Two, the shear amount of character options in higher-level 4e slow things down in a way that just didn't happen in 1e.I like 4e too, but I don't find it's combat pacing ideal. I guess I was thinking of ways of abstracting convoluted mega-dungeons into a skill challenge/encounter hybrid that (a) takes less game time to play through, (b) excises some of the tedium, and (c) is less headache for the DM.Probably what constitutes "tedium" has a lot to do with our individual approaches and experiences with D&D. Personally, when my group of young professionals and grad students gets together 1 or 2 times a month to play D&D, I want to make the most of our sessions.</blockquote>
