We had a run with a fence (5 meters and electrified) too...

Problem was the Barghest inside... Everyone got paralyzed except papa troll

So he used his own form of levitate person (ouch!)...


A few weeks ago something similar happend (Harlequin the 6th)...

A Barghest paralyzed poor papa troll and all other players (verbally) took
revenge... They said 'Yeah, throw him into the fence, and the like)...

LOTS OF FUN (but they sure didnt do such ugly things with poor troll).

Why didn't you "Levitate Person" on the barghest to get it out of the way?

If you can move some one 60m/round, why bother slamming them?
1/ use them as a ram to hit other enemys / vehicles/ cause
property damage
2/ Pick em up and drop em from 60m up
3/ Spin them round so fast they haemorage
4/ fake suicide leaps from bridges/buildings
