[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 5542890, member: 6669384"] The four biggest problems I see with the Bag of Devouring trick are: 1) You'd need complete surprise (not just a Flank) to pop it over someone, meaning it would have to be pretty much out of combat. 2) You'd need a Bag of Devouring, which can't be created and has no market price. 3) It only has a +6 on its Grapple, so it's not exactly an overpowering trick. 4) Presuming it works, the enemy is devoured and gone, including all their gear (pronounced "Tree-sure") Ultimately, what you seem to be looking for is a "Zap, you're dead, no Save" type of attack, and people who try to introduce such things into a game often find themselves killed by exactly such an attack. Oddly, while the various magical bags have internal dimensions defined, there isn't any listing for external size. Your Bag of Devouring might be the size of a dice bag, too small to slip over someone's head. [/QUOTE]
