Also I had this awesome boss fight in my tabletop last game. Or it was supposed to be. It was a 2x boss, with a Solo (big boss) dragon that could resummon the Elite (sub-boss) enemy at full health on a 6 on a 1d6.
13 rounds. 13 chances to roll a 6. Not. A. Single. 6.
And the thing is, why would the big boss not resummon the elite boss first chance it got? I'd take a hit or two if it meant I could call in backup over and over.
@NexTerren If it helps I had a session last night too...they snuck into an estate that belongs to this demon cultist noble...there were 10 guards in all but they rolled so well the guards we basically completely unaware...so they walked into the barracks/dorm where the guards were sitting unarmed/armored...
The cleric dropped a flame strike and the sorceress dropped a fireball. Everyone died...
Then the warlock cast cone of cold to put out the fire. They cast invisibility on themselves and walked out the front door through the crowd that had started gathering on the streets because of the fire and explosions...
If it was a Shadowrun game, I'd be proud of them as the GM. As is, that's hilarious. How many hours of content did they blow through with just some luck?
They got some secret documents, some warlock ritual texts, and then for basically no reason stole a nice rug, and quill and inkwell set, two casks of wine and several sides of smoked pork.
@NexTerren at least 2 hours given combat and the complications that would have come from drawing attention to the house.
They were strait up bi-polar/multiple personality though. The plan was to go in all sneaky like and not leave a trace, so they went in flying invisibly and made it into the place like freaking super-ninjas...they hit the office found the documents. Then the dwarf decided he wanted the rug under the desk in the office.
It's like in Doom (2016), the Summoner demon can summon in other demons. If I think one of those monsters is in the area it is target number one, because if you don't take it out in the first minute of the fight you'll be overrun by hoards of lesser demons. Having the resurrection of the elite depending on RNG is kinda silly, and probably should have been an automatic thing, so that the players would have to focus on the dragon and ignore the elite until after the dragon was dead.
So I made him roll a compound check with athletics and stealth and somehow he nailed it...
To be fair to the warlock who is the defacto rogue, I made up the super fancy inkwell/quill set in one of the very first sessions when they were level 1 or 2 as bait to make a bad choice and steal something, making their entry noticeable and he managed to restrain himself twice.
This was actually the third B&E on this house for the party.
Please tell me it was like that magic act where they pull the table cloth out from under the dishes without spilling anything, except it was out from under the entire desk
What limitations can I place on technology to prevent corporations from growing their own workforce?
Artificial wombs have become a luxury in society, allowing them to forgo the burden of carrying a child for nine months. These machines are housed in specially built facilities, where they can be...
