[QUOTE="Nail, post: 2247645, member: 224"] Facts:[list][*]PCs defeated an army of 90 orcs and 12 worgs. [*]The PCs used a fortified dwarven outpost.[/list] Asumptions by Me:[list][*]DM provided ideal setting..that is, it was not the PC's cleverness and planning that led to the battle being at the outpost. [*]The orcs could not get to the PCs in any way other than crossing the bridge. [*]The orcs could not attack the PCs in any way until they crossed the bridge. [*]There was no other signifiant danger immediately before, during, or immediately after the battle. [*]The orcs didn't try to "wait the PCs out" or attack in waves over long periods. [*]The orcs were all CR 1/2, and the Worgs were all CR 2.[/list] These assumptions are important to verifiy, BTW. Thanks. If they are true, then I'd give them 25% of the total for 90 orcs and 12 worgs. For three 4th level PCs, that XP is 862 each. [/QUOTE]
