[QUOTE="FrankinLondon, post: 1846939, member: 25382"] Hmmm, I'd better explain. My group and I play only 4 times a year - for 3 days solid each time. A group of 8 of us have been meeting up like this since we left college over 20 years ago. We take it in turns to host and DM. We have several parties on the go (several more retired), the highest of which we call "Lost In The Dark" who basically have run through the WoTC Adventure Path - culminating in BoBS next week. Lost in the Dark consists of 18th Cleric 12th/6th Cleric/Fighter ** 17th Barbarian (that's me!!) 17th Sorcerer ** 17th Cleric ** 17th Ranger ** 15th/1st/1st Rogue/Wizard/Fighter 14th/3rd Fighter/Rogue ** Two of the eight can't make the next weekend because they are working abroad. I am DM'ing which leaves the 5 characters to do BoBS. I know that BoBS was written for 4 characters, but in converting to 3.5, the demons in the module have got a lot rougher (they were wimps beforehand) so I think it balances out. I bother with Shapechange because it's a rule and we tend not to houserule things. Even when we do, we like to test the original rules first AND require a majority vote (hard sometimes as we keep spawning new options). The challenge at the moment is to make the dungeon competitive for all of the party including the Pitfiend. Frank [/QUOTE]
