Let's do the SAME COMBAT in D&D and Pathfinder 2E! ("Pathfinder Law School" #3, Part 1 of 2)

Here in Part 1 of 2 of the THIRD(!) course of "Pathfinder Law School," I run the same combat in both D&D 5E and Pathfinder 2E. This isn't to "prove which is better," but to help people compare the systems, learn the systems, and sort out the differences between two similar-looking games in their heads! Of course, it should spark fun discussion, too.
