[QUOTE="doktorstick, post: 307912, member: 4485"] There's an example, I believe, in one of the books that talks about Lidda meeting someone in an ally. They both delay their actions waiting until someone else goes, to see how they react. Would something like this apply? The orcs and humans met, initiative was determined, and then it is just delays and refocusing. What this means is KD's interpretation is correct. Let's assume the order of initiative is C, B, A. C delays. B delays. A attacks. C now takes his delayed action. B now takes his delayed action. If nothing happens in the first few rounds, a few rofuci :) may have occurred. It also means that after a few rounds, no one is flat-footed anymore--they are expected something to happen. This, however, can get complicated. If the conversation went on for several rounds, just determine initiative by order of Dexterity (from fefocus) with (in the example above) A acting first in a non-surprise round. /ds [/QUOTE]
