[QUOTE="JamesonCourage, post: 5714654, member: 6668292"] I'm down. The narrative remains the same either way. Troll knocks Sir Billingsley down. He did. It went: (1) Troll's turn, Sir Billingsley is knocked prone. (2) Party's turn, they attack troll, pushing it back. (3) Sir Billingsley's turn, when he stands up and rushes. Spirit Lion Totem Barbarian class feature (they lose fast movement to get it): No foul here. Um, you just add that in when the troll smacks him. "The troll hits you, sending you flying back and knocking you down, your "face awash in blood" from the force of its blow." I didn't feel like I had to keep track of the description for you, since that's easily added. The mechanics keeping up is the hard part. No, we don't. He's not in the 4e narrative either (that is, he surged and got up, thus his wounds aren't going to kill him). [I]This is mechanics, not narrative.[/I] Narratively, they're the same. ... I've described exactly what I've meant multiple times in this thread and the Healing Surge thread that this spawned off of. The last time I posted definitions of a word, you told me to "man up" and use the words you liked instead. Your definitions didn't fit with me then, and the English language usage I've been using this entire time (that is, the definition of narrative) doesn't fit what you've been using from the start. Two days into this thread, I said: And, in the same day, in this thread, I said: I've got other quotes that are similar within the first five pages alone if you want them. But, look at that last paragraph, after I've clearly explained what I'm talking about. I wanted to know if you would even acknowledge what I'm trying to talk about. Do you know what your very next post in the thread is? Here it is: I said this two days after you started this thread (we're now about nine days in). You completely ignored it when I stated it extremely clearly. And you never commented on my above quote later on, either. I wonder why. As always, play what you like :) [/QUOTE]
