What strategies do you use while playing Oblivion?

Here are a few of mine:
If I'm on a quest with other characters, I just charge ahead with the quest and leave them to their own resources while I get on to the goal. I find this leaves far more of the followers alive in the end and I don't inadvertently kill any of them when they charge recklessly into my line of fire.

When I'm exploring a cave or ruin, I always take the first turn on the right and keep going to the right. This way I don't get lost so much and often arrive at the goal quickly. It's all right if I reach a dead end and have to turn back; I just take the next right.

If I'm supposed to protect someone on a quest, I tell the person to "wait here" while I go in and clear out the dangerous creatures, then come back and get the person I'm protecting.

Spoiler
Go right up to Mankar Camoran and kill him immediately I enter his hall with my deadliest spell or weapon before he can start his rant.

Well, since my characters are all DiD nowadays, not to mention stacked with restrictions, their strategies and approaches vary dramatically.

But there's one thing they all agree on, wherever possible, they go solo. No-one to blow their stealthy approach or get in their line of fire.
