[QUOTE="Grogg of the North, post: 5898040, member: 6682960"] Salvation is at hand! Here's what you do. Throw that token as hard as you can above the dragon's head and just as it reaches its apex, have someone else shout the command word to activate it. **Warning Math Approximations and Fuzzy Rule Interpretation to Follow** The token activates and springs into being and falls. The tree has a five foot diameter trunk and is 60 feet tall. We'll ignore the canopy because it makes the math easier and we can model the tree as a cylinder. Assuming a density of 45 lbm/cft we get a mass of 53,014 lbm. Which is a weight of 53,014 lbf, assuming an Earth like gravity and a little bit of hand waving. (Oh how my physics professors would weep if they saw that.) Now if we look at Table 4-7 in complete warrior we can figure out how much damage it would do. 5d6 + 1d6/200 lbs above 400 lbs. 268d6 damage or 938 on average. Even if you allow a reflex for half damage, its still 469 damage. You should clearly roll it out and see if you can get 1,000 damage. Now if your GM is generous and realizes how screwed you are, this may just work. Though I would be afraid to try it twice or you may find every enemy throwing feather tokens at you. ;) [/QUOTE]
