Badger, check out the D&DXp sheets on the WotC site. The fighter has TWO abilities, both call "Combat Challenge" - one for marking, the other for getting an immediate attack on a shifted foe. So you aren't actually talking about the same thing...SupremeBadgerLord said:Combat Challenge is the name of the fighter classes marking. No worries I'm using terminology that wasn't used at DDE I guess. I assure you it is the same difference. We are talking about the exact same thing people are forgetting to do. Funny thing is the two different paladins in the group have never had any problem remembering how Divine Challenge works, that's why at least as far as my group goes, I'm blaming it on the player not caring enough to remember, rather than the system.
Still, first time playing at a Con, I can see how both of these abilities require a little more attention on the part of the players. I get the feeling, however, that it'll become second nature to a fighter player, and I agree with other posters, the player having to track these things just like the character would is a good thing, and arguably aids with immersion/verisimilitude/role-playing during combat.
