Good tactics, but any set of tactics or plot device can be used to much.
Surprise tactics can all too often be received as the GM is just out to
screw the players. I do concur that playing the NPC's smarter is a definite
improvement in the effectiveness of opposition. NPC's that use cover, team
tactics, and delaying tactics are very dangerous to a quick stealthy run.
