But this "sail" idea doesn't seem practical, for three reasons:1) Thunderwave is pretty destructive - at least 7-8 damage per blast.  A cloth and wood sail only has enough HP to survive 2-3 blasts.2) The disc has enough power to lift 250 lbs at minimum, potentially as much as a ton.  That's probably enough power that the mast would snap before the disc got pushed.2) The important point: You can use a move action to move the disc up to your speed (5-7 squares).  With Thunderwave, you're spending a standard action to push it [Wis mod] squares.  Unless you have a godly Wisdom, this isn't a good trade-off.</blockquote>
