Last night’s session beautifully showcased the power of the cleave ability, especially when it comes to fighters:

Holy Corvin-saves-the-day, Batman!

Nice carnage :slight_smile:

It was a bloodbath. Now they are off to track down the Hill Giant Chief (the old G1 module): let’s see how a party of level 5/6 characters deal with a bunch of giants :slight_smile:

Last session saw the first deaths of the game, PC ones that is: Zarkov and Halmary petrified by basilisk.

Ouch - bad way to go, bad way to go...

It’s their own fault for picking a fight :wink:

Proof that zombies can still be a valid monster when in a forsaken sinkhole of evil and with no clerics in tow :slight_smile:

Also: The more the merrier! :slight_smile:

Yay for Forsaken Sinkholes of Evil!

Last Monday’s notes: http://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/2013/03/against-the-giants-session-forty-eight/

Smee got blasted by a lightning bolt: rolling his Mortal Wounds next Monday. Looks like he will become Halmary’s henchman.

I still find it amusing that in 48 sessions no one has ever wanted to hire help or get some henchmen; they all hate the idea of sharing their XP :slight_smile:

More session notes:

Session 49: http://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/2013/03/against-the-giants-session-forty-nine/
Session 50: http://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/2013/03/against-the-giants-session-fifty/

And the party of level 5-7 characters have entered the old G1 module full of Hill Giants.

New session report: http://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/2013/03/against-the-giants-session-fifty-one/

Another play session: http://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/?p=2743

This time with multiple giants being slain by a party of level 5-6 characters.

Sounds like a series of really exciting sessions!

They’ve been tense, epic, and the players seem to have really enjoyed them.
