[QUOTE="Dragonblade, post: 5233666, member: 2804"] That's cool! I like them throwing the coins to the crowd. Nice touch! I had a slightly different approach when I ran it. I ran under the assumption that the coins weren't really coins per se, but rather big heavy ceramic disks. Sort of like the big heavy 45 pound wheels that weightlifters would use in a gym. Any player holding a coin couldn't do anything else unless they dropped it first since it took both hands to carry it. That also made it so they couldn't carry more than one at a time. Except for the thri-kreen who had 4 limbs. I ruled he could carry 2, but it still took two minor actions to pick up two coins. I also positioned the coin pile slightly closer to the elves coffer so they could pick up a coin as a minor, make it to their coffer with their move 7 in one move action, drop the coin in their coffer as a free, and then still have a move action left to get back to the coin pile again ready to pick up another coin when their turn came around again. Since the elves didn't really have the ability to inflict status affects on the PCs but the PCs could inflict a lot on them, I figured this would make it more fair. And it turned out that I made a smart choice. The sleep spell really took me by surprise and gave the PCs an almost insurmountable lead. [/QUOTE]
