I like the idea of a fight being close or ranged, but I think it should be an option that all players can set. i.e. The defender and attacker would each have a ste of tactics they use.

I also think that choosing (for example) ranged should make your ranged attacks stronger, but make you more vulnerable to a melee attack that may sneak through.

It would make for more entertaining combat reports too if we could 'see' the players move close and further away from eachother.
