[QUOTE="Brys, post: 5467594, member: 80979"] CS is not populated by rules lawyers. They tend to answer using only the information you provide. They don't have the reputation of looking up every aspect of the rules in question. It's very easy to phrase your question in a way that will get the answer you want. They are a great resource, but true enthusiasts of the game are going to be more knowledgeable. It's like the difference between asking a computer engineer for help with your Dell and calling the Dell customer support line. It seems settled that RAW, you cannot use sneak attack on an ally. The OP stated in thread title that this was a Rules question, not a how-you-would-play-it question. Not allowing Sneak Attack is not the same as saying "you can't make him hurt his friends." There are very few at-will powers or class features that only target enemies. I would hardly call it "destroying the literary device" by not allowing dominators to use those powers, but play the game how you like. No one is saying you can't play that way in your own game. Just don't try and argue that your houserules are part of The Rules. [/QUOTE]
