      But aren't you saying that the only way to resolve combat encounters is via combat? I always saw morale as being an alterantive to combat, and something that allowed for tactics to become useful.
      In fact, one of the main goals of any given combat (just as Sun Tzu) is to actually find a weakness in your opponent and expoit it. Many of the greatest battles have been won, not because they were superior in battle, but because they knew where to strike and that those they were facing were still...

      Ok, you have a drow running at top speed into a cavern which the party haven't explored yet at all. What is chasing him down going to get you?
      A throng of drow, all of them with arrows pointed right at your face. If your players are silly enough to walk into that scenario they deserve that scenario to play out and you're doing them a disservice by not allowing this to unfold.
      Besides, there is no need for it to be a total wipe out for the party. The drow have the PCs at a distinct...

      You need something for the inexperienced DMs but don't make it to prescriptive so it can be tailored for different styles of play.

      For me, the biggest barrier to constructing interesting adventures quickly has always been managing monster challenge level. The new concepts for bounded accuracy have more or less fixed that. If I feel the most exciting adventure for my low level party is a highly dangerous encounter with an elder dragon, I would like to have tools to make that hard, but achievable and rewarding for them without having to completely recalculate its stats or stack a ludicrous series of modifiers on them.
