[QUOTE="D'karr, post: 4445554, member: 336"] If I was arguing anything of the sort you'd have a point. However, I was responding to another poster about something completely different and 1e was not even part of what I was discussing. Specially since the thread is specifically about minions, which is a game artifact introduced in 4e and nowhere to be found in 1e. My point was that using a housecat (which I'm assuming is a creature) to attack a farmer (which I'm assuming is an NPC or minion in this case) is an exercise in rules manipulation just for the hell of it. First, because I don't spend my DM time perpetuating NPC on NPC violence by using the combat rules. It is a waste of resources and time. If I need the farmer dead I just kill him. I don't need to roll the dice or see what the cat's attacks are to determine that. Second, since the discussion is about minions and therefore about 4e; adventurers in 4e are not farmers (minions or NPCs) and a housecat (minor creature at best) would be hard pressed to kill one in one hit. My posts above all speak about the same subject. You must have missed them. So where did you find, in 4e, a housecat that can kill an adventurer in one hit?* [size=1]*Since we are rhetorically speaking, of course.[/size] ;) [/QUOTE]
