Wine Bottle 4. Wine Cask 5. Wine Cellar - Troll Hulking Hurler 6. Broad Side of a Barn - Hulking Hurler 7. Great Wyrm Gold Dragon Carcass - the lesson here is, never, EVER, let the hulking hurler into a dragon graveyard! 8. Kobolds - Two Weapon Fighting with two kobolds and a Half-Ogre Drunken Master 9. Kobold-Chucks - four kobolds, two spiked chains and same drunken master 10. Dire Rat Flail 11. Lich on a stick - Ogre Warhulk who rolled a natural 20 on three straight save or dies 12.

| JadeSpider964307-07-07, 01:00 AM | 17) Tree feather token - readied action to throw it at a black dragon and activate it when it poped it's head out of the water. sadly the attack roll critically failed and landed in my square, the resulting tree pinned me under the water....fatally 18) a wheelbarrow full of gold pieces used to overrun some peasants in a monstrous semi-evil campaign 19) grease spell + torch (I sure wasn't the first to use, but I'm a big fan of it) |
| etraikov07-07-07, 09:18 AM | Didnt some other thread try to determine the best improvised weapon? I believe they came up with the hat rack. It has 10ft reach, and can trip and disarm. |
| radiation_messiah07-07-07, 10:23 AM | 20) Burning goblins: Goblins with bandoliers of Alchemists fire. Just pick them up, crack them like you do those glow rods, then chuck them at the other goblins. |
| ADHadh07-07-07, 01:11 PM | 21. An anvil teleported above enemy's head. |
| T_Stalker07-07-07, 01:42 PM | 22) A heavy crystal ashtray 23) A bar stool 24) A chair 25) A half full plate 26) A rock 27) A heavy gold chain 28) A string of dough 29) A teacup 30) A sock full of copper coins |

| lint trap07-07-07, 02:02 PM | Your enemy's severed arm. "Stop hitting yourself." |
| Hellsbells07-07-07, 02:16 PM | 37) your enemies spleen (or even better your own) apllied with alchemical substance so that it acts like a grenade. WOOT Stubbs the Zombie! (in rebel without a pulse) 38) the but of a crossbow. you do realize that the rules have no rules for doing that, using the flat side of the blade, hitting them with the pomel stone, etc. 39) a toy sword 40) Nixon, Richard Nixon |
| Pangeon07-07-07, 02:27 PM | 41. A Rake. (Best character ever, RIP Xiao.) |
| Druss_of_The_Sword07-07-07, 03:04 PM | 42: Cats. 43:Women...At least 1/2 of the nation will fall if you have a hot chick by your side. |
| Sajek07-07-07, 03:21 PM | If you had the kobold/gnome's cooperation (unlikely), he could ready an action to attack whenever you swung him. 44. A broken off door (THOG IMPROVISE! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0396.html)). 45. The entire tavern (enlarged stone giant Hulking Hurler). 46. A dead drow's spine (don't ask). Last one actually happened. 38) the but of a crossbow. you do realize that the rules have no rules for doing that, using the flat side of the blade, hitting them with the pomel stone, etc. I think there are. You can take a -4 on your attack to do nonlethal damage. Curiously enough, you can't crossbow-whip someone. |
| justin_byrne07-07-07, 04:47 PM | 47. chair leg 48. a herring (possibly to fell a tree) |

| J_Vhad07-08-07, 01:07 AM | 65. an Inkpen If you find yourself going through too many of them, breaking off the tips in foes armors and such go for that spendy admantine inkpen at the local noble's shop. |

| radiation_messiah07-08-07, 01:42 AM | 51. The wizard's spellbook My last wizard had a prismatic spray trap on his spell book that would go off when anyone but him touched it. It only saw combat once, when my wizard was caught off his guard, panicked, and threw the spell book at them. Petrification is awesome. |
| T_Stalker07-08-07, 08:55 AM | Off topic: is there a feat that lets your pc rip out someone's innards? In which case: 74: The orc leader's small intestins. 75: The half dragon's stomach (grenade like) 76: Rust monster antennas 77: The boiling kettle of soup 78: Soap on a rope 79: A chandeleer (drop it on whatever, raise it again, repeat. optionally give it a good swing before raising it and make some really complex rolls) 80: The bedpan (used or not) 81: An arrow (no bow) 82: The little glass framed paintings on the wall. 83: A pole, minus the dancer. 84: A ray of frosted rose/bouquet. (I'd give it 1d6 slashing + 1 cold) |

| Karish07-08-07, 09:02 PM | 95. An alignment discussion. |
| RodinGates07-08-07, 09:41 PM | 96. In one campaign a friend ran a ghostly dragon was being summoned when it's bones were immolated on the funeral pyre of the local chief who had slain the dragon. After the bones were pulled from the fire and the dragon's spirit appeased the PCs still had to prepare for an imminent invasion of hostile barbarians. It was then decided to load the dragon's bones on a wagon, set it on fire and then roll it down the hill into the advancing enemy army. The dragon was disturbed once again and destroyed the invading army. So yea, Cursed Dragon Bones ftw. |
| T_Stalker07-12-07, 09:58 AM | 97. A bumper (I don't know if that's a grammatically correct word, but it seems logical to me since people tend to put stickers on them) 98. A bag of holding 99.

Hot wax on hairy body part (1 round to cool down, then tear it off) Careful, that stuff may be better left to the mature forums. ;) http://www.geocities.com/customsmiliesbyswordmaster/inthered.txt |
| peteyrock07-12-07, 02:55 PM | 112. A medium or small-sized opponent. My Half-Orc Barbarian (one of the many, I know) was in a bar brawl and picked up one of the drunkards by the ankles and began swinging him at his own buddies.
