[QUOTE="Lord Zardoz, post: 3045553, member: 704"] [b]Rat Bastard Idea: Poisoned Caltrops[/b] Now there is an idea that does not need a whole lot of elaboration. Depending on how well dispersed the Caltrops are, you can probably get some good results with this. At a +0 attack roll, and at a further +2 to player AC if they are wearing footwear, Caltrops will not score hits often. Your going to be fishing for 20's to get this to work. But over a wide enough area, and assuming 1 attack roll per 5 foot square entered, it can probably have a decent effect. But the upshot is that the caltrops will probably get you alot of mileage from the poison, if you can force the players to remain confined within a given area. And as a secondary note: Try to justify the use of Fatigued or Exhausted penalties. If you keep the pressure up long enough, it should not be a stretch, if you can force the characters to not sleep for one night, or after a particularly long battle. Fatigued: -2 to Str and Dex Exhauseted: -6 to Str and Dex END COMMUNICATION [/QUOTE]
