Random Funny s**t from Jake's All-Marine Campaign

[G^X]

So last night we had two funny occurrences in D and D
1. So we are in this Cave and there are like these wear-Boars in there right.. so as usual our party splits up. the rouge sneaks off into the distance and the two fighters and monk stick together. So the group of 3 makes it to this giant room with this huge statue and we fight some wear-boars... mean while the rouge finds a human and gets spotted so he halls butt down the hallway we went down when he gets there he rounds the corner and hides... the human gets to the room just in time to see Brandon's fighter finishing his great-sword Coup De Grace and he goes
"what the hell are you doing here?"-random human
"what the hell are you doing here?"- Brandon
"I live here!"- random human
"Well this is your eviction notice!" - Brandon
and just as he finishes saying that the rouge sneak attacks with a locking garrot... dude falls to the ground and is chokeing and our party watches him sufficate and then we laugh our butts off for about ten minutes both in game and out of game

So later on we go into this room and there are 2 ten foot high pillars that are 10 foot by ten foot squares. with some distance between them. in the far back of the room theres a statue to our horror we find out that this statue is actually a CR 10ish stone golem. being that our party is maybe able to take down a cr5 if we are lucky I'm pretty sure we are all gonna die.. then an idea hits me. I tell every one to run to the sides of the room... then I jump up and down and taunt the golem. seeing as that i can run faster than it I'm not worried. So I run back to a earlier area of the cave where my fighter had conveniently found a pit fall trap that the rouge missed. So i jump the gap and the golem falls in the hole. and eventually the party finds a object in the room that they break and it shuts down the golem.
I found out after the battle that the DM had changed the stats on the golem and made it slower with less dmg reduction expecting us to Kite it. our out of game knowledge made us ignore this because no of us have magic ranged weapons and we knew golems have Dmg Reduction 10 adimantite

Jake, you guys should seriously start up a Modern D20 campaign.

It somehow seems far more applicable to your being in the Marines because of the cool missions you can set up for things.

Military campaign ftw!


That's what we're doing back here btw.

yeah but if we run a modern d20 campaign everyone is just gonna be a analyst because there the most powerful in real life... and all we will do in campaign is sit in our respective offices and go out drinking after work....
