For his campaign its really only an advantage to the enemies since I am the only melee player. For my campaign is has usually helped out the party more since nearly everyone in melee.I like the idea of the Flanking rule urging characters to move in smart ways and make more intelligent movement choices. Moving to flank becomes important for melee and moving to avoid being flanked becomes important for ranged. We also add to the Flanking rule my allowing movement around a target to provoke an AoO, so you can't run straight up to the enemy and then circle around, you have to move around and approach smartly...or take the potential hit to get a good set up going.We had an excellent combat encounter last month with a Shield Guardian and a bunch of Animated Armors. Just about everyone was flanked at some point, but as the DM I felt that the attention to position and repositioning of the characters was something the table enjoyed and enhanced the encounter.</blockquote>
