I asked if you where talking about Combat as War as a gamist concept or a simulationist/realistic concept. I didn't see the answer to that question in your response.That was my answer. You asked me a question about a position I don't take and I explained the position I do take.
You said:
How does this response answer my question about how your thinking about, or asking us to think about, CaW?You seem to be stuck on the notion of a single group of monsters. There's a reason I used the word 'eventually'. The PC's may have a sizable advantage advantage against enemy group A and may completely demolish them, but enemy Group A isn't the only enemy group and the PC's won't have a sizable advantage against every enemy group.
As a refresher, I said:
Perhaps not as clear as I stated above, but that was my intent. If you missed it the first time, do you understand the question now?Are you saying that in a gamist way, such as the DM always stacks the deck in favor of the Monsters? Or in a realist manner?
