Hi all. I was wondering how I should approach a situation where my part encounters a group of enemies with differing rolls and initiatives. From years of Warhammer, my instinct is to break up the encounter into several groups of enemies and go with either average or highest initiative for each.
For example, I hit the party with an encounter containing 2 leaders, 3 archers and a caster. My gut instinct would be to say that the leaders go together with the highest of their initiative bonuses, the archers go together and the caster goes on his own, and I make an initiative roll for each group and then slot them in to the initiative rota like that, so that the leaders move on the same turn, the archers fire on a different turn and the caster... does whatever a caster does in combat on a third turn.
Thoughts?
