[QUOTE="Guilberwood, post: 3042538, member: 15692"] Hi guys, My Dragonlance group is going to pass trough one of the deadliest areas of the world, and it’s filled with hobgoblins. When I told them that it was a very dangerous place, and that few came back alive, they surely felt they were safe, after all, “they’re only hobgoblins, what can they do against a 12th level party”… It’s time for En World to prove them wrong! And there’s no one better to do it…Fellow rat bastards, I’m counting on you! They party consist of a fighter/ranger/tempest with two axes, a cleric/knight of Solamnia, a fighter/druid and a Monk/Sacred fist. I should also mention that even though they are 12th level, they are not as powerful as the usual 12 level party. They have almost no access to arcane magic, very few magic items (one ore two, each), and none of them has an optimized character. They’re going to a valley that runs two mountain chains, and the Hobgoblins keep a constant watch on those who dwell in the valley, looking for caravans to pillage or enemies to kill. The hobgoblins have a lot of time to prepare, as the party will be easy to spot from a great distance. That’s where I need your help! Anything goes! I was thinking of some traps or related things, and some heavy melee, to keep my players alive but thinking “this REALLY IS one of the most dangerous places of Krynn” I had an idea for some mounted hobgoblins, and I’m not sure which animal will they ride. I wanna get away from the horse/wolf/boar stereotype, and was thinking of something like hyenas or even lions, what do you guys think? I know I’ll have to give this hobgoblins some classes, and suggestions are welcome in this area too! Anyway, I guess this is it. If you guys have any doubts I’ll be happy to answer. Thanks in advance for your help! Guilberwood [/QUOTE]
