RE: (TFT) Prone Rule Question

["Eric Coles" <eac42@columbia.edu>]

I've been known to allow some options on a DX roll if the prone figure has
Acrobatics or some decent UC skills.  For that matter, I have an advanced
skill Combat Acrobatics (prereq Acrobatics and a DX level I can't check at
work) that explicitly allows a number of useful options in situations like
that.

Best,

Eric

Die?

I think in this case the prone figure is just plain screwed, assuming all
the standing figures are bigger.  A benevolent GM might give the prone
figure some sort of saving throw against DX for trying to crawl out of the
hex and into another with a standing figure, especially if the standing
figure is facing away and/or engaged with another hex, but that'd be purely
situational.

Realistically, the guy on the ground doesn't have a whole lot of opportunity
to save his hide.
