If 10ft is enough distance to get the speed up for a charge then it should be enough however far you move beforehand.I agree that a Charge is a "special full-round action" and by the rules cannot be readied (which I didn't make clear in my first post), however IMC I do allow it as I find the straight line restriction to be non-sensical when examined. I enforce a simple rule that no more than the first half of your move can involve changes in direction and that at least the last 10ft MUST be an unobstructed straight line.I don't think that this makes charge overpowered as there is always that chance that the target does not meet you conditions (but I enforce conditions that make sense, i.e. the target of the condition must take an action to meet the condition).</blockquote>
