Dragon Age
Coward:
Then your character could have horrendous nightmares at camp as the bloodcurdling screams of those he/she condemned to an agonising death came back to haunt them.
est:
Pfff, as if they wouldn't already be screaming while they writhe on the ground, unable to get up. Or when they are trapped in a crushing prison while Alistair is slashing them and Leliana is feathering them with arrows and Morrigan is electrocuting their testicles and I am doing my darnedest to set them on fire.

Sometimes I don't even have to scout ahead, as Alistair has Survival skills and can detect mobs. And when I cast the spell(s) It's not like they don't try to get up and run out to attack me if they can resist the knockdown.

You must have more luck than I do with the AI; when I do that stuff there's often a lot of wall-humping involved or NPCs changing their mind about which caster they should be attacking halfway through the charge and thus never getting a chance attack anyone. In my experience, doing what you do demonstrably breaks scripts a fair amount of scripts.
I should clarify something though: I've never really been of the opinion that broken tactics are the fault of the player. I usually just avoid them because they make the game easier and I typically don't want to do that because I'm freakishly good at video games and if anything wish 90% of them were harder. Too many games can be defined by a pretty narrow set of best practices. But from a philosophical standpoint, I figure that stuff is the designer's fault.

Shale's a chick, guys. Which reminds me, make sure you have Shale in your party in the boss fight at the end of the dwarf part or you miss important back story, an entire map, and some good loots.

Dude, don't spoil that, it's pretty funny when you first find out.
