No way would I allow the spell to follow an invisible guy around. That allows a 2nd-lvl divine spell to foil invisibility for EVERYONE involved in the battle: "Look guys! Follow the hammer!" If the opponent goes invisible, I'd have the weapon continue attacking the space in question unless...

I use an Excel spreadsheet to auto generate all NPC rolls - saves a bunch of time! I agree with the initiative cards - absolutely necesary. We found that summoning creatures ate up a lot of time so now any player that wants to summon something is responsible for having its stats on hand. No...

Whats with the (tm) behind Real Life? You can't trademark that phrase...

Even better. Thanks!

Ahhh, ok. Thanks for the quick replies...

MM states it functions as a 4th-lvl spell. 4th-lvl!?!?! So its summoned creatures only stick around for 4 rounds!?!?! Am I missing something? It casts spells as a 13th-lvl caster yet its summoning ability only functions as a 4th-lvl spell?

I boiled some water in a kettle and then dipped the minis. 1 minute was way more than needed; I only left them in for 10-15 seconds or so. It's a great fix for warped bases or minis that are bent at an angle.

I agree. I didn't say 50 stupid hobgoblins. They'll be dispersed, willing to use grappling, arrow fire at spell casters, etc. They'll be fodder in that they'll probably go down in 1 shot.

Will WotC be making gargantuan and/or colossal minis? (Sorry, wrong forum. Can a mod move this to General Discussion?)

You have to remember that players will use the spells for purposes other than what the spell is named. For example, the scout spell is perfect for combat and allows a spellcaster to get several useful spells off all in one shot...

I believe each side rerolls when the distance is halved and if both parties fail again they automatically see each other when the distance is halved a second time.

Thanks for the replies!

I tried the boiling water method earlier and also came up with the ice water solution. It seemed to work for all but one mini (damn that sword keeps wanting to bend into a scimitar!).

I used to DM the same way but our group has since discovered that it's more fun to keep PCs alive - barring some incredibly stupid act or metagaming. Creating new characters all the time gets boring fast and discourages players from developing their character to any degree of death. I'd say...

Anyone know a good source for paper templates that I can print out and use as bases for large/huge/gargantuan/colossal creatures?

I want to throw a battle with 50+ hobgoblins (normal) against the party (6 12th-lvl characters). I realize that they aren't worth any xp due to their low CR. But considering that there are 50 of them, should they be worth something? I don't want to give them levels or templates, I just want a...

I read a post that told how to re-mold the new WotC minis that had bent out of shape. Can anyone direct me to it or report how it's done...

1. It is isn't a scientific journal. 2. It's their content - they own it - so they can do whatever they please with it.

Why weren't you grappling and/or stunning? Ok, ok, they were giants. But in most situations you should be able to do both to great effect.

Are evil gods still needed? ABSOLUTELY! Especially in Dragonlance campaigns. But really, what difference is the question: are arch-fiends and super demons really necessary since there are evil gods that fill the same role...
