Why do people dislike ironsworns combat?

Post Body

Total honesty here, ironsworn is my favorite rpg. Or starforged, the flavour doesn’t matter haha. But from time to time I see in general ttrpg threads people sometimes say combat is the worst part of the system but leave no reason as to why.

If you’re of those people please fill me in. It’s just curiosity because the combat is one of the main reasons why I love ironsworn. Being able to have combat be so fluid and open is amazing. I much prefer it over rolling a dice back and fourth trying to hit a target until it’s ho bar is 0.

Thanks for any upcoming conversations!

But sometimes you want to place minis on a map and roll for initiative.

I do love a good minis. Can't lie.

Isn't that a double edged sword though? If you engage your imagination sufficiently, a spider could totally start a forest fire and a boar could totally cocoon you.

Mechanically, the rules certainly don't discourage it.
