[QUOTE="Leif, post: 5908771, member: 48762"] [b]More movement in combat, from AD&D DMG[/b] Charge: This action brings the charging party into combot on the charge round, but there are a number of considerotions when it is token. Movement Rate Outdoors: Movement bonus for charging in normal outdoor settings is 33%% of base speed for bipedal creatures, 50% for quadrupeds. (Cf. TSRs SWORDS 8 SPELLS.) Movement Rate Indoors: The indoor/dungeon rate is greatly reduced due to the conditions. Therefore, all movement of the charge is double base speed, remembering that [u][B]encumbered creatures are not allowed to charge.[/B][/u] The opponent must be within 10' distance at the termination of the charge in order for any blows to be struck during that round. [B][u]Armor Class of Charging Creatures: There is no dexterity bonus allowed for charging creatures. Creatures with no dexterity bonus became 1 armor class lower, i.e. easier to hit.[/u][/B][u][/u] Thus on AC 3 creature becomes AC 4. There is no penalty to AC 10 creatures for charging, however [/QUOTE]
