[QUOTE="Narfellus, post: 2103006, member: 11040"] It sounds like a really fun scenario, from both the players and DM's point of view. They are both tactically weighed against defeating the other, which for me has always been the very best fights, when the PC's have to outthink/strategize me. This scenario could be really easy or really hard, for many of the reasons mentioned above. Trap-door trolls, hidden bear-pits, flaming trebuchets...a DM could unintenionally make it too hard just by trying to cover all the bases. On the other hand, PC's with access to magic tricks or the enemy's Achille's Heel (a burst dam for example) could make the encounter easier than expected. [/QUOTE]
