[QUOTE="Andrew Moreton, post: 7525146, member: 6920268"] Manuel's player has been working on some estimates about Borne Honestly a 500' tall artifact adamantine golem is more than most D&D societies ever achieve, the ob should probably just stop now. Ballparking some math: Adamatine weighs 1000lb per cubic foot (steel is ~490lb per cubic foot) and adamatine is about twice the weight) 1lb of Adamantine is 500gp A 6ft man has about 2.5 cubic toot of volume Bourne is 500ft or 83x larger going with the cube rule of increase gives him a volume of about 1.4 million cubic foot. Assuming about 25% of that is adamantine, and the rest is engineering space or lighter components, bourne is 178,683 tons and has 1.7 *10^11 gp or 0.17 trillion gp of adamantine. Finding a 45ft radius adamantine sphere somewhere (presumably some god lost a bowling ball) would be the easiest way of getting hold of this in a world without planar travel. Although I'm suspecting the OB are running the Drow (possibly via the boy scouts of america) and have been taxing a millennia worth of Adamatine mining for this. Either way something to aspire to for any 20th level wizard with downtime. Also if we survive we should mine cauldron hill for their adamantine stock piles, they probable have a few million there in spare parts and us gun bunnies need our adamantine bullet :) [/QUOTE]
