airhead Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I had a hill giant climbing the castle last night. The climb stunt says you can climb 2 elevations when using a rope or using a ladder before you have to roll a stunt check. That is fine - for a normal sized guy (base size 1). We had a level 4 wall and a base size 3 giant wanting to scale it. For the night, we ruled the giant could free climb the wall up to base size +1. Same as a man going over a level 1 rock wall. Two levels larger than base requires a rope or ladder. Ideas? Critiques? Comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Sounds reasonable to me that a taller model would be able to climb a higher wall than a regular model with no added risk... but here is something to bear in mind too. A HEAVIER model such as a giant or troll SHOULD suffer some penalties for using a ladder or rope designed for normal models... and also a larger model when free-climbing could expect to find less suitably large handholds or ledges to pull himself up by....AND the bigger they are, the harder they fall. I once lost a troll to a rickety wooden ladder and a quick coup-de-grace. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
