The Latest Plan

From this month's Emirikol game

Me: "Let me see if I have this: you are strapping the necklace of fireballs globe to the end of the ballista bolt, then casing keen edge on the bolt, then having the sorcerer cast true strike before firing it at the cloud giant's head?"

Players: "With surprise!"

Me: "Right, with surprise, he'll lose his dex bonus to AC there. And if this doesn't kill him?"

Players:  "We open fire with the rifle." "Once he's inside 30' of course, so I can add the d6 for my surprise strike." "Then we pyrotechnics the lingering flames from the fireball to blind him. Followed by a lightning bolt of course." 

Me: "Well, the lightning bolt went without saying."

Good to see they're getting creative.
