[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 3779997, member: 13966"] [b]Warren the halfling, HP 18/33, AC 23 (t 18, ff 19)[/b] Warren follows up his previous attack with another that would hopefully drive home into the hobgoblin's vitals, shifting position first so that his sword will be more threatening to the hobgoblin's dodge attempts.... Shadows swirl about Warren in a pattern that make it difficult to see where his sword is pointed, but without the body-obscuring effect of his earlier trick.... And in an instant, his blade darts past the hobgoblin's ribcage to soft, vulnerable tissues.... [I](hopefully!)[/I] [I]([U]now[/U] he'll change stances to Island of Blades, so any foe that Warren and an ally are adjacent to is considered flanked. If that hobgoblin drops from the attack, Warren will move forward carefully to square O-29 to face the other hobgoblin swordsman in melee. Warren's Reflex save when entering the entanglement is at +11.)[/I] [sblock=attack]Warren lashes out with Sapphire Nightmare Blade, at +12 since the hobgoblin is effectively flanked, for 1d4+5+1d6+1d6 damage from sneak attack and SNB. His Concentration skill check to use SNB effectively is at +8. If the skill check succeeds, then the hobgoblin is flat-footed against Warren's attack. If the Concentration check does not match or exceed the hobgoblin's Armor Class, then Warren's attack roll takes a -2 penalty and he does not deal the last d6 of damage. If by chance the hobgoblin falls to Siobhan first, [I]again[/I], then Warren moves up to attack the hobgob at P-29 instead of just moving next to him, and in that case sneak attack might not apply nor does the +2 to-hit from flanking. The sneak attack damage will only apply then if the Concentration check succeeds. Warren will still be changing stances to Island of Blades though, this time, even if he doesn't get any use out of it yet.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
