Tonight my players fought their way through a Warforged colossus, destroying its three power cores to shut it off before the evil order of artificers piloting it could use it to unearth a demon who’s singular purpose is to infect and assimilate all technology into itself.
And then they fought my worlds Baba Yaga’s chicken hut in said Warforged colossus like they were a 6 man jaeger team in pacific rim because as it turns out she was the one behind all of it.
It was the stupidest, silliest, wackiest most insanely over the top session ive run in years. It was also one of the best sessions ive run in a long time.
We laughed ourselves to tears more than a few times. Everyone got to do something incredibly epic. The rogue took the helm and uprooted pine trees to use as giant daggers, the Paladin channeled smite through a howitzer, the sorceror turned a disintegrate spell into the death star beam, the artificer fused himself into the body of the mech to briefly become a living power source, and the monks used their ki to fire rocket fists.
It was stupid. It was the best time.
Dungeons and Dragons is so much better when you just have fun with it. Fun is the point. Chase that always.
