I'm gonna post shortly, explaining what the mud is. Been a bizzy day at work.
[sblock=ooc]So is everyone agreed to have Sitha scout? How far behind is the rest of the party going to wait?[/sblock]
Bringing this across from the IC thread:
How big is the area we're in? Chaihana will win exactly zero prizes for sneaking around, so she's not going scouting. I'd prefer to wait in cover somewhere until we know what's around. But, if Sitha and "Skoldik" are scouting and get attacked, I'd like to be able to get to them within a round or at most two. So if they can scout without getting too far from the rest of us, I don't want to be moving; but if it's a large area then following them as discretely as possible seems like a better idea to me.
The Keep Ruins stand on a small hill. Pretty much open space and zero cover on the hill approaching the Keep. Keeping a move action or a double move
(25-50 feet) behind the two will require you to follow them up the hill.
There is cover at the bottom of the hill in the form of rubble and debris but it would be several rounds to the keep.
