[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 8959125, member: 6684958"] You need to settle down. I know "railroad" is a trigger word, but just keep it in context. So I'm talking about where the DM or the Players or the DM and Players together all agree that there will be no character death in the game. In such a game, the DM can freely railroad as everyone agreed on it. So this is where the DM can alter the game reality to make sure character death never happens. The DM rolls a '20', nope DM says 'it;s a 2'. The 20th level lich arch wizard....attacks with the spell chill touch and not death blast. the vicious monsters "suddley" take the player characters prisoner as soon as the fight goes against the players. Lots of gamers do it. It's not unheard of. I'm not sure where you see me doing what you say? I think what your missing is that I post something. You read it and post all sorts of the above. Well, if you were of the mind set that "I play my game" and "you play your game" I'd ask why you are even posting? You kind of lost me with "system say". Would that not be Player and DM say? If all the players and the DM all read the rule that says "no player character can ever die in this game", and everyone agrees to play that game with that rule....then it's both players and DMs agreeing....
