All Combatants, please roll initiative and declare any final purchases.

[hustlertwo]

Reactionary purchases, yadda yadda yadda.

Init: [roll0]

[ZaneLaCoix]

[roll0]

And I got the following:
+10 Sell Rapier
-320 Buy Masterwork Rapier
-50 Potion of Shield of Faith +2

I'm going to wager I go first... But I'll wait for confirmation, or any changes that my opponent may have

[hustlertwo]

Nothing more for me, you can go ahead and go.

[ZaneLaCoix]

Just so we don't start out in the same square. The rest will be in spoilers until LoS is established...

Also, I wish you luck.

@RefsCan Tael move through the haystack without scattering it?
@TaelI'm not sure you can move through the haystack, and I don't see how you get to L11 without moving through it. Is there a precedent?
just a sec

@Madtinker

Yes, you can also hide in them, unless they are scattered.

@Tael

No LoS


@Fiorella

LoS established as Tael enters M6. Fiorella is in A1. Both have actions ready that trigger.

[hustlertwo]

What determines the order the actions trigger? I'll go ahead and do mine regardless, I'm just curious.

MM away!

[roll0]

[hustlertwo]

Lucky roll. So, is that the end of his turn, then?

I don't think it matters. Neither of our actions would conflict with either of ours.
Your up.

[hustlertwo]

Magic Missile was so nice, let's do it twice:

[roll0]

[hustlertwo]

I think that's you at -1, then. And as far as I'm concerned, anytime I face someone 1 on 1, they can just permanently declare me as their dodge target (in fact, I think my round 58 opponent has done just that). Doing it every round is only necessary when there's more than one opponent.

[ZaneLaCoix]

That was certainly interesting.
But yeah, it's your win this time around.

That was the only time he had declared dodge on him.

Good luck in the following rounds.

[hustlertwo]

Same to you. Hope you have some money saved, since the next person you fight will have won 300 GP more than you (the bum rap about being the last person knocked from the winner's bracket). Can make for a precarious position.

[Mavian]

High Ref Mav:

Fiorella gets the win and the loot.
