Hi all.
I am trying a new approach in my campaign.
I added some political intrigues and they will likely (and hopefully) end in a war between Blidgenstone (aided by Mithrill Hall) and Menzoberranzan.
If combat will be in underdark passages I think a good approach will be to use guerrilla tactics. In order to do that (and to make things easier for me) I divided the armies in small units (squads)
Svirfneblin have a penalty to strenght and are small, so I think warriors in this race are unlikely to engage in melee combat, while drow have -2 con so they will avoid high amounts of damage.
How do you think these squads are going to be built? I think Svirfneblin warriors will use spring attack and have some rogue levels to make sneak attacks and drow will use archery and concealment.
Drow Squads will be 4-6 NPC.
1 Capitain (Cleric or wizard)
1-2 Explorer (ranger or rogue)
2-3 Fighters (Warriors)
Svirfneblin squads will be the same size, but I have doubts in the classes involved in each role
1 Capitain
1-2 explorer
2-3 Fighters
Dwarf Squads are easier to make
1 Capitain (Cleric)
1 Explorer (ranger)
2-4 fighters (warrior)
I would apreciate your ideas and help
Saludos!
