Also, Bellis is actually much tougher than me with more wounds, despite my dragon armour. So I'm wondering whether he should be the one to go first. Hmm...

We shall await our glorious leader to decide.

You could always use DM discretion and add a small penalty to diagonal doorway attacks? Say, -2 to the hit roll or something.

Well, in the boardgame room tiles were right up to corridor tiles, so we always treated them as diagonally adjacent.

Unless there's something in the rulebook that states otherwise I reckon it's okay.

The Orcs can wait here all day; they're not going anywhere. Actually, if they can't get the cake recipe out of the Halfling, perhaps they'll just eat him instead... https://i.imgur.com/YPicnM8.png HERO PHASE begin! It appears we have but one choice. One of us must attack that Orc Champion. Should I...

Many thanks my wizard friend. I shall now wreak havoc upon the enemy.

Since Gibby asked us to move on his behalf, I reckon we should decide to leave him stationary for now. He'd be exposed to 3 attacks if he went in.

By the way I choose not to move.

Also, I'd greatly appreciate Paulox buffing me with an armour spell. ¬_¬

EDIT: I'm just checking Gibnar's char sheet. I don't know whether we should send him in to attack the Orc Champion or not. He'd be exposed.

Dang, basic Orc Warriors have more wounds than I do.

I roll:

Roll(4d12)+0:
8,3,11,8,+0
Total:30

Yep I'll attack:

Roll(1d12)+0:
9,+0
Total:9

Ooh, yeah, that 12 means you get one extra. Awesome.

We'll see if Bellis manages to kill it first, then I'll decide what to do. I might just charge in the room tbh.

EDIT: Although I've just noticed one of them is guarding the door, so I'd have to stop there and I'd be exposed...

It's a perfect plan!

By the way, here's the current map, so people don't have to trawl back through the thread:

My understanding, to sum up:

1. Bellis runs to the left of Gibnar.
2. Terence moves one step north.
3. Paulox moves one step north.
4. Gibnar stays put.

Plus, there'll be more gold for each of us to share if we're one person less.

I suggest we use the "Gibby to Be Expendable Human Shield" tactic.
