[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8456463, member: 29398"] My question is: why would I want or need to bother with any of that stuff? The ogre is the ogre. It has [I]45 HP, Str 19, AC 14 or by armour worn if better, 1 attack/round for d10+3 damage if using club, etc.[/I] no matter who or what it's fighting or is otherwise doing at the time. It doesn't get any simpler than that, and as a pleasant side-effect internal setting consistency is upheld. If the enemy's outclassed then it's outclassed. No need for all that "desperation" complexity - just kill it and move on. (note that I'll treat PCs the same way when, despite ample warnings, they put themselves in way over their heads :) ) [/QUOTE]
