[QUOTE="cignus_pfaccari, post: 1282666, member: 14557"] Ours mostly center around trying not to die and trying to eliminate the enemy as fast as possible. For example, when running through one adventure from Dungeon (uh...one with big huge white dragon in it), we ran into the main fight with little warning. Party: Paladin-priest - paladin-weapon master (cohort) tiefling rogue-acrobat half-dragon werewolf ranger (NPC) Oppo: Half-dragon blademaster Barbarian berserker-type 2x simulacra of BBEG 3x big honking ice golems ogre fighter ettin werebear berserker rakshasa monk Enemy is arrayed in a line of ice golems, then barbarian, fighter, and monk, and then the berserker. Simulacra are arrayed far behind the line and to the right at a 90-degree angle. Blademaster is perched on the ceiling hiding in shadows. Round 1: Rogue moves in front of ice golems, and tosses dust of sneezing and choking. Rest of party starts in on ice golems. Werebear fumes, blademaster drops in and starts fighting the weapon master, and one of the simulacra dispels the dust. Round 2: Repeat. Round 3: Repeat. Ice golems go down and explode. Round 4: Rogue is out of dust and is now fighting the rakshasa. Paladin-priest realizes that the barbarian is a huge threat and mazes her with a miracle. Round 5+: Paladin-priest starts scything through remaining enemies one/round. Rogue and other party members try not to die in the meantime. The main lesson here is that by judicious use of the dust of sneezing & choking, we were able to take the fight in stages; otherwise, we surely would've been defeated and our Phat Lewtz added to the dragon's already impressive hoard. We were supposed to come in with another heavy combatant, but he didn't make it to that session. Otherwise, we try to make best use of our abilities. The rogue does his best to flank (when he's not fighting an undead, construct, plant, ooze, elemental, or fortified creature...or a half-elemental gelatinous nightcrawler in heavy barding), the paladin goes and hits things, the schmoozy-rogue points wands at people and occasionally cuts someone, and the wizard throws big bang spells, occasionally on the rogues (who will evade and don't care).
