Re: [HOE] Killed... my.... entire... posse...

["Dan Sulin" <grandmasternilus@hotmail.com>]

In a Game where players and G.M. have no really ability to change a die 
roll,  Fudging is usually Okay(D&D be a prime example).  The fact is that in 
Hell On Earth,  Players are given the ability to enhance rolls and negate 
wounds.  Once they get that down, the Marshal should not be very forgiving 
on Dice Roll. At least thats how I see it for my group.

Now here are some thoughts though.  The main point of playing an RPG is to 
have fun.  You should cater the way you run to your own personal players.  
Also Remeber a Marshall is 1/3 Organizer, 1/3 Judge, 1/3 Story teller.  A 
Marshall should never be even partially the players enemy(at least not in 
HOE).  A lot of G.M./D.M./Marshalls seem to have this us against me attitude 
towards players.  Killing party members is not fun,  because there really is 
not challenge in it.

Finally we still haven't heard how his or her(I don't remeber) party was 
totally killed.  Its quite possible that it was just a case of SPS(Stupid 
Posse Syndrome).  So tell us how they all died,  so then we can discuss what 
went wrong.
