(as the big "HUH?  WTF was THAT about?" took place.  The game is over, so it doesn't matter.  I use the MM frequently for monster summoning, so I have it handy.My point was that we are a low magic 4th level party, and when the DM mentioned it was "only a juvenile" black dragon (as if we could kill it) I got more than a bit curious.Climax of the module, fine - I understand, but we shouldn't have been there at 4th level IMO.  Especially when only one of us has a weapon with magic abilities at range (that can ramp up damage on such a creature).I do understand that not every fight is supposed to be winnable, as I have been playing this game for quite a while (and that's en entirely different discussion anyway), but we felt this was something with which we really didn't have much of a chance.  Had the dragon been able to breathe again before we got away, at least two party members would have died. (and we weren't even trying to fight the blasted thing - all we were trying to do was run with no hesitation)I actually did not know the title of the module in question. If it is a 3.0 adventure then the dragon is underrated, adding ambush and the fact that we are under-equipped magically and by level, and I have my answer.Thanks for all the help,-A</blockquote>
