Re: (TFT) High Level Play

[Joey Beutel <mejobo@comcast.net>]

I know what you mean, but my players aren't smart enough to figure  
that one out/ they enjoy the adventuring life style/ they are playing  
characters that couldn't really get that high in society (they are low  
born in a world run by aristocrats, they are pirates and have no power  
that supports them, etc).

Point is: if they are just high attribute, that means they are just  
harder to kill. If they also have power, then you have a new issue (as  
you pointed out): the game becomes one of strategy and politics. Who  
can lead their kingdom/criminial empire/pirate boat to victory? Its  
not gonna be often that you can throw a few 32 pointers at them, but  
you can see whose army wins... and if yours loses, then it doesn't  
matter how high attribute you are, cause they outnumber you hundreds  
to 1.
