It stems more from certain players inability to roleplay the situations. The
goliath probably won't be the guy who starts the fights, but he'll end up
being as involved as the rest of them. difference being, he won't get hurt.

to be fair the situation can aabout from a gadgetter (minus gadget) trying
to get information out of a guy that didn't have any, as he was an extra.
the gadgetter then starts a fight, i'm stuck with either everyone in a
rough, tough bar (including key characters) running away and the hero's
loosing the only clues, or they fight this (very p***ed off) guy and his
(very p***ed off) friends, and we run on from there. maybe i made the wrong
decision.

well, that'd mean they were all less likely to survive it. probably a better
idea, because we could then reset the adventure and they could all have
another go.
