[QUOTE="GlassEye, post: 6093993, member: 40413"] [sblock=Scorpius & Scott]We'll keep the letters & information gained as played. It makes little to no difference whether Denizel deciphered the messages or waited and had someone translate: the information is still the same and it hasn't affected the course of current action. Ride: Scorpius, the casting spells while mounted section of the above link says a DC 16 concentration check (DC 15 + spell level) is required if the mount is running. Also, in this case spellcasting occurs after the mount has moved 100 ft. so Denizel would be 80 feet away from the rearmost bandit and out of range for 'command'. Scott, distance measured was based on a horse's run of 200 ft. If your mount only makes a double move, that's 100 ft and you can be no closer than row 37 (not on the map, yet). Ranged attacks happen when the mount has taken half of its total move so Vincenzo would be able to fire his arrow when 180 ft away from bandit 1. So, your actions would be as follows: 1. DC 5 Ride (to guide with knees; free action) 2. Ranged attack at -4 + range increment (by the way, I don't see any ranged weapons other than dagger listed on Vincenzo's sheet) 3. Sheathe bow (move action) And that's it. Note that one can draw a weapon as part of a 'regular' move. I take that to mean as part of moving your base speed and not any of the other special actions listed as 'move actions'. A search of discussions on this topic support this as well.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
