EDIT: Er, I don't think you have to worry about rolling... Glad I got that 1 outta the way, at any rate!

Yeah, the +4 Initiative bonus makes rolling unnecessary. I also ended up not making any additional purchases.

Flipping through your character sheet, I happened across something that won't impact this round, but needs to be fixed.

Your initiative is wrong, you should have a further -2 on it due to your musclebound trait.

From Initiative:
Quote:
At the start of a battle, each combatant makes an initiative check. An initiative check is a Dexterity check.
From Musclebound.
Quote:
You take a -2 penalty on Dexterity-based skill checks and ability checks.
I'll also grab an LoS check before my turn.

Good call. I'll fix it after this match. I'd also like another LOS check before I go.

That attack misses.

Start at N14
Charging Trip Attack with Ranseur*
End on M16, if I'm correct

Touch Attack: (1d20+9)[27]
STR Check: (1d20+10)[20]

If I win, I get a free attack with Improved Trip.

Default Re: Arena Tournament, Round 28: Grall vs. Yoshi

Wait, what? What special ability or feat you have allows to make a follow-up attack? A trip is a standard action and no free attacks are mentioned in its description.

Edit: indeed your right. Always thought it just prevented AoO and gave a bonus to the strength check. Well, in that case, this game seems like a match to me. Your attack bonus doesn't get the +4, but since your opponent is prone, he does get a -4 to AC, so it doesn't really make that much a difference. Also, yes I do think you get the +2 from charge since the description of improved trip says the normal attack functions as if you never made the trip attack.

Winner be Tortoise.
(Unless I am missing something?)

Oops, I knew the 4 came in some way, but I forgot it was an AC penalty, not an attack bonus.
