[QUOTE="Wolfspider, post: 29412, member: 300"] Sounds pretty good. Seems like a satisfying and exciting encounter. The party seemed to soak up the lighting breath pretty easily--12d8 with a saving DC of 25 is nothing to sneeze at. Protection from elements certainly saved the party's life (if not their mounts). I can't imagine the rogue actually [i]charging[/i] the dragon. Certainly not a wise tactic, and he deserved to suffer a bit. The ranger was heroic, but he should have retreated in order to use his bow more effectively. I'm also amused that the party apparently tried to use the dragon to snuff their arch-nemesis. LOL! Anyway, I'm supposed to be examining the dragon's tactics, not the party's. You seemed to play the dragon well. I think it was a good encounter, with a mix of role-playing and exciting combat. I can just imagine what the PCs were thinking when they heard the dragon land right above them and dig in. I'm glad the dragon was able to retreat and that he was able to slay at least one of the party member (who will hopefully be raised to continue his grude against dragons). I think your encounter gave the PCs and their characters something to think about the next time they try to fight to face this (relatively young) dragon and others of its race. [/QUOTE]
