If you move and have either cover or concealment, you can try to use Stealth. As long as your attack comes before the movement portion of your turn, there is nothing to prevent a character from using Stealth after attacking.This is how I'd judge it (I am very prone to house rules).Being prone is similar enough to having cover that I'd allow a character to use it for stealth, as long as opponents are not too close (withing reach of a reach weapon for your size category seems reasonable - it is the angle of observation that matters, and taller creatures have both a better visual angle and longer reach. So 2x normal reach).The big question is if "falling prone" or a 5 ft. step is considered movement. Since Stealth is a part of movement, this is vital. I'd say it is - the rogue does need the help.If you make a full attack, you'd get Sneak Attack bonuses on all your attacks (all the attacks are part of the same action). But there is a downside - opponents will be fairly certain of your position as you most likely won't have moved more than 5 ft. Just moving to your last known position is likely to bring you out of cover.</blockquote>
