I love that my group is all new to the game. We are all learning as we go. I added the critical hit and fumble decks to the game today. One character on a critical fumble killed himself!
We also added a 5 player to the table today. I thought i was going to have to increase the encounter difficulties, but so far, if anything i need to make them easier.
We are on the second level under the fishery in Otari. There was a cinder rat, it took out both fighters. I thought we were going to have a TPK, but the rogue and alchemist finished it off.
Three weeks until next session, i am thinking of getting another group together for a different campaign.
The cinder rat took out both fighters? How? But they lived right?
My guess would be the critical fumble deck.
The first hit the rat got a critical hit on the orc fighter and rolled quite a bit of damage. I did not use the critical hit deck on that one. He did not go down but was low.
After that it was good rolls on my part, bad rolls on theirs.
