AC On-the-fly
Another room, more tieflings. We are in a new initiative order, having paused for breath and certainly not to make life easier for the GM, when one charges our elf at the start of combat.
'He hits armour class 14', our GM tells Afutavere.
'That's a miss.'
'He's hitting your flat-footed armour class', our elf is reminded.
'Um, hang on, I need to update my character sheet.' He rubs out one number and scratches in another with his pencil. 'Yep, that's still a miss.'
Combat pauses whilst everyone around the table tries to work out if there were implied air quotes around 'update' in Afutavere's reply, as well as wondering if we could use the same trick at some point ourselves.
