In yesterdays session, a fighter was in close combat with a troll, while a rogue fired at the troll from a distance.
He missed on his shot, and since the troll and the fighter were in melee, I ruled that if the rogues attack roll was high enough to hit the fighter, he would. THe fighter was hit by the bolt.
The question is, did I rule by the rules? Or even if it didn't, do you guys out there feel that I could rule that? The fighter was not providing cover for the troll..
