Default Re: How important is combat to your game.

I knocked my GM off balance 2 sessions ago. The villian (local noble) had tracked me to the temple of the god of law and justice. I was there to present evidence of his crimes so it could be safeguarded until the matter could be presented at the Royal Court.

His intent was to surpress such evidence. He ordered my mage to drop his staff as I was under arrest. (the GM had the battlemat ready to go, most of the characters I have played would have resisted immediately) I dropped my staff and inquired as to the charges and the accuser.

It wasn't til one of the two guards tried to run me through that I even dodged. Even then the only spell I cast was Armor (total DR 7). It wasn't until the noble announced his intention to kill the Priestess of the god of law and justice that I started to go offensive...

Good guys won. Total body count 0.
