Special Attacks have special rules and these often conflict with the normal rules.But, several people are disagreeing with you because this is a rules forum and we discuss rules here. The rules you are talking about are pretty clear cut.Playing a more liberal game than what the rules state is fine. But, that doesn't change the rules.Attack Actions and Move Actions are clearly defined game terms which are not the same as attacking and movement.If you are doing an Attack Action, you are (typically) considered to be doing an attack, but there are attacks which are not Attack Actions. For example, an Attack of Opportunity. That is not an action at all. It is still an attack.If you are doing a Move Action, you are sometimes considered to be doing movement, but many Move Actions are not movement. Conversely, there are movements which are not Move Actions. For example, movement as part of a Full Round Action like Charging or Withdrawing does not include a Move Action as part of the Full Round Action.If you want a character to draw a weapon while Charging, take the Quickdraw feat. That is one of the purposes of that feat and a PC should not get part of the utility of that feat for free. Note: The draw a weapon issue is debatable. The text says as "part of a regular move" which implies the Move Action and the Quick Draw feat states as "part of movement". Either interpretation is reasonable, but I like giving the umph to the Quick Draw feat.It's unfortunate that you are taking offense to this, but that is not our intent. Our intent is to discuss rules.</blockquote>
