Pile up your Dead

[Surgoshan]

Is it time to refer to OotS again? I think it is.

Anywho, I think to make it realistic, you'd have to not only make people climbing over corpses a balance check of some kind, but give them combat advantage once they're up there.

I find it funny that people would find it too morbid. You KILL monsters in the game. Why wouldn't they leave bodies?

Because it's a little more romanticized without the bodies. Killing things all the time doesn't feel nearly as bad when you don't have to walk past their bodies

I think if they want to market the game to younger people (ie teens or pre-teens), the parents would probably object less if there weren't rules that constantly reminded their kids that they are killing things. Think of it as the "turn blood and gore OFF" mode in many video games

Haha, that is exactly the strip I was thinking about while I read this thread.

Ah, good times -- I remember in a convention game when my Paladin stopped up a breached castle gate by killing enough men and horses beseiging us to pile up in front of the door to where the rest of the army couldn't get through...

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;. Or close the wall up with our English dead.

That doesn't always work.
