(5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

Huh, maybe I did go twice? You said he moved down toward the caravan and then I waited for a bunch of people to post but when only half the group posted and the mercs saw the ‘barricade’, I assumed people were waiting on someone to pull the trigger on the ambush proper. So, when someone finally attacked, I assumed that started “round 1” of the ambush and I could go again.

No, Round 1 was supposed to start right when you (sort of & unintentionally) derailed it by going for a social encounter instead of an Ambush.

Look, it's fine. I'd rather move forward than backtrack, but I bet that there's at least a few other players who would like to have moved twice from where I put them! (If you're one of those - sorry about that, but let's just move on, okay?)

Wow, @Hriston. Crit with Disadvantage. You don't see that every day.

I noticed that I didn't put numbers on the two Mercs or the two Cultists. Fixed it for next round, just in case anyone has trouble telling them apart.

1 in 400, baby!

@Tonguez - I'm not sure I understand the specifics of your post. Did you dash? (That would require 2 successful checks, one for your "safe" movement, and one for your Dash Action.). For Shade-9 to get to S-13, he'd be moving 55 feet!

In case there's confusion, I'll give you some advice, so it's more obvious how I see it. It looks to me like you can avoid any rocks by moving straight along row14. Aywin's "paddle attack" can be used to "neutralize" that H4 as you pass by, and then you'd be (almost) safely able to Dash forward, though I'd recommend you stop with Shade-9 in P14. Then the next H4 (U14V15) can't quite reach you, and you have a moment to breathe. Does that make sense?

You definitely don't need to follow that advice, but I give it so that you might have a better idea of the whole thing, going forward.
