[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 4712013, member: 3586"] The context of the encounter was everything. Because the werewolf encounter was surrounded by a lot of roleplaying, what it actually gave the players was a fun encounter where they could use their powers without being distracted by annoying terrain. Too many complications in combat is actually a flaw of PoS: the simple encounters run quickly and are fun. So, the combat went 9 rounds, which was about 30 minutes of play. It was somewhat extended by three of the PCs spending a couple of rounds trying to Intimidate it into surrendering - "Bad Dog!" - they failed, but it was close. ;) Our group really enjoys combat... it's just that we like it to be broken up with other pursuits and for it not to be frustrating. The werewolf encounter was a nice meat-and-potatoes combat where they could show who was best! Cheers! [/QUOTE]
