Winding down towards bed after drive home/late night necessity shopping/getting stuff in order for long day tomorrow. So here's the short review of Saturday's game;
Most badass roll-playing moment; Sam rolled a natural 20 on a Scorching Ray and then got lucky on damage. The result was a big 60 points of damage to this lamia villainess who only had, like, 145 hit points total.
Most badass role-playing moment; I thought I won badass awards this time around. We decided to sow chaos at the captured fortress to make sure the ogres were focused on anywhere other than the waterfall by the secret passage. We did this by having the paladin yell challenges at the ogres to draw them away from the gate - then use a potion of firebreathing to further damage them and make sure they were wandering through the woods huntin' hobbit - then dropping an invisibility on the paladin (nobody said Lawful Good halflings stopped fighting like halflings). This meant that Cadell got to stand in front of four charging, angry ogres, calmly breathing fire on three of them before turning tail - while the invisible flying sorceress backing him up set fire to the barracks. But wait, there's more...
... one of the ogre chieftains turned out to have several levels in ranger, a favored enemy of humans, and a humanbane "ogre hook." Rather than let himself be cornered in the room, he took a few AoOs, bull rushed the druid into a wall, and dropped the ranger - who'd been hanging back as archery support - to -5 hp with two lucky hits. Cadell's response was to smite the chieftain, but didn't get any attacks in - instead, the paladin dragged the ranger out of immediate range, used his now AC 30 body to block any incoming attacks, and used lay on hands to get the ranger back up to 15 hp. Fortunately a few attacks got rid of the chieftain before he could pummel a paladin.
Funniest moment; after defeating the lamia, Jummi filking "I'm gonna go/buy some cigarettes!" to the tune of the "Final Fantasy" end of fight game. I can't remember the rest of the song. It was all freakin' brilliant.
