First Post
As I may have let on in previous threads/posts I'm interested in doing mass combat and such in my campaigns. Now everyone knows that PCs should not be up on the wall fighting like common foot soldiers, they should be sneaking out of the city and setting fire to siege weapons and attacking the enemy commanders, doing all those bad-ass things PCs do.
However, sometimes you need your players to be in the thick of it, commanding the common foot soldiers, and sometimes having to know how they'll do in a fight. And, as humans don't have an entry in the Bestiary, for some reason, we don't have example stats for any of them. I however tore the Rulebook apart going through things and I think I found a decent enough stat block for them. Please tell me what you think.
Human Foot Soldier
Warrior CR 1
STR - 12
DEX - 10
CON - 12
INT - 10
WIS - 10
CHA - 10
Base Attack Bonus +1
Fortitude +3
Reflex +0
Will +0
CMB +2
CMD - 16
HP 11
AC 15
Touch 10
FlatFooted 15
Intimidate +4
Ride +4
Attacks:
Longsword; +2; 19-20 x2; 1d8+1
Longbow; +1; x3; 1d8
Equipment: Longsword, Longbow (20 arrows), Chain shirt, Light Steel Shield
I give them a 12 in Strength and Constitution because I figure that basic training would toughen up those areas, it might to Dexterity too. I've never been in the military so I can't exactly know. As for the skills, I put ranks in Intimidate and Ride because I'd figure battle cries and such would work for Intimidate and Ride because... well these could be cavalry troops. All you'd have to do for that is tweak their equipment to give them lances or spears.
I didn't put a free +2 anywhere for being human or any feats since their NPCs and I'm not sure if they still lend themselves to them, like I said, no entry in the Bestiary. Your thoughts?
