No.Your reading way to much into what I wrote.There were not a lot of details given, thus the questions...Well perhaps its just the way we game.  Most times our DM's descriptions give hints that let us know (approximately) when someone is merely competent (guards that are 1st or 2nd level warriors) vs a  hardened adventurer (8th level ranger).  This works both ways.And without more details we don't know if the ranger threatened them first - thus agian - the question.So don't read into my questions any horrible metagaming killem all let God sort em out types of motives <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> If I was a murderous type armed with a M-60 machine gun, which the officer let me carry, I would say it wasn't very smart - which is pretty much what I was saying about the guards.I'm not defending the rangers actions but I'd like to know more about how the DM set the situatiion up before deciding that the rangers actions were completely off the wall.  Every once in a while a DM shows up here and only gives part of the story portraying the players in the worst possible light because they don't care for what was done.   That certainly doesn't seem (at this time) to be what happened here but without details you can never know.</blockquote>
