I totally agree. I've seen people be smart about their enemies and also
really dumb. But it always comes back to how the GM goes after you with
them. If every person who has an enemy dies, there is no real point to
that facet of the game. I've been lucky to be with two very cool GM's for
the last few years, and both give lots of hints and help on how to create
characters and how to play to stay alive and achieve goals (not specifics,
but in general).
