I am playing in this campaign with friends but won't be running any 4E. Last Friday an entire session was spent on one encounter with kobolds. Problems with minions and powers aside it just seems that everything has far too many hit points and combat becomes very repetitive and drawn out. Where oh where are my (non minion) kobold troopers that go splat in one good hit.  1st level characters used to have 1/2 or less the HP, not nearly as many "kewl powerz" as those of 4E but felt a hell of a lot more heroic. Charging a group of kobolds or goblins and stomping them down in a couple rounds felt more heroic than the all day grindfest. I just feel like the kobolds will eventually fall over from boredom before they run out of hit points. I see why they came up with daily powers now. Use these puppies every fight to help keep the battle from lasting ALL DAY. I enjoy gaming with my friends and I will keep playing 4E as long as someone else runs it but when my turn comes to run again it will be something faster paced and rules light.</blockquote>
