Hehe, good points, Malthaussen, and as a matter of fact, Rataxes and I do. Restrict ourselves that is, but we debate on what is cheese, and what is not in order to decide what should be restricted.
There was one time where I restricted myself to not use metal armour or helmets, and everybody had to be proficient in bows and quarterstaves if they could. They made it all the way through the game( SoA-ToB).
Even today, I still restrict myself and am slowing edging to borderline insanity on restrictions. I construct elaborate tactics involving Mod items, but strangely enough, forbid myself to use them.
In response to Rataxes, I guess this is where we decide to agree to disagree, as I simply cannot fathom the Sahuagin as more formidable than the Beholders.
Everytime I fight them, I think of them as XP meatbags. Even the much vaunted Improved Sahuagin Priestess was a non-issue( and subsequently a disappointment) for me.
