[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 9542799, member: 42856"] Let's reprint the battlemap from paragraph 366. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1735524522847.png"]390632[/ATTACH] Given the Awareness of the party, Trixie will go first (8), then the Assassin (7), then every other member of the party (6). I didn't mention it earlier, but you can't attack diagonally. I see basically three ways we can handle this fight. 1. Trixie acts first, so she can move without incurring an attack of opportunity, so that the Assassin has to use his action to move toward the nearest character. Since there would be ties, a die roll would determine the result. Assassin would have to move one step to the left to attack either Winny, Esmeralda and Salvia, so this is the most probable outcome. There is a 25% chance that the Assassin would go after Trixie, being locked in a continual chase afterwards (since Trixie would back out), while he'd be peppered by Salvia's arrows and Esmeralda's magic, while Winny would... stand around doing cheerleaders move (that's what being a Leader class role means, doesn't it?). But in the most probable outcome, we'd have a free round for everyone. 2. Trixie goes into full defend mode, so the with her acrobatic bonus the opponent would need to roll 6 or under on 3d6 to kill her. It's a 9.26% chances of dying each round. Then the rest of the group would attack (except Winny who has no ranged attack and would be wise not to get into close combat with this particular enemy), and well, we just need to last two rounds. 3. Trixie attacks twice, but she does 1d6 damage, so she can't kill the Assassin before he acts, with a 41.67% chance of killing her, and with a good chance of him being finished off in the same round. How will we do? If there is a more sensible course of action, don't hesitate to suggest it! Trixie's life is at stake! [/QUOTE]
