[QUOTE="scipio, post: 2115160, member: 16382"] The PCs are getting ready to head towards the climactic battle of the campaign. The setting is a large ancient persia-styled city (big step-pyramid palace, lots of crowded streets and alleyways) sitting on an island in the middle of a huge lake. They spent some time here in peaceful situations, but now the BBEG has summoned forth an army of fiery denizens to destroy this place. There are 6 PCs, 11th level. The enemies so far consist of Efreeti, Fire elementals, conflaguration oozes, etc. There will be a flaming, swirling vortex over the city that rains fire (out of which will spring elementals). The civilian collateral will likely be significant, but the group should be able to find some capable allies. I've got the encounter with the BBEG pretty well layed out, but was wondering what challenges you guys would suggest for getting through the city, and what tricks smart PCs would try in this situation (aside from the obvious proc fire, resist fire, which I plan to provide anyway). Some things I've though of are: fire-storm which leads to a battle with elementals; an ooze comes rolling down an alley consuming the populace as it goes; and fire bats! Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
