Technically our initiative is:

Htebazile
Gimli
Duriel
C.L. Eric
omega/Miss T
wonk
Sir K
Bing/Lloan
GOBLINS

I have no objection to those present taking action. Hteb I believe specifcally decided to delay to give Miss Take a chance to kill something with her nifty shuriken.

True. omega will do the same, of course.

If Miss Take gets to attack, she wants to warn everyone that she's been drinking to dull the pain.

But, WTH, she's going to attack anyway.

Spoiler:
18+8 vs ac
5+8 damage

Gimli as usual is delighted to wait for Miss Take.

Of course. As confirmation, both modifiers are +8, same as in post 7431 that she said was SF with the shuriken.

Vertically first. At least, that's how the goblin went around it.

If I were within 5 squares of the spot I would need to charge to, can I charge BB9 even if I can't see BB9 at the moment I start the charge?
I believe you can. See below.

Quote:
Irrelevant if the previous answer is no If I said I were charging BB9 but was not within 5 squares (my speed) of BB9, what happens? (a) Could I substitute a different action? (b) "charge" 5 squares but then be unable to attack? (c) Do nothing: announcing the impossible "charge" uses the action?
A charge action is a move action in which you make a basic melee attack at the end of your move. So you would move 5 squares and then make a basic melee attack. If no hostile creature happened to be in range to attack at the end of your move, you would simply end your move and attack a floor tile or something.

Miss Take throws her shuriken at BB2's neck. BB2 suddenly seems to be having difficulty keeping his head on straight.



He manages to run around for a few seconds before realizing that he's dead.
