*laughs*Experience from AD&D session yesterday, with me as player(Elven
Archer):Military campaign during a war. caravan we're in is ambushed by
orks+ogres...maybe a max of 30 people(incl. 3 PCs) on both sides...took
hour and a half. DM shouldn't have kept giving enemies reinforcements,
but still...on any system, trying to simulate a military situation is
impractical. any ideas?
