[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8306629, member: 57383"] Yup, that makes more sense. Although I wouldn't have it fume indefinitely but just remain explosive for "a few days or so" as indicated above. Yes I'm aware that's how explosions usually work in D&D, I just don't care for the unrealism! Hold on, you reckon figuring out the volume of a circumstance-dependent area made up of 5 ft. cubes is easier to work out compared to a spread or burst with a radius proportional to the square root of the number of morsels? How does that make sense? In normal circumstances it'd be a hemisphere (volume = 2/3πR³), which if anything is more complicated to figure out. Also, 125 cubic feet per morsel would result in way too small explosions - the presumably maxed out 20d6 explosion of a 20 HD caprine would be 2,500 cubic feet, which matches a hemispherical radius of 10.6 feet! As indicated above, I'm concerned about a scores of caprines all making killer cheese and then piling the resulting several hundred morsels together for one jumbo bang. Maybe we should just start doing rough drafts so we have some details to actually argue about. [/QUOTE]
