I can then Move into the grass, which grants me concealment, which allows me make a Stealth roll as I end my move. One point of this is so that if someone comes walking around the corner next turn, that person may not see me (he gets a Perception roll vs. my last Stealth roll).If, instead, someone had been standing there who watched me go into the grass...I want to agree with you, but a strict reading makes me say that I could make a Stealth check in that instance. The guard sees you out in the open. You take a Move action. ending in the tall grass, which grants concealment, which allows you to make a Stealth roll against the guard's Perception roll. "The rogue sprints across the lawn diving into the tall grass and out of sight. The guard sees only the swaying of the grass. He knows the pesky thief is there somewhere -- he stares intently." The PHB says Perception cannot be retried if failed, unless the situation changes. I'd say you remain hidden from that guard as long as you stay still and he doesn't move closer to you. If you move through the grass and try to remain hidden, the guard will get another Perception roll to spot you.</blockquote>
