Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sorrock" data-source="post: 5513102" data-attributes="member: 6673707">About 2 months ago myself and few other friends started up a Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 group.  We've had prior experience with 4th edition and some(very little really) with 3.5.  I volunteered to Dungeon master for the campaign and everything has been running oddly but alright for the few weeks its been running and the party has progressed to level 3.  Now for the part I'm having trouble with.  One of the player characters has been playing a dread necromancer throughout the campaign, as far as I see hes been min-maxing his build as much as he can towards resurecting undead minions and using them as his fighting style.  The unsettling thing is that he claims he can have red dragons following him and doing his will later on in the campaign and that he can use hordes of zombies to fight the encounters for him.   So far hes been able to control a few zombies through rebuke which have been a giant pain for me, as he sends them into rooms first, activating traps and so on.  He has also kitted them out with heavy Armour to make them into walking tanks (factoring in the terrible minuses to attack) that he just uses to wall himself off from encounters, where the entire party hides behind them.  Something about everything he does seems game breaking and now he wants to use the 'book of vile darkness's' sacrificial rules to become more powerfull. It may be due to inexperiance that I am having such difficutly comprehending how much more powerfull he is then the rest of the group, or perhaps he is in fact exploiting rules I havn't noticed.Any advise on what I should do would be great! Thanks for reading!P.S. I havn't set any restrictions on rule books, purely because its an evil/monster campaign. (probibly not my best idea)</blockquote>
