BG1-Rieltar, true enough scenario? Spoilers.

Okay, so I was in Candlekeep, looking for the leaders of the Iron Throne. I found Rieltar and his cronies, and when I approached him with one character, he told me to leave. I said "fine" and left him to call my comrades over. I then rushed in with entangle, paralyze, and hold spells being cast before my tanks started hacking. The Iron Throne heads were taken out, putting up less than a fight...

My question...Do you think this was fair to roleplaying? Obviously, Rieltar did not know who I was, but I knew who he was. An easy attack, and a legit one, I feel, on a character who wasn't hostile. How would you rather do it in real life? Pop your head in to see who's there and have them merely dismiss you, then suprise attack, or run in there and declare your intentions?

I think it´s fair to at least let your victims know why you are before you kill them. So I couldn´t have done it the way you did from a role-playing point of view (except if Rieltar & comrades would have been 5x as powerful), but it´s everyones own decision.

PS. There is forum for BG1 too, but if you click "ironworks gaming forums" instead of just "ironworks gaming", it doesn´t show up.
