In this case, the fighters would have had to KNOW you were coming, waited until you acted and THEN taken their actions. Their actions in this case certainly don't sound logical to me. How did they know that only the monk would run in? What would have happened if you laid waste to them after you opened the door with a knock spell? Their delayed actions never would have occurred. What they did is a VERY RISKY gamble to take for a defensive position. It certainly smacks of foresight or meta-gaming. I suppose the real clarification we need to understand more is "Did the monk's movement get interrupted by the attacks from the guards?" If Yes, then someone didn't play by the rules....if No, then the monk was flat out stupid for running into a room full of waiting fighters..... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-P" title="Stick out tongue    :-P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":-P" /></blockquote>
