[QUOTE="Motorskills, post: 7005670, member: 15921"] My party will shortly be heading to Noanar's Hold, to drop off the crated harnesses from Triboar, one of the 'reward missions' from that town, they have several of these missions to do on their way to Citadel Fellbar and then onto Duke Zalto's crib. Now that's an interesting place, an exclusive hunting lodge on the edge of the Big Damn Forest. The owners have become undead, but that doesn't stop them from continuing to hunt, long pig being a particular favourite target. Now th party, 7 x L7 characters, will roflstomp five basic wights. So I've devised a souped-up challenge for them. Let me know what you think, and whether this is too dangerous. All the baddies retain wight abilities and vulnerabilities. But they have also retained their combat prowess from when they were alive, including hit points. Basically full on fighters, with undead flavouring. They will all be dressed in distressed (thematic) platemail or something, equivalent AC17, shield on top if necessary. The boss will have some magic items, probably sword, shield and armour, plus something weird and fun that is on the players' magic item wish list. My initial thinking is: 1 x EK 12 1 x Champ 7 2 x BM 6 (each with different combat techniques) 1 x Champ 5 That means the party outnumbers the baddies 7 to 5, but I'm thinking these guys will be no slouches. I want it to be a tough, but not lethal challenge. (Part of the exercise is to train myself and the other players on what the Fighter Class can actually do, since we don't have one in the group). Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
