((Sen and Barti get freedom. Thats the potential gain.))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((Commercial gain: minimal.))

[Empiricist]

((Albrecht should remove the entire wall around the runes and use them as self-repairing bucklers ))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((btw, did we ever get any exp for the somalian pirate base?))

((no, since it consisted of us dropping a bomb on a building and then running like small children.))

[Akroma]

((you mean we skipped tons of combat with proper planning and a plan, and are punished for it? Meeeeeeeeeeeeh))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((Well, that would essentially be experience for free....))

[Empiricist]

((Just for future reference, do plot events still give out EXP if resolved via pre-emptive drink spiking?))

[Akroma]

((Not for free. For finding a solution to the task ahead that is not combat. Why would we fight against 50-ish dudes if we can kill our target in a less risky way?))

((Not for free. For finding a solution to the task ahead that is not combat. Why would we fight against 50-ish dudes if we can kill our target in a less risky way?))

((That's pretty damn boring and not every single problem can be solved by 'nuke it'.))

[Akroma]

((but for this one it was the perfect opportunity))

((That's pretty damn boring and not every single problem can be solved by 'nuke it'.))

((Hence why dirt bombs, drink spiking and false-flag operations exist. For those other cases, or where you want a bit more excitement ))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((but for this one it was the perfect opportunity))

((Yeah, but RPG logic dictates you get experience for fighting 'properly', not what is essentially throwing a bomb at something. Not GMing this anymore, so if it's that much of an issue, go pester Smurf. ))

[wolfchild]

((Actually I gotta paraphrase something from the 3.5 dungeon masters guide here ...

(Experience is rewarded for overcoming the obstacle, for example if the objective is to loot a vault, sneaking past the guards counts as defeating them and you are awarded experience) if you want I can find the exact quote but it's been a bit since i read it))


((Also did we get experience for New your the 1st time round?))

[Empiricist]

((but for this one it was the perfect opportunity))

((Yeah, but RPG logic dictates you get experience for fighting 'properly', not what is essentially throwing a bomb at something. Not GMing this anymore, so if it's that much of an issue, go pester Smurf. ))

((People generally don't die instantly unless their brain is destroyed, so you could have quickly rushed in just after the bomb detonated and started "proper" combat against the crippled, mortally wounded enemies to qualify for the exp ))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((What 'experience' would you get from that? By that logic surgeons who accidentally kill their patients and doctors who practice euthanasia should be able to beat gods 1v1 ))
