[QUOTE="Mannahnin, post: 8387966, member: 7026594"] No. I understand the intent to be that a fight (or two, or three) by itself is never going to break a long rest. And neither is casting a spell. But if a threat emerges which forces you to spend an hour or more in activity- for example, fighting and then breaking camp to move it somewhere safer, or fighting, being on alert for the sound of more enemies approaching for twenty minutes, fighting again, and then spending time rebuilding camp, disposing of bodies, (etc.) All that can add up to an hour or more of strenuous activity which will actually break the long rest. It seems pretty clear to me that the intent in 5th is that you can have a fight or two on watch without it ruining a long rest. It has to be a more extended interruption to do that. I'd be supportive of a house rule to make any fight or casting ruin it, though, in the right campaign. Anyway, this is all a tangent. [/QUOTE]
