This caused meta-gaming to ensue whereas the players took advantage of the situation OOC and moved the golem to a position more likely to do less damage. We all would do this, but what should have happened was the declaration of the DM, what he was going to do and attack, then the AOO should have happened, then the DM declares again what he is NOW going to do as a result of being shifted, then he should have rolled his attack and damage rolls. It sounds like as some of the other posters stated that the DM jumped the gun a bit and the players took full advantage of it to their benefit. As a DM if I did this, I'd have to allow what happened as a mistake on my part to favor the players and remember not to roll prior to the AOO again where they could see it at least (that's why DM screens are nice sometimes).</p></blockquote><p></p>
