Rolling up my Knight wannabe warrior based on Monmouth's advice, and not having a clue what I was doing, I got inducted, and just getting beat on by Shadow. Spaceballs is right there...evil wins because good is dumb. So, the leaders seem not to die so much, I figure the world's much better off if die before them, so I made it my life's goal to follow along with Tallanvor and rescue him from everyone. Needless to say, lots of unneeded deaths.

Secondly, from when warriors had counter (and I can't remember how it goes, but the gist gets through) -

Assassin steps out of the shadows.
Assassin attempts to assassinate you!
You counter assassin's attack!
Assassin +++ ASSASSINATES +++ assassin!
Assassin is dead!
Assassin's corpse falls to the ground, dead.

I look around going....WTF!?
