They harassed me all the time. At least, that's how my character saw it. Now, 1E was very much a resource utilization game, at least the way we played it. You often fought many battles in a day and sometimes went into battles down on HP, spells and other resources. Such was the case when the final battle of the fire giant module errupted. In the end, there were two of us left standing, each engaged with one fire giant. The rest of the party were unconscious or dead. I killed the giant on me and my friend, another cleric, had his low but was under 10HP. He asked me for help and... I killed him, finished off his giant, coup-de-grace'd everyone else, collected the final treasure, and put a temporary end to the campaign... although I was later convinced out-of-game to raise up a couple of the characters and continue to the Demonweb Pits.</blockquote>
