Default Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.

Bah, I somehow mixed up which number was the weight and which was the quantity, and calculated that any more than 10 would exceed the weight limit.

This reminds me of the time back in 3.0 when I wanted to do the same thing, except with ordinary size crossbow bolts. 3.0 Telekinesis had no limit on the number of objects, only on the weight. I had fun imagining casting GMW on something like 200 crossbow bolts (4 castings), dumping them all out of a bag at some point, and hurling all 200 of them at one target with a single spell . Since 3.0 had no special provision for tossing ammunition with TK and it was not using the bolts as melee weapons, I was figuring a theoretical maximum of 200d8+600 damage if all of them hit. If even half of them hit, that would be 750 damage on average. In the worst case scenario of requiring a natural 20 to hit, it would still be 75 average damage with no save and no SR. Too bad my conscience got in the way and decided that was a tad too munchkinly .
