I am working on a session for tonight and was using this part of STK with the siege. But, I must me miss-understanding something with the balance. The book says to throw 3 CR 8 Storm Giants and 2 CR 3 Winter wolves against a lvl 5 party. Won't this ensure a TPK. I feel like I need to completely scrap this whole thing and rewrite, but I do not have time. Any advice on if I need to rebalance or read this wrong would be AMAZING!
Make sure your party knows that the Quests surviving Npcs give are good and will give them valuable loot. My party decided to use them all as Cannon fodder and didn't get a single quest. If they do this, make sure they know that they will be missing out on a lot.
My party also decided not to defend Bryn Shander so now it's been half destroyed in my campaign. 192.168.1.254
