Any chance of MB alerts you when you go too far? Like "hey dude, you put a lv 10 power on a lv 1 monster, its gonna be a TPK".

This was also been mentioned on Enworld forums.

Though you'll still be in shakey territory if you don't follow the general guidline of only elites and solos should be able to attack more than once every turn. Or start loading down all your monsters with Immediate Interrupt attacks.

That's the kind of knowledge MB should have as a tooltip, maybe.

I'm very lazy (and have no much time available) to leave my PC get my hardcover DMG and check it everytime :D

It depends on how close in level the monsters are that you are swapping between.
