>>So whats the check for defending against the volleys, luck?


There are several checks involved, but the most prominent is evasion based.

>>If the goal is to have more people to participate, perhaps have a story line.

There is in fact a storyline involved with the Elpalzi invasions -- one that has to this date literally made significant changes to Zoluren, including the permanent deaths of several long standing NPCs and the destruction of the home of its royal family. There is more to come.

While we do sometimes do one-off invasions as GMs (ie: ones where the only real story behind them is that creature X is irritable enough to go into a town and attack), the particular ones that were brought up in this thread are not that sort.

>>It also blows me away that invasion creatures don't have special loot now and then. That alone would have everyone in Elanthia gunning to defend cities.

Speaking about invasions in general, we do have invasion creatures that drop special loot now and then. The Elpalzi in particular, however, have not really been in that category beyond their base ability to drop special items because they are creatures who drop loot.
