Greetings
I would like everybodies thoughts/suggestions on this issue.
The PCs are heading to a key point in a story (a mountain town
location) They come to a wooden bridge crossing a ravine. It looks old
and dangerous. The story requires them to cross, but be made well aware
of its unstable nature - I was thinking some sort of dex check DC to
avoid stepping on the most weak boards etc.
Later, they, along with many rescued people (perhaps 100+) will be
pursued along the road and come to the bridge.
I want this to be the set piece ending for quite a big part of the
campaign - The PCs getting all the rescued people (in small groups?)
across the bridge while holding off the large force of (prob
Orcs/Hobgoblins). Then, retreating over the bridge, before the main
hobgoblin army tries to cross and plunges to its doom.
I have the cinematics of the story worked out, I would just appreciate
some help over rule mechinics to heigten the stress and tension - eg DC
roles etc..
Thanks in advance.
