Hethas' Gambit: Game of Death discussion [rnd 5]

[Saepiroth]

I didn't like Cholestus starting just five feet from me, though! Even that would have been nothing if I had only gotten better initiative.

Yup. With all my eggs in one basket, so to speak, a blast from one of those Prismatics would have left me pretty much sodomized.

Also, in a bit of incedental humor, I only picked "Fort Hill" because of it's altitude advantage, and not for any tactical reason... though I did expect I'd be standing on someone's head. I actually planned to start 15 feet in the air but, because I'm a moron, I screwed up when I sent Seasong my prep round and ended up leering at Xiao Fung from ground level.

I noticed one small error, sent you an email seasong.

 

[seasong]

That will be fixed in your personalized results; everyone else will see it the same way it is written. But thanks for your honesty!

you can dismiss an anti magic shell? I didn't know that. Where is that in the rules? I thought it was one of those things you had to just wait out.

Antimagic Shell Duration: 10 minutes/level (D)

That (D) on the end is referenced in the spell duration section of the PHB, and essentially means, "dismissable at will".

Most spell casters are unaware that some of their spells are dismissable, so it's no surprise you weren't aware of this . For me, it makes a huge difference in some spells that I would otherwise be unwilling to use, like wall of force (which is also dismissable).

 

[Number47]

I wish I could dismiss that dang Hagbard a little easier.

 

[Jeremy]

Yup. The sorcerer in my party makes extensive use of wall of force to divide the battle field as he sees fit knowing he can bring them down at a moments notice. Unfortunately the cleric lacks that ability with Blade Barriers so often there is much waiting involved.

No damage listed for the arrow striking Unth Dirn?
