The PCs are surrounded in a surprise attack. They are wearing no armor, and their weapons are sheathed. Twelve crossbowmen have their deadly weapons trained on the hearts of the PCs.
What's inaccuracy in hit points got to do with it? You're dealing with 10th lvl PCs. These are not normal human beings any more. They're far more akin to epic heroes and comic book superheroes than to any human being on our planet. Would Beowulf or Hercules or Cuchulainn surrender because a dozen people with crossbows showed up? Nope. They'd kill them without breaking a sweat and go back to whatever they were doing.KrazyHades said:What the argument comes down to is the inaccuracy in hitpoints. But then, if health was done accurately, NOBODY would be a living adventurer for long. Few enough survive as is.
Gah.
