[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 1565906, member: 19675"] [b]Smell the Coffee![/b] After my comment: Dragonlancer wrote (over several posts): [I]Emphasis Mine[/I] You're the DM. The buck stops at your desk. YOU let him design a combat intensive PC in a role-play heavy campaign. Either you apparently weren't ready for the consequences-the friction that could and did cause, or you didn't warn him about the predominant play style of the campaign. Either way, its a serious error on your part. You cannot expect him to play his PC less than optimally just because the other PCs aren't as good in combat as he is. That's nonsense. I understand you two are freinds, and that may have caused you to gloss over the possibility of conflict here, but now you're fully aware of it. Everything you've posted here indicates to me that [B]you don't like his PC and what it does in your campaign[/B]. Despite your protestation, those quotes abvove tell me the PC and the campaign are currently ill-suited to each other. You either need to feed the combat monster a little more or let Likudice design a new PC that is more campaign appropriate. Likudice, on the other hand, shouldn't question stuff in game unless its a genuine point of controversy. Your word should be final. He also shouldn't take it personally if there isn't a combat cookie tossed in his direction EVERY session. D&D isn't all about combat. If that's what he wants, he should play Chainmail, Confrontation, or some such. [/QUOTE]
