[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 7235812, member: 29398"] You - maybe intentionally - left off option C: that the party, despite its desire to push on, stays put and waits for the tank to recover. This choice, or versions of it, comes up in our games constantly...as it should. Do we wait for the incurable(s) to recover, or do we push on and try to shield them as best we can? Sometimes the party carries on (and sometimes the incurables die due to this), sometimes they wait. And a great impact if they don't have one, or if it's the healer who dies. (fun fact: this very thing is probably about to happen in my own game - lacking a healer, they recruited an NPC before leaving town - first major engagement in the field and when the session ended mid-combat said healer is isolated, prone, at 5 h.p., and one-on-one against a hill giant that will very likely finish her off next round unless someone can intervene) Lan-"and if they lose this healer, good luck recruiting another one from the same town!"-efan [/QUOTE]
