Playing a paladin would be quite dull to me if every gaming situation were manipulated to the point that I NEVER had a moral quandry and my code of conduct was meaningless. It would likewise be frustrating if the game were manipulated to throw my character into a moral quandry every other session. There are many potential challenged in a D&D game. You could try to explore your character's personality, motivation, and morals -- perhaps growing in a sort of personal "hero quest". A campaign could be focused on mysteries, intrigue, and diplomacy. There could be dungeon adventures with lots of puzzles and riddles. Finally, there could be what you seem to like: adventures centered around combat and treasure. ALL of these are D&D games.Even the most combat-intense campaign probably has some other elements as well. If ALL you have is combat then you may as well sit at home and play computer games. If you have a group that wants to do nothing more than roll dice and kill things, then enjoy. Just don't delude yourself into thinking this is wht D&D is "about".</blockquote>
