[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7826288, member: 12731"] Feel free to then actually engage with the Capn, and ask him directly about passages you want to know more about, before dismissing his findings out of hand, eh? And what's with the "hypotheticals"? It was an example. Yes, I distilled it down, stripping out irrelevant cruft (and also: can't remember the real numbers and sequences. But I can tell you this: the real heroes were walking down the stairs into Madame Mvashti's cellar). But it was born out of our actual experience playing the game (and trying to grok the rules). Did we follow the rules 100%? Maybe, maybe not. Hard to tell when nobody actually discusses the example and the rules that lie behind it, instead preferring to waste time and effort on refusing to believe the example is real... o_O On the other hand, maybe that's how the game gets recommendations for being easy... That nobody actually believes it might not be (even though we're talking about 600+ pages written with a programmatic exactness, which I imagine will come as a brutal shock to someone accustomed to 5E's natural language)!
