[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 5194927, member: 8461"] Our group had two mules, and a wagon that they pulled. We even bought some 10-foot poles and a tent, lashing them together to make it a covered wagon. We all rode in the back of it, with our gear stored in barrels; I insisted on carrying mine, however. This setup apparently displeased our DM, since in the very same game session where we did all this, he had the rogue driving the wagon make a check while driving it over a hill. Not a mountain, not a cliff face. A frickin' hill. Since the rogue had no ranks in Handle Animal, and rolled a natural 9 on his check, the wagon went tumbling down the hillside, killing our poor mules, smashing the wagon and all of our gear inside it, and injuring most of our party - I, of course, bailed as soon as it started to teeter, saving myself and my equipment; everyone else [s]stupidly[/s] valiantly tried to help keep the wagon from tipping. Needless to say, we weren't the most inspirational of heroes that day. [/QUOTE]
