[QUOTE="Paul Strack, post: 4402372, member: 71340"] All right, since you seem to have accepted that, let me ask the following question: 1) Do you need cover or concealment from all enemies in order to be able to hide? My answer differs depending on the level of benefits you wanted to get. [B]To gain TWYCS[/B], I would say yes, you need cover or concealment against every enemy, otherwise the one against which you are not concealed can reveal your location as a free action. [B]To gain a Combat Advantage[/B], I would say no, you only need cover or concealment against the target of your attack. I think both answers agree with the RAW. If you accept that, it gives you many situations where you can get a combat advantage without getting TWYCS, and it may be worth discussing whether there are other conditions that grant combat advantage but not TWYCS.
