[QUOTE="aco175, post: 7965760, member: 27385"] I typically roll a single d20 when the bad guys are below half their numbers. There may be a lot of variables, but I tend to think on if they would flee and how soon. I could have skeletons that would never flee since they are basically mindless and animals such as bears which may flee sooner if they are just looking for a quick meal. If the bear is with young and one of them die, then maybe the mother stays longer. I tend to make the encounter with orcs and an ogre run where if the ogre dies or the orc leader and half the orcs die, then I roll and if I roll low, they try to flee. I end up just giving a number to the roll and not a save or anything. If I roll low, they all try to flee, but when I roll like a 10 then I just have one or two try to run or begin to pull back.
