[QUOTE="taliesin15, post: 3168595, member: 22058"] People don't have respect for demon hordes because they are a kind of worn-out cliche, and secondly because they tend to be run as a bum-rush mosh pit (ala The Who in Cleveland if we're talking 1st edition rules, maybe more like System of a Down today)--I guess it kind of depends on how many demons show up for the shindig, but nevertheless what awful tactics for them to open up a dimension door right where there's a bunch of well stocked high and mid-level mages, ready to take them out with not just their gear, but booths FULL of wands and staffs This would be a bit like some thugs from Queens coming down here to Texas, going to the Gun Show, muttering under their blunt that they don't get much respect, and attempting to stick up a vendor at the Gun Show--the problem wouldn't be how fast they'd be mowed down by bullets from multiple angles, but how many shots go through them and hit innocent bystanders. Anyhow, I think most Demons aren't Chaotic Stupid, and often have much subtler strategy. Ala the Bazaar of the Bizarre. [/QUOTE]
