[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 6217887, member: 63"] I was DMing. An explosion knocks over a building and panics people so they flee into the streets. Two towers on opposite sides of a public square each had a group of snipers who planned to shoot at civilians once enough people had emerged. The party spots one group of snipers and they climb the inside of the tower. They try to breach the roof through a ladder and trap door, but they get forced back down, stuck in a bit of a stalemate. One PC (himself a bit of a sniper) climbs out a window and intends to attack the guys on the roof from behind, distracting them so his team can come up the ladder. He's about to climb over the lip of the roof when he gets shot from behind by the snipers on the other tower. Per the plan, the rest of the PCs head up and attack the first group of snipers, but the PC sniper just sits down on a handy gargoyle and starts trading fire with the second group of snipers. Because of the sounds of combat, the enemies on roof one don't even realize the sniper PC is less than 10 feet away from them. I just kinda like the mental image of this extremely long-range battle going on while a melee is going on right on the other side of a low wall. [/QUOTE]
