Howdy.
This might have been mentioned many moons ago (too lazy to look), but what are people's feelings about charming someone into surrendering? Is it acceptable? Kosher? Advisable? Scrub-like?

Totally valid strategy... since you're taking an equal risk that they don't P and you are giving them a better gesture than a blank -

Yup, completely valid.
They know they are taking as risk putting a P on one (or both) of their hands, and if you call their bluff, they deserve to lose.

Okay - anyone ever forced someone NOT to surrender to get the kill instead?

Is it just me, or did I ask something that to most people was obvious?
Okay - has anyone ever encountered an opportunity where you expected to get charmed into a 'P', and used it to their advantage?

I can't say as I've ever "expected" to get a P. There have been times I thought they may try it, but since it happens fairly infrequently I do not ever plan on it. It's merely a bonus if it happens!

Derfel, in my last battle with qnang5284 (#60216) i charmed him to stab so he can't surrender and can't set the target of planned 'cure heavy wounds' in this hand (pre-last round). In the next round he have only choice of double-p and die of 'wfp' or get 'dfpw' and live yet another round; after that he gets 'wfpd' with no choices.

The merits of this and other alternate charm gestures are discussed in this thread. |
