bluegargantuaHi,
The Ancient Gargantuan Blue Dragon?
Didn't quite last a full 3 rounds.
Lots of no-save, no SR orbs, maxed out, doubled, extended multi-round acid attacks and a critical ice burst crossbow shot, a couple of huge elementals and a dwarven berserker who took something like 250HP of damage before going down...just heinous.
The blue couldn't catch a breather to heal himself and go back to the fight. He took out 9 guys, but it was all over by the second round.
Next time: 12 12th level fighters. We'll have to run it a few times to find the optimum mix.
[EDIT: CRAP! My original cunning plan to defeat them was discarded after I said, "meh, the spells don't work that way". But they DO! They DO work that way and I totally could've clobbered them. Well...maybe not, those barbarians were pretty fierce, but still. Ah man. There'll have to be a re-match someday.]
