Bats, rats, and other nuisances reconsidered again for the n'th time.

I wonder why my players aren't so imaginative. Not once have they chosen a character just for its ability to handle wasps. Weird.

Anyway, I'm not sure what good fire does. Wasps can surely fly over the fire if out of doors (or perhaps avoid it due to the smoke). Even indoors, you'll kill some perhaps (how tall is that fire?), but the others will just avoid the fire, wait it out or leave.

In any case, I was interested in different rules for playing the various swarm critters and not so much character building strategies for defeating the same.
