In most combat situations (D&D game), what position do you prefer to take?

If playing a fighter, in the front, swinging my greatsword and challenging the onrushing foe.

If playing a wizard, in the rear, casting deadly spells and relying on the meat shields to buy me time.

If playing a cleric, in the front, buffed with powerful spells and singing a paean to my god.

If playing a bard, usually hands and knees, begging the DM for an easy fight. :)
 




non healing support position. I like bards, but they can't do a lot directly in combat, so it tends to be a combination of buffing the others, sniping when I can and flanking if it will help. occasional backup healing as well, but more generlized...

failing that option I went for gurilla tactics because those are fun.
