conversations:  I will buy a scroll of Expeditious Retreat, Swift [25g]. If you have no other purchases, I will have to ask for your starting position and gear, as I will have LoS on my first turn [not giving much of my plan away there, or anything.] Spoiler it and I'll look after I post my turn.

conversations:  Hah, just noticed the Steadfast Boots.  That was a (probably fatal) mistake.
conversations: Sallera:
conversations: human
conversations:  Heh, least they got used once, instead of just being a deterence. AoO and readied action to attack, doing double damage if hit.
  
    AoO attack  - (1d20+10)[ 26 ] 
    Damage  - (2d4+10)[ 15 ] 
    Readied attack  - (1d20+10)[ 27 ] 
    Damage  - (4d4+20)[ 29 ] 
conversations: 02youeng:
conversations: human
conversations:  You don't get an AoO, which is why I used that one in the first place, but the readied drops me to negatives unless this concealment saves me.
  Concealment, miss on 1:  (1d10)[ 8 ]  ...nope, that's match.  Mayhaps next time I'll remember these things... comes from trying to strategize too far in advance and forgetting everything I worked out. 😛
conversations: Sallera:
conversations: human
conversations:  OK, I assume the readied action thing has something to do with the boots.
  
  So, if Sallera's saying he's deceased, then I guess it's match call time.
  
   Farkis sprints his way to victory! 
  
  Making sure everything is covered here before starting the new match.

conversations:  Sorry for the short game...how does it not trigger an AoO? You need to move through my threatened area to attack me
conversations: 02youeng:
conversations: human
conversations:  If I remember, that maneuver allows one to charge without incurring AoOs or something like that.
conversations: hustlertwo:
conversations: human
conversations:  Aye, movement and the bull rush on Charging Minotaur don't provoke AoOs.
