If Six says it sucks warthog unmentionables, I believe him that it isn't fair/fun/etc. However, Six, are you totally opposed to Tactics "cheating" to the very letter of the law? In real p'n'p D&D, the DM can fudge skills in any direction he pleases, especially to make an enemy more challenging. That's the point of Tactics, it seems to me. The game rules apply to the players; the dungeon master is free to create an NPC or a creature beyond the normal limitations of their race or class, to provide challenge to the players and their limitations. Giving a human enemy 19 STR doesn't seem unreasonable at all. Of course the DM should still make vaulnerabilities for the enemy, else it would be impossible and no fun for the player. What I hope to glean from SixOfSpades reviews, is not whether Tactics cheats, but whether a Tactics battle is winnable/challenging/and fun.
