Bear had a doctor appointment follow up and that sapped 2 hours, so there will likely be a brief pause until tomorrow

That's fine, hope you're doing well!
I was afraid you were waiting for Cat's move, she will stay where she is. Good idea from Kashtan, that could have ended badly!

[Wofl]

Got it posted, you are engaged with the enemy now.

Well, so much for our surpise. Good work from Ashley though! I'm glad she wasn't shot. Summon Nixie and make her flank Mr. Harvey! Let's see how this goes.
So what happens if the bandit fires into the battle? I assume he will. Is there some flatly distributed chance that any creature involved is hit or can only those who are in line of sight be hit? Right now Cat is obscured by the troll.

Another question - if one of us flanks everyone has advantage. That means Cat's Reckless Attack will provide no additional benefit. Or is there something like double andvantage?

[Wofl]

Advantage does not stack.

The man on the wall would need line of sight and there is at least partial cover. Since his move ended with a dash, he couldn't fire this turn. He could guess but shooting through a tree is poorly advised. I'd have to look into that. I would give you full cover if you are on the other side of a large creature.

Flanking works for those who are in opposite positions, you must be roughly on the opposite side of at least one other ally. A third who is 90 degree off would not get flank but I am not too picky about that if you had unused movement because there's no penalty to move to that position as long as you don't disengage. If you say you flanked, I would take it to mean you moved to a flanking position and nove you.

I didn't know that.
I assumed as soon as 2 people attacked someone from roughly opposite positions anyone else joining the fun also had advantage. So if 3 people attack a creature in a 60° angle forming an equilateral triangle, none of them gets advantage?

Yulya cast Shield of Faith on me, my AC is 15 now!

That's my interpretation of Vanilla but I would definitely say if you have them surrounded then you catch them off guard which is like flanking in this game.

Okay, thanks for that I had the note and if he had actually hit you I would have hopefully read it.
