[Neftren]

Uhh yeah. I believe it is.

[Slash_712]

Use move action to L15. LoS check?

[Neftren]

As part of my readied action above, I take a five foot step to J14 and then shoot you.

(1d20+7)[11] to Hit
(1d6+1)[3] Damage (+1 from Point Blank Shot.)

I'll see how this works...

[Neftren]

I believe I miss, so I'll take the next round's action.

I'll move to I15 and shoot you once more.

Wow, the roller really hates me right now.

Attack - (1d20+5)[10]
Damage - (1d6)[3]

[Neftren]

And I thought the roller was going badly for me... :D

I'll run in a little circle from I15 to J15 to J14 to I14 to I15 then shoot you.

(1d20+7)[23] to Hit
(1d6+1)[4] Bow and PBS Damage + (1d6)[5] Skirmish Damage.

Yeah, That kills me. damn roller.

[Neftren]

Wait, really? Well, good match. I thought you had like, 5 more health...

Woooooaaaaah pony, back up now!

In post 12, Neftren took an illegal readied action. Your action was to shoot, not take a 5' step AND THEN shoot. You could ready for one or the other, but not take both in conjunction.

We need to go back to that round. Heleroen's readied action was never triggered as LoE was never established. Redo that round's actions Neftren.

Also, for both of you, please, please use stat blocks and please do NOT say "same readied action" as then we have to go back up and look up what that same readied action was.

You can take a 5-foot step as part of your readied action, but only if you don’t otherwise move any distance during the round.

Whaddya mean by not having LoE? I'm on K14 and he clearly moves to L15. You're telling me that I don't have LoE?

I took a Five Foot Step as part of the action on his round.

It also really doesn't matter what he does. He's still wielding a bow. That'd be an improvised weapon. The only way for him to kill me would be to get a Nat 20 then Crit on it on his AoO for walking away.

[Bronz]

Alright I admit I maybe wrong on the rules about the 5' step as part of a readied action.

Can you link that?

Ref Terran

It's right here Bronz.

Heleroen is declared the winner and gets the spoils of war.

I hope Heleroen is Neftren's character

[Neftren]

http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/spe...iveActions.htm

And I don't see where I don't have LoE when I fired...

and yes, Heleroen is my character :D

[Bronz]

Thanks Terran. And your 5' step was what was confusing Neftren. Your actual language on your readied action was "if he comes within my LoE". Since you 5' stepped I assumed he wasn't already, and thus the chaos.

But, I am wrong, and I admit it. Thanks Terran for cleaning up the mess.

[Neftren]

Excellent. Now if Naked Dave wins, I can hopefully beat him this time instead of it ending up on a critically hitting AoO to finish it...

[Bayar]

actually, I surrendered....his char scared the **** out of me...so beat up Grez and lets have a round 2 !
