The difference is that flying makes this an option in many cases where it would not have otherwise been possible.yeah, not having fliers is 'warping all the rules'...not all encounters need to counter them, but many definitely will have to take them into account, pretending otherwise is just flat out false. You can call that part of good encounter design all you want, but it still means I have to design the encounter differently because of them (and potentially a lot more than just the encounters)</blockquote>
