[QUOTE="Cadence, post: 8336342, member: 6701124"] If I DM'ed the way I'd like I would still dial things (rolls, hp, etc...) down or up if something turned out to be off about my planning (holy cow, I didn't realize effect X could do that!?! or holy cow, I didn't realize monster X and Y synergized that well). I would not dial things down or up due to good or bad player choices or lucky or unlucky die rolls. (I put not doing that as the thing I wish I was better at in another thread that's going on right now). I imagine that the amount of effort I put into the monster tactics in real time combat would be (at the least) subconsciously affected by how things were going. I don't know what pretending would be needed. I guess if you usually have set pieces on a page coded to the map and are fake flipping to it to make it look like it was planned all along? Or if the players ask after the fact if it was random or planned or how they could have avoided it? (Do they do that). [/QUOTE]
