[QUOTE="klofft, post: 3579694, member: 40326"] The goblin didn't get away. The black dragon did. The bridge was tough on them, but a) they had plenty of time to buff, which definitely saved a couple of them, and b) I made a couple tactical errors there too (breathed when I should have full attacked once and flew back to the healing potion stash about 1 round too late). Ulwai and her troops in the lair were a serious fight for them; ultimately they persevered, though Ulwai got away. The party has 3 clerics and a lot of potions, so if an encounter doesn't kill them, they can reasonably heal back to close to full after many combats. They did not rest between Ulwai and the Ghostlord either. They did manage to avoid the bonedrinker combat so far, which would have changed the way the GL encounter went. I'm pretty happy that my experience has generated so much reflection and has been a help to others. Since the game, I've had reason to think that the party will probably not be able to destroy the phylactery before the GL returns (maybe, but they really have very little with which to destroy it aside from arcane magic, and that's a long road). And I'm re-doing the GL's spell list for a possible round 2 and have decided that the ghost dire lion and other six bonedrinkers that were "in process" are now active. We'll see what happens.
