Always rolling to see how their defense went and always rolling to see how well their offense went is a consistancy. Everybody then gives lead in style descriptions on there attacks.... and finishing descriptions on the defense. DM and Player alike. For players the dice lend to the illusion of control and draw there attention to the action low rolls and high rolls are memorable etc. I think the DM giving up that touch of narrative control to allow the players to show awesomeness in how their character is able to avoid being trashed when attacked (that is what hit point loss normally describes) is appropriate.I suspect that if they release an Unearthed Arcana for 4e it will see the light of day....(right alongside additional rules for power reuse and wounds) because yes it can be fun.</blockquote>
