[QUOTE="gizmo33, post: 2319916, member: 30001"] Two of your last three statements are WAY overstating what I intended - which probably explains some things. I'm NOT saying that you're tactically inept - I was trying to say that there were some options that were worth looking at before bumping up the levels of NPCs involved. I actually enjoyed the "thought experiment" that you were throwing at me with regards to coming up with counter-measures to things. I'm really sorry that things were so insulting on your end. With regards to the "sharpened sticks" statement - I found many of your examples to be heavily one-sided: I think there's little room for debating that if a cleric in heavy armor with expeditious retreat is able to escape from soldiers, then those soldiers must not have horses. Are those points really that insulting? Perhaps I summed it up by saying something like "give those War1s some equipment in your hypotheticals please". That's all I meant. BTW- I have no experience with the actual 3E demographics and wouldn't try to defend them. I used them as a short-hand for a demographics system of some type. [/QUOTE]
