Whoa. That's definitely a case of falling befoul my sig admonition "let the rules serve the game".

Heh. That's curiously correlates to something I said in another forum about different humanoids in the same dungeon that don't help each other akin to living in a "bad neighborhood".

At any rate, I think Melan's analysis of the KotB is much more astute.

Thanks for the links. Enlightening.

The rules should serve the game, not vice-versa.
Use the rules, but don't let the rules use you!
