[Full]: D&D 7th level game, 4 players

OK, I posted. I actually checked in a couple times, but there really wasn't much for me to contribute. As for the other players participation, if you guys want to wait until they come back (we are fighting the big dragon already) thats fine with me or if you want to drive on and have us post for them, that's fine too.

Also, I think I moved as far as I could and still cast the spell, If for some reason I miscalculated, let me know and I will change the square I move to. God my brain is really fried right now...

If it takes two rounds to heal then the druid will move as far as possible and cast produce flame in the first round and move and heal in the second. taklinn will need as much help as he can get, I am sure...if he is to survive!

Taklinn will power attack with the first attack only if that is allowable.

I saw lorenz taking a 5' step back to make room for the dire wolf. Sorry if that was unclear.

I have asked that players post at least twice a day, so its totally fine for you to proxy.

As for lorenz and the dire wolf, the problem, GE, is that lorenz is now AFTER the dire wolf in initiative order (since lorenz held his action until after the wolves in order to be able to flank). Thus, the wolf has to move first and lorenz second.
If it was a PC instead of a wolf, you could hold your action until after lorenz. But the wolf is an animal with an intelligence of 2. Although it is smart enough to flank, its not able to do higher order metagame thinking like holding its move .

I think Lorenz would hop back on his turn to put some distance between him and the dragon and thereby let the wolf in...the wolf will have to wait until next round (lucky dragon). That is how I read it. Does that seem plausible?

Okay, so wolf 1 attacks, wolf2 does nothing (waits till space next turn)... what does lorenz do?

 

[Thordain]

Now that I've given it some more thought, I'm going to revise my stance on the wolf holding its action. Although its not smart enough to specifically wait for character A to do action B, it is certainly smart enough to see that there is no room for it to attack, and for it to wait until a space opens up.
So I'm going to rule that its okay for the wolf to delay its action until after Lorenz. ... be aware that to draw and fire your bow, you will have to drop either your sword or your light stone on the ground since sheathing is a move equivalent action
I'm going to delay adjucating until tomorrow since its kind of late and I am tipsy Hopefully page and KTT will have signed in by then and can post their moves, otherwise I'll go with GE's proxy moves.

 

[GoldenEagle]

I would have had Lorenz drop the light stone, sheath the sword (move equiv.) and draw his bow after stepping back to fire into melee.

I am more than happy to wait though. Either way I'll check back several times today.

Round 2 adjucated. KTT and Page, are you guys still with us? Haven't heard from you two in a while...

perhaps your cool picture of the dragon scared them off, I know it made me pee my pants.
