I have not had much time for adventuring this week, but my Gnomes have now come face to face with Kresselack.

The last level of his tomb was pretty difficult, since the monsters had reached a level where one hit could kill my guys, whereas before a hit resulted in serious injury but still a chance for them to be healed. I also struggled when out-numbered by the undead as I entered the final chamber, it caused me several re-loads. Then I devised a better tactical solution - I had my Cleric at the front and he ran across the room as a decoy, taking about a dozen monsters with him, before casting Sanctuary so he could escape. The rest of the party cleaned out the few remaining undead, giving me a foothold in the chamber and a chance to save and rest. After that it was back to carefully creeping forward, one monster at a time.

So on to the next challenge for the 5 suicidal level 1 Gnomes!
