I see a lot of people having trouble with 3/4 party groups. Has anyone played 2 player or 5/6 and noticed similar results with difficulty and such? I ask because I mainly play with just me and the fiance.
We played with 5 the other night and it was quite difficult. We were unable to win the second scenario due to two arboreal traps, which pretty much wiped me (as Balazar) and our shaman out. After the third trap, all I could do was try not to get killed. Then the third arboreal trap sprung. I barely survived.
Ultimately we ran out of time. On the last blessing card, the big bad was cornered and defeated but, unfortunately, other players forgot to make their checks to temporarily close locations before the fight. Since they forgot (and I really wanted to win), I had them roll. All they needed to do was roll a survival or fortitude 8 check. Both the Hunter and Bloodrager confidently stated they had +modifiers to each skill and it should not be a problem.
The Hunter rolled a 3.
The Bloodrager rolled a 2.
I didn't cry. I wouldn't give the game the satisfaction!
