[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 9277865, member: 29398"] Which also seems off in terms of realism, as if the Slaad is so much bigger can't it just push the PC out of its way when it un-squeezes to its usual size? Were it me, I'd rule that when a creature is squeezing itself by choice (rather than being forced to by a confining environment) its reach extends to what it could normally reach if it wasn't squeezed, but if it uses that reach it is now un-squeezed; and that un-squeezing counts as a free action. Oh, and squeezing by choice wouldn't confer disadvantage on the squeezer's attacks unless the intent is to remain squeezed afterwards. Again unrealistic, though true by strict rules. Bleah. Yeah, the rules might allow this but there's no way in hell I'd let it happen in practice. If they want to try a conga-line attack like that they're going to be tripping over each other in the doorway. [/QUOTE]
