Flanking gives a nice reason to move around. Also, remember that people are cover and, as such, will provide bonuses and penalties. Dungeons & Dragons is not Double Dragon; dead bodies don't disappear. Make them difficult terrain. Also, make your terrain dynamic. If you're in a castle, as we learned from Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade, there will be tapestries. And flames. Make something catch fire. Give your players a reason to move. Like defending the spellcaster. Anything more intelligent than a wild animal knows that the guy in the bathrobe has magic. Keep diligent track of healing spells used and be stingy with resting. If the only way someone stands back up is to get beside them and pour a healing potion down their gullet, now players will move.</blockquote>
