D&D 5E Have you thrown 88 opponents at your party?

[Son of the Serpent]

time for a nitpick...

Budd: You're telling me she cut through eighty-eight bodyguards before she got to O-Ren?
Bill: Nah, there weren't really eighty-eight of them. They just called themselves "The Crazy 88."
Budd: How come?
Bill: I don't know. I guess they thought it sounded cool.

Is that an actual quote from the movie? I cant remember. It sounds like a conversation they'd have though.

 

[was]

In 3.5, I once threw an army of 300 low-level skeletons, plus a necromancer, at a group of six 8th-9th level characters. The previous session was intrigue-heavy and I wanted to let the players blow off some steam by annihilating the horde of undead. They had a good time flexing their muscles a bit.
