[QUOTE="nazzguk, post: 4506280, member: 71648"] My first post for some help :) This board has been a great resource for information getting used to 4th Ed and I was hoping to get some help... I am starting a new Campaign and I want my players to run into some mindless constructs early on. The constructs are focused on reaching certain locations and have the ability to knock targets prone with one of their attacks. The way I want to play them is if anyone is in the way of the most direct path to their objective they attempt to knock the target prone and then shift into the square on top of the person. As soon as they have a free line towards their destination they will attack anyone close, and then move closer to their objective. I am having a hard time finding what is allowed for prone and occupied spaces. If Construct (standing) and PC (knocked prone) occupy the same square will the construct get negative to hit? or penalties on their attacks? If the PC is in an occupied square they can shift to and adjectent open square as part of their move action to stand. I am then assuming they will draw an oppurtunity attack when performing the stand action though? Feel free to go, well you didn't look to hard bonehead read page X of book YYY.... This is my first time behind the screen in a long time (2nd Ed) and I still got some work to do on 4th Ed. Thanks in advance for the help :) Nazzguk [/QUOTE]
