Hi Joe-

"...How not? Please elaborate..."

If one thug gets shot and then the other three stop attacking, lay down, and interlace their fingers behind their heads on command...there is no reason to kill them followed by the shoveling and shutting-up thing.

If the other thugs continue to fight after the first one was shot, well then continued shooting (and even speedy reloads) is absolutely in order.

OK, I agree with that. Of course, depending on the goblins, you may have to be watching your back for the rest of your days. Like I said to Gritty, each situation has to be evaluated seperately. And things like this offer very few good choices, if any. Unfortunately.
