DM: "The Berserker's axe cleaves deeply into the fire elemental lord's chest, and with one final fiery shriek the bright red glow of its eyes dims to embers and then extinguishes forever. The Dwarven capital city is saved from certain immolation!" Human Oracle: "I search the corpse for items." DM: "It's a pile of incredibly hot ash and cinders that repels you with painful heat." Human Oracle: "I cast Protection from Energy: Fire on myself and then search the corpse for items." DM: *annoyed* *rolls dice* . . . "OK, you find - are you writing this down? It's not my job to keep track of this for you so pick up your pencil . . . OK, you find a platinum ring with a large emerald inset into it, a chain mail shirt that feels unnaturally light and strong, ten red gemstones of varying size, and . . . *rolls dice* . . . 40 liters of refined diesel fuel in two jerry cans." Human Oracle: "Oh thank Sarenrae, I thought my 'dozer was gonna be stuck in this stupid cave forever! I cast Detect Magic and look at the loot." DM: "The ring, the chain shirt, and the jerry cans full of diesel are all emitting a magical aura." |

The kobold lunges desperately at your dozer! It's a critical hit! His tiny dagger pierces the hydraulic supply line, causing a pinhole leak, filling the air with a toxic cloud of hydraulic fluid mist! The caustic mist burns your eyes, make a saving throw for constitution! |

A forest of hostile treants surrounds my dozer, thinking they’ve finally stopped me. I toss my cigar on the ground, and turn to the rest of the party, grinning wickedly “Time to get out the feller-buncher and make a little lumber”

Waiting on the Thieves Guild guys to get off their 4th legally mandated coffee break of the morning and finish disabling this damned pit trap. Dragons are easy, Thieves Guild shop stewards are CR 22 and immune to all diplomacy checks and charm spells.

pixaal posted:1 *winces* Take 1d10 damage! The burning pain in your eyes is excruciating. Luckily there is some castor oil in the first aid kit in the dozer, unluckily, you are temporarily blind so fumbling around for relief causes you to be Stunned for the next round. Also your dozer has lost all hydraulic pressure and cannot attack until you can isolate the leak. It can still move. |

the OSHA thread is the best thread in GBS. they provided me hard numbers for calculating what kind of effort it would take to physically demolish a tomb. PHIZ KALIFA posted:Thanks to Devor for providing approximate numbers for this one. I recalculated volumes after realizing that 1) I am bad at math and 2) stoned. It would take one team 45 days to level the site to grade, then 267 to excavate the additional 20 yards down. crimes |

alright now that we know it would take marginally less than a year for an actual bulldozer squad to demolish the tomb can we goldmine this thread?
