i do not do anything with power gamers when the elect to join one of my 
games. if you do not like the campaign, leave. cut and dry. in the limited 
time i've been GM'ing i've never had a problem with players being 
unsatisfied with my games and, although not a 'rules lawyer', i do try and 
stick to material printed in official sources for all the systems that i 
run.  most power gamers will either give up and quit or learn to work within 
the system.

so true. and most power gamers i have encountered usually are not married. 
<he hee heee>  wonder if being henpecked drains the battle lust out of you 
?!?!?!?
