[QUOTE="Shallown, post: 4071917, member: 1368"] In the Blade barrier Question I had a Thought and reread the spell. The spell, unlike some, does not grant a free move. So imagine the spell splits a 5 foot square. Therefore someone in that 5 foot square has an option of which side they are on. Why can't they person stay in the square and just be in half the square. Most creatures do not take up all their foot space. This solves lots of other "Issues" with moving. They then choose to stay in the square and continue to be attacked on their action or move out. I wonder how well that would work. Imagine a wall that is micro thin to several inches would levae enough room. If you had treated people squized in half squares (which My group does) then they could stay and be squeezed. On teh Initiative. In that situation I finish that round and then drop into a round by round movement and actions where initiative is no longer in place but what you do is restricted by one round's worth of actions. This actually comes up a fair bit when in places where support or reserves may show up at any Minute (or round in this case). Then it is easier to apply fiarness to the issue. I think that may be a mtter of applying whatever rule the group decides on and using till everyone is use to it and agreeable. D&D covers lots of things but couldn't cover everything its surprising how many "House" rule things just stick after a while and becomes a rule in your mind. Later [/QUOTE]
