[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 7608097, member: 58172"] I think I get what you are saying. What do you do if a Long Rest is impossible. This scenario extremely harms the players who play daily-resource classes, mainly fullcasters. To some degree, always-on classes, like Fighter and Rogue, still suffer from depleting hit points. Ultimately, it is a game of fear and scarcity. Where Rogues are probably the most capable of surviving. While other classes are less likely to survive. This kind of scenario, can be unfun if too often for players who like casters. But it can be fun, once in a while, because of the change in mood. I want to emphasize the unfun part. My experience of playing Dragonlance was playing a Cleric who, it turned out, was unable to cast spells. To this day, I hate that setting with a burning passion. I couldnt care less if that hate is rational or irrational. So, whatever the case. Dont ‘surprise’ your players. [/QUOTE]
