[QUOTE="marune, post: 4041894, member: 18243"] Static encounters = simulationist play = I don't want to play with you ;) Tailored encounters = gamist or narrativist play = I may want to play with you :p 4E seems to admit itself more a gamist than simulationist RPG, so default will probably be tailored. However, static may be mentioned with warnings. I could elaborate to death on why I don't like simuliationist play and why your example with the dragon can lead to problems during play but we got enough of these threads recently. Edit : BTW, a ancient red dragon at "1st level" can be used as a plot-device in both gamist/narrativst play, but that doesn't translate to a Static encounter in known usage. [/QUOTE]
