[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 339132, member: 2829"] Not my problem. Then make an assertion that is backed by the rules. I answered your questions. You just don't like my answers because it means you can't do whatever you want. This is...what?...the third time for me to answer this question? The shrunken object doesn't break because the Shrink Item spells uses the impact as a trigger to return the shrunken item to it's original size. The initial impact won't do a damn thing to the item except for trigger it's size increase. A secondary impact, however, could break it. I have answer that question multiple times. Asking me that same question over and over and over again will not eventually illicit a response that you will be happy with. I fail to see the relevance. A house rule is a house rule. If you wanna discuss house rules, take it to the house rules thread. You seem to be having difficulty understanding that. Right. Know why? Cause it is. Good. So what's the problem? Why don't you get it? Sorry. That doesn't apply to alchemist's fire. A house rule none the less. Take it somewhere else. Sure thing. Not by the rules. I would agree that the large jar would indeed cause more damage, simply because it's bigger, heavier, stronger, etc, but the damage caused by the alchemist's fire doesn't increase. It's a house rule. Show me in the rules where it states that, and do so without the addition of any of your house rules. It impacts a surface doesn't it? That's all the spell needs. It doesn't matter. The spell states that if the object hits a solid surface, it is returned to original size. The item won't break and [b]then[/b] return to full size. The spell doesn't work that way. Do you have a point here? I missed it. Your "trick" doesn't work because the rules simply don't allow it. Your "trick" is back by house rules, not rules. I'm making up rules? LOL ROTFLMAO :D Oh, that's rich!!!!!! :D ROTFLMAO Exactly what rule did I make up? [/QUOTE]
