[QUOTE="MortalPlague, post: 6409889, member: 62721"] Admittedly, that does sound rather awesome. I'm excited to hear about the gnolls when you get to it, though. A session I ran for my 11th level group saw them fight a band of bullywugs. Five 11th level PCs (and their enfranchised orc slave-turned-bodyguard-turned-friend) took on 30 bullywugs, 6 merrows, 6 giant frogs, 1 giant toad, and 2 carrion crawlers. I managed to bloody one PC. Otherwise it was a slaughter. Granted, the enemy came in waves. And the CR2 critters (merrows and carrion crawlers) [i]were[/i] a threat. It was a little skewed towards being too easy, but not so much that it was dull. This was a triumph... :D Exciting stuff! I hope the advancement goes well for you! I will say that while 5th edition doesn't [i]usually[/i] turn into wuxia, some classes go more that route than others (looking at you, monk). Also, I strongly recommend reading the spells your casters are using. I've noticed a few spells that, after coming up two or three times, had a slightly different effect than the player realized (or had a material cost they hadn't noticed). [/QUOTE]
