PeterR and intothatdarkenss, you guys both have valid points. I have to see how this group meshes with each other and see which method works for this group. Two players are from one gaming group and two others are from their own gaming group. The 5th player is my daughter who is very used to my GMing pace. This is the first time these folks will be in one party, two of them are new to RM, the other three have played before. So the take away I get from this is....
Limit the beer intake so they are clear headed.
