[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9224465, member: 2209"] I am going to agree with Pemerton here. CaGI as a narrative scene is often when opponents are inclined to rush the protagonist. Come and Get It Fighter Attack 7 You call your opponents toward you and deliver a blow they will never forget. Encounter ✦ Martial,Weapon Standard Action Close burst 3 Target: Each enemy in burst you can see Effect: You pull each target 2 squares to a space adjacent to you. You cannot pull a target that cannot end adjacent to you. You then make a close attack targeting each adjacent enemy. Attack: Strength vs. AC Hit: 1[W] + Strength modifier damage. So it can be anytime the hero gets rushed. I think of Inigo Montoya in Princess bride one shotting all the Count's minions as they rush him even though the Count gives the order to attack. More naturally to the sample description would be anytime the protagonist issues a challenge and the bad guys rush in, in response. Ash from Army of Darkness saying "Come get some." But also as mentioned earlier in the thread there is that fight with the big bald mustached Nazi mechanic in Raiders of the Lost Ark. It has been a while but my memory is that Indy is getting beat up badly and is outmatched and gets knocked away and the guy in his boxer stance with fists up is like come back here for our boxing match where I am beating you and Indy is like OK, give me a second, then does, and gets beat up more and loses the fight until the propeller takes out the mechanic. In 4e terms I could see the mechanic as a non-minion NPC fighter with CaGI. This could be an example of a come in and fight when you would rather not. [ATTACH type="full"]340796[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
