Message: <blockquote data-quote="Psychotic Jim" data-source="post: 2047965" data-attributes="member: 547">It seems like your party is fighter heavy. A swarm (especially Diminutive size because they are immune to weapon damage) is paticularly bad news for fighters, unless the druid thought to prepare Gust of Wind  or a similar spell, or if they have invested in alchemists fires. However, sicking a swarm on them might totally make your fighters powerless and annoy your players.  Some locust swarms or centipede swarms might do the trick.  How dependent are they on their mounts? I have found creatures with area of affect abilities are particularly damaging to people who depend on mounts (especially with Will saves- like Fear Aura for example).  A few meenlocks (from MM2) might work (3 for EL 6, 4 for EL 7) would be nasty. Each has a seperate fear aura that could cause the charging animals to go catatonic (poor Will saves) leaving the druid (and possibly the raging barbarian) to duke it out with the meenlocks, The creatures are weak physically, but have some nasty abilities (Dimension Door for mobility, Rend Mind to deplete Wisdom, and a paralysis with their claw attack). It also looks like (with the possible exception of the the rogue and the druid with lightning) that your party is weak on ranged attacks. The flying invisible wizard sugguested earlier is a good idea.  A small strike force of dragons of the younger types (such as wyrmingls or very young) strafing the area with breath weapons might work. A young blue dragon (EL 6) might be exceptionally tough since it is immune to lightning (although the druid could still sick her summoned creatures on it).</blockquote>
