Both played rather... under optimised and well, like they were defenders. One of my older friends and I, he's playing a tielfling hexblade, had made much mockery of their deaths while coming close a time or two ourself as I also tend to work like a tank and he's a striker that occassionally decides to get in the midsts of things because he thinks it looks cool.While we have our quips and fun in combat, it's been pretty much a dungeon hack feast and I can't get my buddy's arguement that he wouldn't play Descent over D&D because that's a board game. I keep asking him what's the difference and outside of the vastly more detailed character creation/advancement rules, in actual game play he can't come up with an answer.Mind you I don't care about that in terms of actual play. It's just a point of reference I like to bust his chops on. I'm having a good time playing and even have a miniature I painted up for it and have posted a pic or two or the dice betraying me like three 1s for iniative.</blockquote>
