I think Giants could quite easily throw man sized rocks (Siz 13-20) and roll
much larger ones (upto maybe 30-40) of course depending on Giant
size/strength, i've based the last ideas on 15m or so.
I'd probably use a DEX based attack roll with some sort of Climbing/Dodge
skill to avoid. Smaller ones PC's could parry with a shield if they felt
comfortable I guess.

Use the falling damage guidelines, (e.g., RQIII Deluxe, p82). Most rocks
will be SIZ 1 or 2 at most, but maybe some very big ones thrown by
giants and the like would be SIZ 5-10. Add a damage class for velocity
if thrown. They would kill quite easily.

I don't know if there is a lot of skill involved in rolling a rock down a hill.
Maybe a luck roll to hit rolling it down hill, and dodge roll to get out of the
way.

You could use the falling rules, in which case you have to work out how far the
rock has fallen, how big it is and so on. So, you'd have 1D6 for the rock damage
and a number of D6s for the height it has fallen. Be careful as a bad location
could kill a PC out of hand.
What I'd do is to give the rock a chance to hit and either have a SIZ vs STR
roll to knock them off or allow the rock to do damage (2D6 or maybe 3D6) and see
if that incapacitates the climber - don't forget the effects of knockback as
well. Are they wearing armour? If so, I'd penalise their Climb rolls.
Also, if the characters were foolish enough to rope themselves together, if one
goes he has a good chance of pulling the others off as well. Once again, make
the climbers make a STR vs SIZ roll to see if they are dragged screaming to
their deaths.
To make things less deadly, I've give the throwers a ridiculously small chance
of hitting (10%, maybe 20% if you are feeling harsh). Also, you might want to
give the climbers a Dodge attempt (limit it to the Climb roll, though to make
them really sweat).
I'd allow the monsters to throw one rock a round and roll randomly as to who is
thrown at. That way, you have a chance of getting an NPC without deliberately
picking them. Give the PCs a number of rounds in which to climb past the
monsters or to climb to a safe part which shields them from the rocks. If they
fumble their climb rolls then they'd fall off anyway, so that might be a way to
get rid of the NPCs.
See Ya
Simon
