[QUOTE="Ambrus, post: 4770818, member: 17691"] I'm glad our side won the conflict in the end, but I gotta say, that last post was confusing. I think not having a battle map to reference is in part to blame. So Hobgoblin 1 was knocked down if not killed outright by Edvik's blow? So Eltyr targeted hobgoblin 1 who was already down? :erm: And yet hobgoblin 1 is somehow still standing after Eltyr's missiles strikes it? :-S Menhir was in fact fighting hobgoblin 1 and so should be adjacent to it. So hobgoblin 1 isn't actually standing anymore but is in fact dead, either from Edvik's blow or Eltyr's spell? :confused: Menhir was adjacent to the dead/not dead/dead/exploding hobgoblin1, which should be about 30-ft away from hobgoblin 2 and so out of range of its melee attack. Since hobgoblin 2 tries to run away after a melee attack and thus provokes an AoO from Berrek, but Berrek fails to harm it overmuch then the hobgoblin should succeed in putting some distance between itself and Berrek. At which point it's Menhir's turn and it'd charge the fleeing hobgoblin 2 and, according to the description of its successful strike, would succeed in killing it. So Menhir would be the only PC within range of the second hobgoblin's dead throws explosion. At least, that's my best guess as to the sequence of events based on the posted description... Clarifications would be much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
