Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 1783493" data-attributes="member: 1465">As a matter of fact, I rarely have the NPC do CdG against the PC.It doesn't feel realistic nor smart to me that someone would want to waste precious combat time to make sure a dropped foe is really dead, while the others are still a threat. Sure, the dropped foe may be healed by some ally and come back in action, but most of the time it's a wasted round, and it always smells like metagaming (actually you're taking advantage by a quite generous rule about CdG as a FRA).At the same time it doesn't feel appropriate to me that characters in the fantasy world are all mercyless and bloodthirsty people who want the opponents dead. In some circumstances that could be true, there are assassins hired to be sure you're dead, there are encounters with the BBEG who had enough of your party spoiling his grand plans... But most of the times you just want to win the battle, and doesn't even necessarily mean the last of your opponents must be dead, although that is mostly always the result.</blockquote>
