My basic query is: can you do Sneak Attack damage to an enemy that is prone? The book states that a prone creature takes a -4 penalty to AC while prone -- since lying down wouldn't affect armor's ability to protect you, then this has to be some sort of penalty to your ability to dodge blows, i.e., a Dex penalty, right? What I'm trying to do is build a character who will use a trip attack to get an enemy prone, and then Sneak Attack him with his extra d6's while he's down. Am I headed in the right direction, or am I twisting rules?
