(I'm totally honored.  The Man responded to one of my posts!)

My group tends to be into magically enhanced warriors.  Be it in GURPS, or 
Shadowrun, or dnd fighter/sorcs, we often have a couple of warrior types 
with a handfull of spells, or wizards who can swing a blade or squeeze a 
trigger.  Given time to get their spells up, those types can often beat a 
straight fighter/warrior/combat guy.  Without time to prep the advantage is 
usually to the non-magial, but you can only ambush the posse so many times.
