If a given set of characters is killed off, there are a larger group of characters still intact involved in the campaign (and those players involved still have at least one PC surviving, they just roll up a new backup or new primary). It’s not the answer for every group but, especially when running games without resurrection magic (as our long running Dragonlance game was, aside from the occasional artifact), it helps keep the overall plot line intact.</p></blockquote><p></p>
