This has the benefit of easy logistics and less characters to run. Might not be as fun as:2: We split the party (or at least some of it,) into two groups and run two fights, one with the dracolich, and one with the cultists. Everyone who wants one can have a troll to play on top of their character. The boss-troll would want to go in the group going after the Dracolich anyway, and it might be hard to convince him to go for option 1. We could still do it, and he could cram his way down the 'back' entrance with the party, but then the Trolls would be semi-leaderless and less trustworthy, unless a PC or two goes with them. This is obviously much more complicated and will take longer to run, but it could be fun. We could run it even IF we want to keep the whole party together and just use trolls, but I've got less excitement for that.As you've probably been able to tell, I have little-to-no aversion to logistically complicated encounters. It's up to you. What do you think?</blockquote>
