[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 8162212, member: 11"] Yes. They tell me how/where they want to move and I either move for them or explain the consequences of moving (since it is not always clear on their end). So it might go like this: Player B: I want to start my rage as bonus action and move towards the main hobgoblin and attack. Me: Unfortunately, he is a little too far away to reach on a regular move, so you have to dash to get to him, but then no attack. Player B: Ok, then I will move towards the big rock and ready an action to attack the first hobgoblin that approaches me. Player R: Can I leap down from where I was hiding above the archway and reach the rest of the party? Me: You could, but getting past the hobgoblins means at least one will get an opportunity attack. Player R: I'll risk it but choose me a route with the least opportunity attacks! Me: Done. Player D: I move in and attack the ones on the left flank with my quarterstaff. Me: You get there will no issues. Do you want to end in this box or this box? (points) And so on. The hardest part (biggest delay) is when I have to shift the cameras mid encounter because a running combat changes the location some. Thus why I went with two cameras on the mat, one is an above shot that gets a wide area and one is a close shot just above table level that I move around the board as well. On my end I pin the overheard shot, the players usually pin that as well, but the close up shot is a screen share. [/QUOTE]
