Adam, i'm sure you exaggerate, but still - scary!
I only have one player like that (or more accuratley, one player willing to play a character like that?) in my on-again-off-again Iron Heroes group... but it seems to be that it only takes one.
Case in point: So we're in the delve to capture this orc chieftain, so the mages can interrogate him, when we fight past a few orc warriors just to stumble into this big, hollowed out passage filled with a couple dozen goblins... unarmed goblins.
So i intimidate them, the greenskins go running for the darkest corners, and i suggest we head out the other door before they recover their courage... ...but as i'm heading for the door, my trouble player launches a sneak attack, one of the other players joins him and just like that we're in a fight with the goblins.
Except it wasn't a fight - it was a massacre.
I don't know what the GM intended, but after that session we started wondering whether goblins might just be nothing more than just baby orcs...
So - scary!
