[QUOTE="Inconsequenti-AL, post: 2098681, member: 6584"] Very swift update. Just got back from the session and I've got to work tomorrow! Anyway, it's not good. ;) We're about 3 rounds into the fight. Opened up with a bunch of spells: Fiendish T-Rex kept one of the Slaad busy but is about to drop. Didn't manage a single hit. Wall of Force - disintegrated by the Slaadi king. Confusion - laughed at it - everyone has will saves through the roof. (except for a few of us!) I found out these Slaadi are immune to Sonics. Via a Quickened True Strike and an Empowered Sonic Orb. Doh! :D One Slaad is trapped in a Force Cage. Soon to be disintegrated, I guess. Cleric has been busy casting buffs, circles against evil and healing. Direct damage has been the only stuff with any noticable effect, and it's not that impressive... They've laughed at firestorms and DB fireballs - and that's the stuff that can actually get through their resistances. :eek: The fighters managed to close inside the pike range of one of the Slaad and have hurt it. They are truly monsterous. Many HP, ACs in the mid 30's, high DR and deal ~60 points of ALL VILE damage per round. :eek: Word of Chaos has deafened a couple of us. The gits are nearly as bad. Soul Knives with a stack of anti spellcaster feats. They've hacked into our Wizard and Cleric, sending their Int and Wis plummeting. :confused: We've killed 1 of them... The Queen is sat in an anti magic field hurling psionics at us. A 20D6 ultrablast hurt. Nearly as much as her dominating our Archer. Then using telekinisis to move him far away from the Circles against evil. The King hasn't really engaged himself too heavily. Thrown a greater hexblade curse around, then chucked some spells from the cheap seats. Figuring his holy word will kill or paralyze... The whole place is warded with a lock against ethereal travel and a teleport redirect - not to anywhere nice, I guess. Summons still work though. To sum up: We've blown through our higher level stuff, resulting in 1 1/2 dead mooks. Most of us are still fairly healthy... apart from the dominated archer. Current options: On my next go - try the bluffing. Teleport lucky dip - into the Queens prison I'm presuming? Surrender. TPK. Seems about the size of it! Still, it's all good fun and I guess that's what counts! :D [/QUOTE]
