Sorry for all the trouble I'm causing :P

I'll edit my post then under that assumption. That way you don't have to worry about that Shaped Consciousness question (for now).

As an alternative to writing down attack rolls against me, you could use the following (fair) solution.

--- Quote ---Assumption 1: The enemy attack roll takes the form 1d20+A, where A is an integer.
Assumption 2: Berak's defence against that attack before using Intellect Fortress is D.
Assumption 3: The enemy attack hits.
Assumption 4: The enemy is capable of rolling D+4.

Given these assumptions we know that the enemy rolled somewhere between D and 20+A.
What we are interested in is whether the enemy rolled between D and D+3 or between D+4 and 20+A.

A fair solution to this would be to generate a random integer X between D and 20+A and checking whether X<D+4 or X>=D+4.

Or equivalently, generating a random integer Y between 0 and 20+A-D and checking whether Y<4 or Y>=4.

Could possibly be easier than writing down numbers.

Malek Deneith:
No, actually I think writing down numbers is still easier >_>

And at a glance at your second question in the PM I believe you are correct (though for Area attacks larger than Area burst 1 the positioning of central square might matter)

Malek Deneith:
I'd just want to point out that since this encounter will end once those two skeletons get offed I am offering a (quite probably) one-time opportunity to touch-up things as you see fit with your characters if you feel something doesn't really work well now that you had a test run.

Oh and I also have figured out a neater way to apply the free bonuses from houserules. It's not a big deal, but I recommend to update the files anyway, since it makes it so bonuses only apply to characters you *want* to have them not all of them. Procedure below:

1. Download https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15336046/4e%20PBF/Extras%20Update.7z
2. Delete "KDM Math Fix.part" from your Custom folder
3. Put the new "Math Fix.part" in Custom folder
4. Overwrite your old "Chaosforge 4e PBF.dndcamp" file
5. Run CBLoader.exe. It'll have to re-merge. Go make yourself a nice cup of tea/coffee while it does so
6. Open your character
7. Go to Management -> Campaign Settings and load "Chaosforge 4e PBF.dndcamp" again. Yes, this is *important*
8. Go to Build -> Backgrounds. Note that below your theme there should be an option to select a background now (six options actually but that's beyond the point, use the first one).
9. Click "General" on your background selection. Then click "A Houserule Math Fix". Like this:



- Final Result:

10. Save your character

And that should be it.

PS. slave, it seems you were correct in your assumptions you can use shaped consciousness to avoid provokin OA. Damn Psions ><

thelaptop:
Okay, I'll apply it later.

Next encounter, remind me to charge to the centre of where everyone is going to charge to so as to have more meat shields while I pew-pew everyone else.  Laser Cleric feels stupid moving first and then applying healing to himself most of the time while trying to tank when he can't friggin' tank.

Well... this is the first time ever I've actually been embarrassed by my achievements in an RPG... Back to the drawing board for me.
