Are you almost always giving out max damage, and or soaking evey bit of damage the players send your way?"It seems that you just want to kill, to take out whatever is bothering you on the players...this makes me wonder what your like when your a player. Do you want to Frag players all the time? Are you upset when the DM outsmarts you and you get smoked...do you then feel its unjust..do you then Suck it up and pull up your panties and deal with it? I bet not, I bet you get your feelings hurt.Gaming, is about difficulty, you set up problems and the players deal with it or they dont move on. Like, use your assasins, send them at the players, but there are plenty of ways to make it so that its a fight and not an outright slaughter. Someone could have been awake in the inn, so the assasin had to kill him, but he got out one yell...this alerted the players..then you move on. I mean, come on, if your a DM there are tons of things you can do to hurt the players and reward them, leave them bleeding, but with a sense of "hell yeah that was great." And if you can't stop DMing, do some reading study and get back to it later.ON the other hand, I could be wrong. It may not be you, your players might be fools, they might never see anything coming, so they die alot, you may be getting tired of showing them things, and they still dont get it and die anways. Like "its a troll", the player then says "well, does it see me?" you then say "yes," the player then says "well, I draw my sword"  a few grounds of combat later, you say, "I told you." and the player goes "well, it shouldnt have stepped on me...I didn't think they could do that."But even so, the players are not out for YOUR amusement, they are not your play things to abuse when the day didnt got your way. Alot of DM's take their sorry outside lives into the game and ruin it for the players, for them, and it sounds like for you, Id say, "grow up, pull up your panties, make a cool game, interesting villians and have fun. If not, stop playing."</blockquote>
