[QUOTE="EOL, post: 62598, member: 823"] I realize this is a gross depature from the original topic of the thread, so this will be my last appeal before they lock me up in the non-lucid forum, because apparently no matter how many different ways I try to explain myself I'm just shouting in the wind. This statement is exactly what I'm talking about. In the first place don't you think the official rules should be the ruling that makes the most sense? In the second place you all seem to be waiting for the "official ruling" (which has yet to make it's presence know) as if it were canon from on high, meanwhile denouncing people on either side of the argument (ER with fly or no ER with fly) because they are making decisions based on what makes sense rather than what the "official ruling" is. (Which as I mentioned has yet to make an appearance.) Sometimes even on the D&D rules forum you 've got to make a choice based on what you think is best. I'm predicting (though I could be wrong) that this thread will die an unremarkable death without the "official ruling" on the topic ever being known. And all of us DM's will have to go back to our games and make the best ruling we know how when creating that NPC Dragon and deciding whether or not to give him expeditious retreat.... [/QUOTE]
