[QUOTE="IceBear, post: 519984, member: 1118"] Hmmmm, I guess myself and a few other DMs were thinking too much in the past editions on this one. The first few times someone cast the spell, I missed the images in different squares part so I just rolled for the random miss chance like in the old days. By the time I noticed we were doing it wrong, it was kind of ingrained (and no one had tried closing their eyes :p). This makes mirror image less powerful (which is good). You still have that flanking crap though :( I personally wouldn't allow it, but logically you should, because if that image doesn't flank you then you know it's an image. I guess what I'll do is allow someone to move the image into flanking position, but the defender will determine (via defending himself or someother BS reason :D) that the image is an image, so all that using a 2nd level spell for flanking will do is reduce the number of images by one :) IceBear [/QUOTE]
