”). No big deal really and easily explained, but there were a lot of, “where exactly is he in relation to me” questions that round. As an aside, I must say, I think I have come to like the term “Shift” better than “Five Foot Step”. The Crocodile was a cool encounter. I don’t think I’ve seen the Grab/Swallow Whole/Cut Free scenario in pathfinder up to this point. It was cool that Max came through it alive (at 12 hp), the “Oh Crap! He’s a Goner!/Yay! He’s Safe!” rollercoaster made for an epic encounter. I also found it funny that the Super-Croc whose diet of choice was other crocs managed to swallow the party member whose Animal Spirit is a Crocodile. Looks like Karma Stabbed the Gargantuan Croc in the Gut. Edit: Max has informed me that it was not this Karma guy (whoever he is) that stabbed the Gargantuan Crocodile. It was, in fact, Max. [/QUOTE]
