What I said was the the D&D rules state that you must target vital areas, In My Opinion the shins could qualify but don't in this caseThen you have a different DM style to me, I insist upon it for the simple reason that the rogue has chosen to try and slow the enemy rather than deal damage.I would mention to the player that the shins are not considered Vital and if he argued I would ignore him, if he accepted that his character would be smart enough to aim for throat to 'silence him' then I would allow sneak attackEDIT: I don't mean that the Rogue MUST target the throat, just that the Rogue would know where to target and not target a leg when their are better places.EDIT 2: I am curious How you explain Eyestalks as limbs? I believe in a D&D sense, limbs are arms and legs, things used for reach, maybe I am wrong and I would like to know</blockquote>
