[QUOTE="Satyrn, post: 7434910, member: 6801204"] But seriously, My first guess would work on the assumption that the fighter takes out 2 spies each turn, and each spy deals an average of 1 point of damage each turn it remains in the fight. I'd need to know how many hp the fighter has (including damage mitigation and healing) and I'd use those three variables to figure out how many spies it would take, working in reverse from the round the fighter croaks. In the last round, he suffers 1 damage from the last remaining spy. In R-1 (1 round before the last) there are still 3 spies standing, so he suffers 3 damage. R-2 sees him taking 5 damage R-3 is 7 damage, etc. I'd keep tallying that until the collective damage equals the fighter's hp. If he simply has 15 hp for 1st level and 11 hp per level (20 Con, average hit die) and no healing or damage mitigation, that'd be 224. And that'd work out to 29 spies. That's my first guess. It's gonna be wrong. [/QUOTE]
