OK, just bought the game today. Rather confused about the whole thing, been playing BGII (2nd Ed) for almost 3 years now, so the switch is rather dis-orienting. Basically my question is this:
Is a sneak attack like a backstab? As in, do you have to stealth, walk behind them, then hit? Or does it do it auto-matically? The reason I ask, is because when I'm attacking kegs (love that "smug looking keg") I always get the sneak attack, but when I'm attacking goblins, I have to move behind, then hit.

Thanks in advance.
