Re: Simultaneous combat arena
I will post be posting daily and combat will proceed at that cadence. Please remember to roll all enemy saves as well. Their saves are posted on the main thread. I think we got a good group here. Should be fun.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
All 4 crocodiles are still standing at the end of the round. Please let me know if you want to focus on the same enemy as an ally.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
We started with 4, not 3. How close together are they for AOE purposes, and how many did I tag with my initial Shatter?

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Yep that's my bad. There's 4 of them still. You got 2 with shatter. The two heading out pursuing you guys are pretty close together. One is pursuing the paladin and the last one is at the waters edge with the barbarian restrained.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
First impressions:
+ for a forum rpg its pretty quick to resolve as you don't have to wait for others to post their action
+ there are less decisions for you to make beyond identifying your target and getting to it
+ mounted combat gains a boost as you can have your mount act just when you need it to - even during your own action
- it's a lot harder to visualize the battle
- a lot of initiative abilities are now obsolete and some mechanics like gloomstalkers first strike no longer trigger
- there is no way to avoid damage by tactical movement - hit and run mechanics are out

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Hey, the crocodile has disadvantage on attack rolls to Vai. Because of Blur. Otherwise, I wouldn't have risked getting hit.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Bite still misses. Tail still hits. Thanks for calling it out though. I'll make sure to roll the disadvantage for any further rolls as well.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Probably a reasonable time for a rules question. Great Weapon Master grants a bonus action attack on the same turn if you KO an enemy. When does that attack trigger with simultaneous initiative?

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Vape's AC is 16 (Mage Armor cast in first IC post). I don't know how to get D&D Beyond to display the Mage Armor AC boost while active.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Post is coming tomorrow. I don't typically post over weekends and I have an audition today I need to prep for but once that's out of the way I'll be posting regular the rest of the week.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
Let me know if this works https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1...it?usp=sharing
Squares are 5 ft, arena is 100 ft across. Each turn I will use a line to indicate movement path.

Re: Simultaneous combat arena
May I suggest using something like an Excel sheet for this? It helps to have coordinates
