Cleaning House

Friday night we played some Pathfinder, carrying out the planned assault against the dark elf fortress.

The party was almost wiped out by a monster getting updated to Pathfinder from 3.5, but the GM was nice enough not to give it its new spell like abilities or remove the damage it wouldn't have taken in the previous encounter if it had been upgraded then. Still, a non-undead incorporeal creature with DR 10, resistance to all elements it isn't immune to, and a pretty high spell resistance to make magic missiles iffy is really really nasty. Pathfinder incorporeality halves damage instead of giving a miss chance, which effectively doubles all its damage resistance.

I hate it when a plan comes together...

Saturday afternoon I played Pathfinder with the other group. The party spent a ridiculous amount of time planning how to carry out a kidnapping plot without having to fight or risk anything, and then were disappointed when it actually worked.

...so for next time, they're going to assault an entire army of gnolls. I'm pretty sure this will, in fact, involve some fighting.
