[QUOTE="ExploderWizard, post: 4505500, member: 66434"] Game board mastery happens when the rules support certain tactical decisions because of an advantage granted only because of the game rules and not rational thought. For example: My character is fighting a tough battle against a fighter and his little rogue buddy. We are fighting in a cave dotted by boiling mud pits. The fighter has several powers that can knock me prone which allow no saving throw. This allows him to constantly lay me out so his little buddy gets combat advantage until I stand up. As a tactical "master" I run and put my back to a boiling pit of mud ( not the smartest move to take with someone who can knock you back mind you). Now when he tries to bowl me over I get a chance to save " because that would put me in danger". Now I get a chance to stay on my feet and fight due to a move born of sheer idiocy. I am a smooth tactician? Nope. I know rules and loopholes, thats it. [/QUOTE]
