If the undead army reached its objectives in victory points (taking a bridge, reaching the church, etc) then the undead would swarm the PCs and they would get the "failed" xp bonus.If they were able to hold of the Undead and score their objecitves in Victories they would "win" xp bonus.I still did the "cutscene" for the final ending but then dropped a timer on the table and said decide! I made sure the NPCs were buffed to prevent any PCs from trying to be marters...The Negative Levels can be an issue ( I made it so that it would only happen if you tried to USE the sword not hold the sword).Overall, I just made the last arc event based... very fast paced and tried to be very epic. I made the undead very weak but a lot of em.</blockquote>
