My search-fu turned up nothing on this topic, but it became an issue at my table tonight and I wanted to get some opinions.
If there are two creatures in squares which would grant them a flanking bonus against a third creature under normal circumstances, but they are instead flying 5' off the ground, are they still considered to be flanking? Likewise, if two creatures on the ground are in a position to flank a third creature, but it is instead flying 5' off the ground, are they still flanking it? Let me know if we need diagrams to answer this.
Gracias.
I would say yes. If the two are on 'opposite' sides and threaten the middle hex, then it is a flank.
