The Greater Medusa, from the Tome of Horrors, seems terribly underpowered. It's classed as a CR 8 creature, but it has only 52 hp and an AC of 16. Its gaze attack only works within 30 feet, but any party of 8th level can do 52 ranged damage while staying well out of Gaze range. How would you...

That's beautifully succinct. I think I might change my "maze" to a room coated in extra-slippery (a la spell grease) ice. Fun.

Hmm...do you want the REAL term or something that works in a fantasy world?

Sammiches all around! I love the taste of Sonic the Hedgehog characters between my slices of bread. *gives a giant knuckles sammich to EnWorld*

Hey, a bit late, but happy birthday! Maybe, just maybe, if we ask really nicely, WotC will release some more 4E tidbits in honor of your birthday! :P *hopes*

Only the cries of anguish of my players.

Which of the above are most based off of Gary Gygax? (PS: Gary, feel free to answer this poll too ;) )

How can one make a maze work in a game of DnD? Drawing the whole maze on the battlemap (or even drawing it as the PCs discover it) is painstaking, and it gets rid of the feeling of "I don't know how to get back to the entrance." In particular, I'm planning a combat in a 150 foot diameter...

Within the accepted assumptions, we do. It's just that those assumptions are ridiculous :D

I"m in total agreement there.

One of the issues is that I want them to at least roleplay it as being deadly. I'm considering having there be some serious consequences coming down on the PCs (who are all CG or CN...that goddman excuse for CE and we know it :P ). They have been tramping all over anybody that gets in there...

Not that I know of... Are you planning on making him an epic level character, or is it LONG before attaining godhood?

Woohoo!

Sounds like a great session!

I've never posted it, and I haven't read it on EnWorld before, but I wouldn't be surprised. Surrounded by and then charging mook crossbowmen happens to every party once in a while. EDIT: E6 sounds interesting. After my current campaign is done, I might run an E6 one. I need some gritty fantasy...

Touché.

Well, I'm a senior in High School, so I'm not going "back" but it is really great to be able to go there. Also: this thread is pretty much done. No need to fill up the rules forum with our tangents.

Oh. Didn't know that acronym. I guess every city would have to have units of powerful guards just to deal with adventurer types and the like. That's what I've been doing so far, but I was looking for ways for the regular people to be somewhat dangerous. I guess it is futile. Hey guys, totally...

"eru"?

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.
