The annoying part to me is the framing that it's binary. That you are either pro-DM or pro-player, that no nuance exists. That just...

I absolutely love Tucker's Kobolds. Great article and great bit of RPG history. I'm far more a fan of combat as war than combat as...

Yeah, it's also a very old-school approach. Modern games have a lot to answer for in training players to blindly charge in constantly...
