Can someone please explain how rounds and initiaitive work to Tagan? Clearly I am failing at it despite my past attemtps.<br/><br/>Tagan:<br/><br/>Whenever you see that the last enemy post is more recent than your last post ,you have a turn. Except for surprise rounds, it's really that simple. (When the enemies have a surprise round AND beat your inittative, they'll get 2 turns before your first one. Otherwise it always alternates)<br/><br/>I'm not even sure what you mean by 'after them', presumably your lower initiative. So yes, you're "after them"...but they moved since you moved, so you get to move again. Were you expecting me to prompt you for each of your turns in the OOC thread.<br/><br/>There are no houserules here. If you understand how it works in DnD generally (as you seemed to in your own RP), you understand it here. And it works basically the same way generic PBP does: they post, you post, they post, you post, etc.<br/><br/>There may be cases where I do a post that doesn't constitute the NPC's turn - such as posting to indicate what a PC saw or heard with some movement, divination spell, etc. (possibly whether a PC's attack was successful - an NPC sves or not, etc.) Hopefully it will be obvious from context (by whether the NPCs are each doing a rounds' worth of actions in that post, or it's much less, like just the results of some PC action).<br/><br/>I'll adopt a convention where each NPC turn post ends with an "END ROUND X / BEGIN ROUND X+1".<br/><br/>http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/initiative.htm (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/initiative.htm)
