[QUOTE="Setanta, post: 1807995, member: 2183"] Yeah, that's my fault. I did the teleport on the fly because it was the only way I could see for him to get some time to heal up and remanifest important buffs. However, I hadn't really planned for his retreat, so I didn't have a good place for him to go. Like I said, I'm new to DMing high level stuff. I think this is the first time I've DM'd something where scry and teleport were available and used. Diverting the teleport would have been nice, but he didn't know that power. True, but he actually wanted to be found. He needed to kill one of the PC's. I forgot about that power. I'm not sure if he knew it, though. I remember when preparing I thought about giving him some cool psionic scry defenses, but I think when I realized he would *want* to be found by this particular group, I scrapped them all. Damaging the scrier would have been good though. Is there a psionic equivalent to wall of force? It would be a moot point if I'd done the right thing and made psionics different, but since I didn't, all the force effects that aren't nuked by AMF wouldn't have helped. I don't see how I could have avoided the roll initiative situation, though. He knew they were coming, but they knew they'd be teleporting into a hostile situation. I don't see that as a surprise situation for either side, so initiative needs to be rolled. He rolled badly. [/QUOTE]
