[QUOTE="DrunkonDuty, post: 8405977, member: 54364"] Towards the end of the Reign of Winter AP there's a bit where the heroes have to traverse a jungle. I changed it up to turn into a guerilla jungle war with a nasty evil spirit hit-and-running them. I hoped it would freak them out. Know what I forgot? They could all fly. Hell, the wizard's feet hadn't touched the ground since he got Overland Flight; by this level he'd enchanted a flying comfy chair to sit in. So they skipped the whole thing. Would I ban flight? Hell no. I, stupidly, took the time to build the wrong encounter. And that's on me. If I wasn't a numpty I would have built a cool aerial encounter of some sort. Sky islands, dragons, faeries, yada yada, yada. Flight doesn't limit adventure design options. Flight, like every other potential PC power, informs how an adventure will be played out. As the GM I need to take into account what the PCs can do. If I don't do this, if I am a numpty, well, re-read that first paragraph. [/QUOTE]
