[QUOTE="Kobold Avenger, post: 6294144, member: 779"] I'm curious how things like vehicles and siege weapons would work in things like this. Of course I know that vehicles are probably another whole section of the rules... There's definitely a question of how area spells do affect stands. If it's damage as normal with no bonus amount like 3e's swarm rules. I guess it's assumed that while a caster may use fireball once in those 10 personal combat rounds (potentially targeting 4 stands), they're using combat cantrips and seeking cover in the other 9 rounds. One thing I'm picturing is my idea mass combat in a Steampunk campaign with units of riflemen, grenadiers, elven sharpshooters, wolf dragoons and mechanized steam knights, supported by artillery (both cannons and gatling guns), airships, wyvern cavalry, griffin-mounted bombers, ogres with handcannons and gelatinous assault cubes vs. an Illithid-commanded army of foulspawn hordes, grimlock shocktroops, beholders and other aberrant terrors.
