I knew there was a thread about gnolls. I just posted what was probably one of the most epic combats in any game I've ever run. I believe the party was all about 3rd level, and large, when it entered a gnoll fortress. Actually, it's an old dwarven fortress now used by a large tribe of gnolls and flinds.

It was in the Keep at Koralgesh adventure, and you can find it here if you're interested in how the fight went:

I never realized how cool gnolls could be, before running this. They have more promise than many other races, and I tried to play them tough and smart. I believe, if used correctly, gnolls can provide quite a challenge for most adventuring groups.

And it's only the beginning.
