[QUOTE="Felon, post: 4756226, member: 8158"] Well, characters standing around doing is kind of at the far opposite end of the spectrum from "gotta go, gotta go right now". I prefer the happy medium where people act based on necessity. My group has a guy who always plays martial types, and he always wants to charge right in to thick of battle. Of course, that constantly gets in the way of the arcane classes who want to toss AoE's but only have AoE's that target "all creatures" instead of "all enemies" (that's the burden of the arcane power source). So, it's getting to the point where we just shrug and blast him too. Another player had a paladin who I was trying to ask to hold off from charging a really tough opponent (an owl bear) that I wanted to drop a control effect on. I was trying to coordinate a plan of action with him, but he got miffed that discussing tactics was slowing the game down, so he just moved his five squares and passed his turn to me. He died fighting that owl bear, along with another character. I hope he learned something. [/QUOTE]
