[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 3645741, member: 20805"] I have left many groups.. but usually due to moving.. military is good at that. There were a couple groups that I used the military move as an excuse, altho incompatable play styles was a close one. Fer instance, this one group I joined for a short time while at a 4 month training deal... the GM was pretty nice and the group seemed okay, altho a bit power-gamed. Found out in a later session that one Rogue had a feat that allowed her to, as a free action, flip over an attacking character. This not only negated the attack but also allowed her to be 'flanking' with herself... ? All sorts of stuff like that. Anyway, last session with the group they took offense to my buddies characters, a monk, and one of the PC's attacked him. He returned the favor with a Stun attack that worked quite well. The Tank of the party, who moments earlier was sitting on the seat of a covered wagon 'entertaining' a pretty young lass...100' up from the Monk decides that on his initiative {first round} he would leap to his {normal} warhorse, grab his lance and do a Spirited Charge against the Monk... DM allowed it and the resulting 100+ points of damage destroyed the Monk. THen they turned on my character, and EoM mage who had been casting non-damaging spells to separate the PCs and stop the fight... I left in a burst of darkness and a summoned flock of ravens that would cover the retreat of my polymorphed {raven form} character...the DM tried to say that they could target me for two rounds... They killed most of the ravens before the DM read my note that stated that I had stayed in the darkness for one more round and cast Invis before retreating in a safe direction.... Both he and the party were annoyed that they didn't kill my character and blamed me for cheating with spells that weren't legal. Funny given that the DM didn't bother reading the EoM rules when he allowed my character :shrugs: I didn't tell them why we left. If they didn't know by then, it wouldn't be worth it. Ended up meeting two other players that had ditched out of the game and had a really good game :) [/QUOTE]
