"Give me a head start and I'll scout it out so we know what we're dealing with." Banion requests. [Presumably no one objects to this.] Banion will attempt to sneak in unseen. Once he sees a bad guy, he will attempt to sneak back to the party unseen and report. He will not engage before...

I think 4e monster design will be more art than science, and I'm not sure you can reverse engineer art. There will probably be some default assumptions, such as "a typical AC for a level 26 leader is X." However, the designer might set the AC at X + or -5 depending on how hard he wants the...

"If you have some subtle ploy you wish to try, please proceed. Do we think our target is particularly close? I could have my psicrystal do a bit of scouting if that is so. It's small enough to be very difficult to spot when flying amongst the leaves of the forest canopy."

The trance is pretty deep, and simply screaming doesn't seem likely to penetrate it. Other things might prompt an additional save, but you've gotten as much benefit from "It's not real!" as you're going to get.

Round 3 Concludes Ranya sends another blast at Weapon, striking him for 6 damage. Ranya's Eldritch Blast (1d20+5=11, 2d6=6) The Deneith soldiers fire more arrows, which strike Arvan and several of the abberant marked soldiers. Arvan takes 1 damage. Arrows v. Brelach, Arvan and Silvanon...

"If the sending doesn't work, I guess we'll wind up playing catch-me-if-you-can with some elves. Not to my taste, but our mission is too important to be disuaded from. Do you think the elves were dominated in some way?" ooc: I believe Ironwolf's Sense motive check is +4 untrained.

"I've heard of Goblins riding some sort of wolf in combat," Banion comments from the shadows. "Those pairings are supposedly of the best goblin warriors and truly uncanny wolves." "I suppose the goblins and the orcs could be working together, and we allready know our enemy has orcs to do his...

Ironwolf turns away, prefering not to fight the elves. "What's the best route that excludes the Silverwood?" He asks of Rinaldo and the others. If the group attempts to use the speed of the phantom steeds to simply rush passed the elves, Ironwolf is ready to follow, but he will not suggest...

ooc: Wow, we have Jules? Maybe Tor can get some pom-poms in place of his spiked chain! ;) Oh well, I'm sure there will be plenty of stuff to hit for everyone.

Eh, keep yer new-fangled THAC0 out of my games, youngster!

ooc: Bumming a teleport and shaving ~50 weeks off the trip sounds good.

If the captain makes no further response, Anvuss will shrug and resume his duties. As he does so, he looks about to see if any other flying vessels are nearby.

Tor can move quickly if necessary, but has no spells higher than level 1, and can't really do much for the group as a whole.

Ironwolf is a bit impatient during the ritual summoning of the phantom steeds, wondering if it is really worth 1/2 hour of waiting in order to have a special mount. Once the group gets moving though, he's very pleased with the result. Wow, these things are fast!

Banion will sneak closer, so as to not appear rude. It doesn't occur to him to actually come out of hiding and say hello, but he stands quietly nearby.

ooc: Sounds good.

If you interpret ice axe as summoning a weapon, I wouldn't allow maximize or empower to effect the weapon damage of the summoned weapon. Similarly, you can maximize a summoning spell to get the maximum number of creatures when summoning from a lower level list, but it won't effect the damage...

Round 3 Continues Brelach fights defensively against the memory. Alysin begins casting a sleep spell. Arvan and Silvanon fight against the onrushing troops of the dragonmarked house. Ranya once again aims her blast at Weapon. [More once IC goes back up!]

Round 5 Continues The construct hits B3 for 13 damage, failing to drop it with one hit. Zaeryl quickly drops B3 with his crystal shard, allowing the construct to scuttle between Iggy and the remaining lizardman. The final lizardman is confused, but centers its hate upon Iggy, the last person...

Tor looks around the assembled group, trying to decide how best he can help by using his mount spell. Talbin is allready mounted, albeit only on a mule. The others do not seem to be, and Tor is faster on his feet than any of the others. In fact, he could carry a heavier load and still keep up...
