So, I might make it similar to concealment where I give a flank chance, probably 5% per number of images available minus one.Then again, the explanation of Mirror Image is kind of silly anyway. If the spell caster is not moving (such as on a horse or he just plain is standing still), then you just attack the immobile one. Err, no, the spell doesn't allow that. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
