So, because the rules do not state that no facing should be used at all, you think the rules say you should use facing?Caliban said:I'm afraid this isnt' entirely correct. The only time facing is discussed is in relation to combat. Outside of combat the DM is free to adjudicate it in whatever fashion makes the most sense.
Aren't you saying just the opposite?Caliban said:Lack of facing should only "matter" in combat.
You need cover or concealment. What in the description of "large well lit room" implies either?Caliban said:I disagree, I don't think it disallows it at all.
The best solution to sneaking around involves rolling initive, laying out the area on a battlemat, and running the situation from there. This may not be combat, but it does preclude facing as all the rules written for the use of the battlemat state there is no facing.
