Take the 2-minute tour ×  Okay, the following situation came up
in a recent game of Pathfinder. Pretend the following are in a
straight line, in a standard 5' grid with their bases touching

minion-> enemy boss -> player  The only creature with extra
reach in this scenario is the summoned creature. Does it
threaten the enemy boss (who is 10' away) and provide flanking
for the player?  The rules state "You threaten all squares into
which you can make a melee attack", which led my group to think
it did indeed threaten the enemy boss. However, we're unclear on
if the enemy minion between the boss and summoned creature
provides cover, and if so, how that might impact threatened
squares.  share|improve this question add comment  2 Answers  up
