Gaining a foothold

Crashing onto the floor in the center of a large room, the heroes noticed 4 pillars, with stairs winding around them. Leading up to a series of catwalks. A huge throne occupied one side of the room, with a Colossus seated in it.

The monsters were ready for them and let loose a barrage of attacks that quickly put the party on the ropes. They quickly rebounded, taking control of the battle field and returning the barrage of attacks, in an even more deadly effort.

Several rounds later, the heroes stood victorious over the remains of their enemies. Much to their disappointment, a devil had grabbed two spell weavers off the catwalk and fled.

The battle was not as challenging as I had hoped, but the first, surprise round, definitely got the attention of the party. I had a couple monsters that worked fairly synergistically together and that is definitely something I need to bring to the final battle.
