And when they are not prepared they should flee and regroup.The DM should not dumb his monsters down and play them like they would be complete tactical morons just so that Mr. "I only need a melee weapon" fighter can hit it.Problem with 4E is that the powers are so restricting. Even when the fighter gets a bow he would do rahter low damage to the dragon (if he can even hit it as Dex won't be his primary stat).</blockquote>
