Well I'm DMing a game where there is a large potential for wolf swarms in the future... is there any set of mechanics for them as a swarm somewhere homebrewed or otherwise besides the swarm template that I think was in one of the FC books? I mean it may have worked, but I'd have no idea how big to make it, and it's really meant for smaller critters.

I believe the cityscape book has a template to make mobs, which works quite nicely for creatures of small size or bigger.

There is a "mob" template from the DMGII which allows you to do this. The swarm template normally only effects Tiny creatures or down.

The DMG2 has rules for mobs of animals.

Oh yeah, forgot that was animals too :smallbiggrin:
thanks guys.
Edit: though I think I'll keep my ear open if someone knows of a really cool one just on the off chance. :smallwink:

The Advanced Bestiary has a template to convert creatures into swarms. Though it will make them tiny. lol.

I was thinking more like bee-sized wolves. It is hilarious.

>.> Idk man, bee sized wolves can get in your clothes, hair, ears, nose. I'd rather deal with the chihuahua size ones, least I could field goal kick them around.

There is a mechanic in the World's Largest Dungeon for making Hoardes of Small or greater sized creatures (effectively swarms lol)
