No, not within 60' of where Seneia is standing.

Is it alright if I wait declaring my actions until the guard has acted? Where he will be after his action has a rather big impact on what Seneia is able to do.

Sure

Uh... so I missed my chance to act, after all?

I wouldn't assume so; I was jumping the gun by posting what I'll be doing next round. Merlin hasn't said that round 2 is over.

This is tricky and it's my fault but it's impossible for everyone to get to the guard through a 5' corridor.

Merlin, do the guard wear metal armor? :D

Rufio can now enter the room and attack? or is Szent still in the way?

You can pass through an allies square.

No matter what happens, I will not laugh louder today than I did at this.

I'm going to have to break protocol and draw a map. Bear with me...

Damn. How do I upload an image?

It has to be hosted elsewhere, and then you can reference the link.

Here's my step-by-step example of how I do it.

Thanks! I can honestly say I would never have worked that out on my own.

Are those squares on the latest map 5-ft squares? It's not clear to me whether Rufio can get to Matilda or not, assuming he has to take another aisle over to go around Alanya, Feylinde and Seneia.

Yes I have a little key saying they are 5' squares.

Oops! Yeah, I see the key now. Sorry 'bout that! And it's my monitor's fault: I was only seeing the big squares and not the small ones, which made me wonder how F,A, and S2 were all sharing the same space.

SO now that that's cleared up it looks like there's nothing Rufio can do but Dash.

Going back through the 1.0 Introduction thread, I'm wondering: are Miranda and Matilda the same person (female elf caster)?

Ok, I completely remembered wrong and thought Matilda was the name of our "orphanage mistress"! So now I'm confused.

If you go back to Intro you'll see she's intermittently called both. I went back to correct this but missed a couple. I'll do it again.

Name is and always should have been Matilda. My memory gets fogged too when playing over several months.
