[QUOTE="Helspar, post: 213895, member: 4849"] Part of the problem is that these are some of my best friends and they seem to enjoy the hack and slash immensly, I'd hate to turn the group on its side just for me to have more fun. The wierd thing is we play SR with the same people and it turns out much better on the RP side of things. Killing everything that moves is not always the best option. Granted some of the players do view this as "poker night" and I don't mind that with the frequent off topic discussion and incessant ridiculing of our poor host. (All in good fun though). But here is a sample of play. DM: As you look in the walk in the room you see 2 gnolls run with a shout brandishing axes towards you! Wizard: Hold your ground fellows, I have a plan! Psi warrior: I charge to the attack! Monk: I follow! Priest: I cast Bull strength then I charge too! Rogue: I run around to the side! (A gross melee ensues) End of combat Psi warrior: Holy did we ever take a beating! looks like its back to town to buy more healing potions. Priest: Who's hurt? Monk: I open door on the south wall.... Repeat from top. [/QUOTE]
