[QUOTE="Magnus, post: 28708, member: 588"] VERY well put Mr. Vargas. your post amounts to what, to my mind, is the best argument for only getting one 5' adjustment per round thus far. i quite agree. any reservations i may have had about this issue have been very neatly put to bed. well done. as a side issue: i still maintain that retroactive AoOs for the most part, are only retroactive from the player's POV and not from the character's. that withdrawing from combat, with the intention to do more than simply withdraw, provkes the AoO during the planning stage (on the part of the [B]character[/B]) not in the execution stage. shifting his focus away from his opponent momentarily, thereby creating an opening that allows the AoO. it certainly isn't a perfect fit-every-situation explanation, but it fits most of the time, and is a lot more sensible, than wondering how doing something away from your opponent can allow him to hit u, way back when.
