[QUOTE="Felon, post: 4764223, member: 8158"] Actually, people tend to be pretty lousy at making those kinds of distinctions, and in fact they try to only assimilate as much data as they need to get by. "You can move an additional square." "You can move an additional square when you take a move action." A lot of folks would intuitively connect movement with move actions (for reasons that are self-evident, even they're not always accurate), and thus would think the former sentence functionally identical to the latter. You think the difference is that obvious? You have that much faith? By all means then, sit back for a few months and watch how many people think Dominant Winds amounts to all-day flying. So, you have an outdoor encounter with a hydra, purple worm, or some other big nasty, and the flying just zips around shooting it until it dies, with no real risk to life or limb. No prolbem with that at all? [/QUOTE]
